Gracious Greens

Friends I’m certainly craving green these days… the weather has been iffy - I’m not sure why every year I think March will be warm - because it is most certainly not. We have sprung forward yay and the days are longer. Spring is coming this Sunday and I know we’re all ready for it. This week I’m sharing a COLOR STORY filled with images that spoke to me.

Gap Home

Recently my Instagram friend Marcie Millholland paid me a lovely compliment sharing how she enjoys my blog and that I’m not selling anything. Marcie thank you my dear and to be clear friends - I’m not selling anything with today’s post either.

I used a few pieces from Gap Home for Walmart in my son’s bedroom refresh and most of you know I keep it real in the Chalet and with clients - the reality is - if you can find an item to meet your needs from At Home, Target or Walmart - why wouldn’t we purchase it?

The Ottoman and Pillow are from Gap Home

I’m so impressed with these items from the Gap Home for Walmart. The ottoman supports weight and is very sturdy - it has a zipper so the cover is removable. The pillow’s poly insert is thinly distributed and much less dense than most poly inserts so it resembles feathers in appearance and the texture reacts nicely like an actual feather filled pillow. It has a zipper so this cover is also removable.

I have to share I’m a Gap fan. I worked for Gap as a window dresser and in store management. I still have pieces in my wardrobe I pull out and wear from years ago because Gap always meant quality. That is what pushed me to add this post to my editorial calendar…how could I not talk about these pieces.

Frayed Denim Decorative Square Throw Pillow

The color stories in the collection center on Beige/Blue/ Grey/Yellow with a smattering of patterns. It feels basic in the very best way - what’s more Americana than denim?
