I scored a terrific bargain last weekend at Anthropologie that I’m excited to share with you. These Kapali Euro Shams that I have always loved were on clearance for $7.95 each — down from $48.00!
For as long as long as I’ve been admiring this collection at Anthropologie, I’ve never considered actually buying any piece of it because it’s not the right fit for either of our bedrooms and they were pretty pricey. But there’s something about a bargain that gets the creative juices flowing for me and it didn’t take long to envision them in our living room!
Why not, right?

The colors are perfect as I continue to layer in shades of orangey-red. The oversized graphic detail balances the scale of some of my smaller throw pillows with the large patterned rug and newly painted foyer wall. Come to think of it, that striped bolster is stuffed with standard bed pillows, too. I promise no one in our home is sleeping on the couch, unless you count the dog.
Best of all, I can throw these shams in the wash, which means I don’t have to debate with my husband about why I’d prefer him to not rest his head on that pillow, or that one, or that one…

Beautiful shams at the right price and nice use of them beyond the bedroom. Yeah, I love those conversations about gentle usage of the furniture accessories. “I love you hun but could you please use a coaster, not put your feet on that, not lay on that all the time in that position because eventually it *will* sag, not flop down on the bed so hard, not lean back all the way in the office chair.” Great for a marriage.
Those look great in your living room! Great idea and great score on such a lovely item!

What lovely shams! What adorable pooch! I have to vicariously swoon b/c my hound/terrier mix will dissect any pillow or stuffed object. I’ll buy a Kevlar sofa as soon as it’s available.
I love it! It looks completely lovely in your living room!
