Vintage 1901 Hereford Bull pillow

 I have a thing for pillows. I like them exotic or vintage or souvenir or whatever. They just add a level of comfort and luxury to a room. I've got a couple dozen just in our sitting room. From time to time I do list them on Etsy. Here are a few of my current favorite. Click on the caption (not photo) to go to the listings for each pillow.

Color is the most important thing to coordinating a pillow. You don't want it to match exactly. Rather it should go. The pillow above has so many different shades of green and blue, it could go with a room that prominently features just one of the colors in it.
