Pier 1 Possibilities

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pier 1 for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

As each new season approaches, Pier 1 is thee store I go to for inspiration and decor! It’s been a long time favorite of mine, and this season is certainly no exception.

Because I like texture throughout my house, I often use outdoor furniture inside my house. I gathered some of my favorite “summer” items from Pier 1, and it looks like an indoor room, right?! You could easily use any of these pieces inside or outside.

Summer is certainly not the longest season when you live in Michigan, so I love that Pier 1 offers timeless (or in this case, season-less) serving ware. It’s fun, festive, and summery, but I could easily use it anytime of the year.

And finally, how can a neutral-loving girl embrace the color of summer decor? My advice…use small pops of it. It’s no secret that I love the softer hues of items, but there are definitely moments where I need—dare I say desire—some color. In order to keep myself from breaking out in hives, I keep the items small.

I may or may not have bought every single one of these items this weekend. Looking at them all together seems like a LOT of color, but just imagine them as an adorable and fresh accent throughout a whole house. I’m too excited!

                                  

                                     

                                      

If you plan on being in any of the following locations, they are hosting another Pier 1 Tweetups! I am missing out on it, but you could certainly attend! Have fun and tell us all about it!

 

And finally, how can one resist some extra spending money--especially when it comes to a favorite store! Click on the link to see where you could be the possible winner of $500 from Pier 1! contest rules

    I love Pier One also. I go there to get some of my dishes and I always check out their pillows as well. Although I love Anthropologie for their colorful bowls, I get mine at Pier One because they are just as good and more affordable.

    Thanks,
    Laura @ Enjoying the simple things

    I love Pier 1, but don't usually buy anything because I find them to be a tad bit pricey. They do have some unique items.

    I do love Pier 1 but they need to lighten up on their prices. Crate and Barrel and HomeGoods are sometimes much better.
