Fab Freebie: Plum Luck

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries.***

Sometimes you just need a few good pillows to make things better. Okay, maybe they won’t be life-changing, but the right pillow can definitely be sofa-changing. And that’s why we feel lucky to have Plum Cushion as this week’s giveaway sponsor.

Plum Cushions Three Pillows

Melanie’s spot-on taste in fabrics- from Kelly Wearstler to Liberty of London- combined with her knack for all-things sewing creates a finely curated collection of handmade pillows that amp up the style-factor of any sofa. Just check out how much the character of the same couch can change with a few simple pillow switcheroos:

Plum Cushion Three Couches

And this week one of you is gonna score $150 toward any pillow(s) in Plum Cushion’s Esty Shop, so on Thursday we’ll be wishing someone “Happy Cushion Shopping!” while the rest of you will score a nice little discount (so stay tuned for that). Here are all the freebie deets:

  • PRIZE: $150 toward any pillow(s) in Plum Cushion’s Esty Shop
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M FEELING LUCKY” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about your lucky charms, rituals, routines or anything else you have/do to increase your luck. Oh, and we’d love to know if there’s a particular pillow that catches your eye.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 12th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The lower 48 United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    I’m feeling Lucky!

    I used to be a runner, and I had to eat the same thing during race morning. Toast no butter but jelly and a banana. That was more so I did not puke than luck, but it certainly because a ritual!

    And green is my lucky color … sort of a ritual I guess, so I love the bold green chevron pillows shown in the first “sofa photo” shown … actually, I really like all the pillows used for that picture. For me the chevron pattern is a “neutral” so I’d probably mix it will other prints like shown in the picture.

    I’M FEELING LUCKY! I used to have to pray for my family’s safety every night before bed and repeat everyone’s name in a certain order. After our family started to get bigger, I just couldn’t keep up with it – now I just say “my family.” I think the Lord gets that!

    I don’t have any particular rituals. But usually I’m the luckiest when I’m not wishing for something. Good things happen to me when I’m not expecting it.

    On a side note…I’m a total pillow lover! Some people redecorate a room around wall art or a piece of furntiture they love. I get inspired by pillows and will base entire room themes around one pillow that I feel in love with!

    No rituals, but I do say “knock on wood” alot and then tap my own head. Kinda quirky, huh.

    I love the green flowered pillow in the first picture! Green is an accent color I use in just about every room in my house!

    Luck just runs in the family. As horrible as this sounds, we all just love to play cards or go to the casino (I promise we aren’t crazy) and everyone always walks out ahead. We went when I was pregnant and my little bean was just dancing away. So it’s in her genes too!!

    P.S. Love your blog and so excited to meet your new little bundle!!

    When I’m driving on the freeway, and change lanes without hitting any of the ‘lane divider bumps’ I always consider it a lucky day.

    And I am DYING for those green lattice pillows in the top photo. I’ve been looking to make some drapes out of that fabric if/when I can find it for a steal. These pillows would be an amazing prize.

    I don’t have any particular luck-making tricks, but when I’m eating skittles or something multi-colored, I always save my favorite colors for last. I don’t know what that has to do with luck, but it’s a random thing that I do do.

    Oh, and I think the brown Jim Thompson pillows would look lovely in my living room!

    My usual routine for luck is to work really hard and if I’m “lucky” that hard work will pay off. I’m really digging the pair of Kelly Wearstler teal confetti linen pillows for the sofas at my fiance’s house. My mission is to transform the condo from his to ours.
