Ever since I moved into my Boston apartment and purchased all new furniture I’ve been trying to find new throw pillows for my sofas. The couches came with “free” pillows that were seriously the ugliest things I’ve ever seen in my life. Love the couches… not so much the pillows. I always keep my eyes open for new ones but I am constantly changing my mind, can’t commit, and never feel like spending tons of money on something I know I’ll want to change when I find something even better (wow, it sounds like I need therapy… hmm). So when I stumbled across Toronto based Tonic Living and saw their wide selection of retro print throw pillows for incredibly reasonable prices, I got a little excited and immediately started searching for pillows that would match my sage”ish” colored sofas. [They're also stuffed with hypoallergenic synthetic fibers which is key for me!] My favorites so far:
They also have a greaaaat selection of fabrics, if you wanted to go all out and make your own pillow covers… or I might get ambitious and purchase some to stretch over canvas to create artwork! Favorite fabrics:
pretty pretty.

I love the pillows! We should immediately purchase some
Wow, ditto. Love my sofa, hate my pillows. I’m erring toward MAKING pillows. Birds please:)
Why did you post a link to Tonic Living? I want EVERYTHING. And really? I need to spend more money on things like pillows about as much as I need a hole in my neck. Grrr.
Ooo! These are *hot*! Yet another great thing to come outta Canada – love it!
Pillow shopping will keep me busy for the rest of this snowy morning
