Those pillows look perfect on that sofa. Could not have done a better job myself.

Same as Word&Eggs ! I was worried for a few seconds. My taste is known to be dreadful (I’m actually embroiding pillows I own, in a kenzo-ish way), but I really thought those pillows were stylish.

I also agree with Sophie S: yes, ugly pillows have crossed the ocean to Europe. My mother-in-law owns some interesting homemade rags from the 60’s with an fake Egyptian motif… so cute !

I’m excited anyway to see the submissions !

I could scream…I just last week discarded (with great pleasure) a very ugly, squashed “hooked rug” owl pillow w/one missing huge green googly eye made many years ago by my mom…but, to my surprise, inside was a rather cute needlepoint Scottie dog w/a red bow. I’m keeping him.

The bench & sofa are both vintage pieces we found on eBay. We had the sofa professionally re-upholstered and redid the bench ourselves.

Bring on the ugly pillows :)
