Pillow Inspiration № 39

The Hooked Pillow Living Room

How does anyone choose just one? A vaulted, beamed living room built around a whole collection of hand-hooked wool pillows — sailboats, black Labs in red skiffs, a golden retriever, a lobster, a lighthouse — lined up across a cream sectional and spilling out of a wicker storage basket. A distressed blue lift-top trunk plays coffee table, a pair of lighthouse lamps flank the stone fireplace, and a needlepoint village scene hangs beneath a wagon-wheel chandelier. Layer them, swap them by season, and let the pillows tell the story.

Vaulted coastal living room with a cream sectional layered in hand-hooked wool pillows — sailboat, black Lab in a red skiff, seadog, lighthouse — a red golden retriever pillow on a blue striped recliner, a distressed blue lift-top storage trunk coffee table filled with a lobster pillow, a wicker storage ottoman, lighthouse table lamps, a framed Nantucket needlepoint village scene over a stone fireplace, and an iron wagon-wheel chandelier.
