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

    No real lucky charms, but I am pretty superstitious so I do the knock on wood thing a lot.

    I developed a habit of making sure to put my right shoe on first. I heard when I was in middle school that by putting the left shoe on first you were welcoming bad luck.

    I’M FEELING LUCKY! I don’t think I do anything to increase luck, except I try not to “jinx” anything. For instance, if I’m hoping something will/will not happen, I don’t let anyone talk about it!

    I’M FEELING LUCKY

    I’ve never been a lucky person and don’t really have anything to do to make myself luckier.

    I love all the pillows, but am very attracted to the numerous yellow ones.

    I’M FEELING LUCKY

    For the really important things/events in my life, I call up my grandpa and ask him to pray for me. So I guess, in a way, he is my lucky charm… :)

    And I absolutely love the pillows with the muted green geometric pattern in the second pic!!!

    My lucky charm…. is a good luck kiss from my husband to be!!! I particularly like the blue pillows, goes with the subtle beach cottage theme we’re going for. The purple/lilac ones are so cute for spring! I can see some hydrangeas in a white vase on the coffee table… OOPS! Dreaming already!!

    I try to always keep a good attitude about things and to be very observant. That way I can recognize opportunities that present themselves. I also tend during meetings to sit at the opposite corner to the door, so that I am the first face attendees see when entering the room. It helps me set the mood and gives me a kick in confidence when presenting. I think its a feng shui thing.
    I love the green accented pillows in the second picture.

    I’M FEELING LUCKY! I adore the Trina Turk Santorini cushion and especially the magenta Ikat cushion. I love pink, even though the tomboy inside me hates admitting it.

    My lucky charm is my mom. Well, I don’t know if she is my lucky charm or just really wise and keeps me motivated to do the right things and make the right moves in my career. Either way she’s all mine and love her!

    “I’M FEELING LUCKY” I either have great luck or no luck at at all, it almost comes in spurts. I really like the Urchin Print Cushion, so great, but I always choose those neutral colors, so another I loved were the Irish Linen Damask Print Cushion.

    My good luck charm is a cross necklace from Tiffany and Co. that my grandfather gave all of the women in my family one Christmas. My grandmother also had one, and when she passed away it was passed on to my cousin’s baby girl. It always reminds me that my grandmother is watching over me, and it makes me feel connected to all of the amazing women in my family!
