Take 5 Thursday #1

This is a new series feature each Thursday to help me kick start bloging again on a semi-regular basis.  Thanks for sticking around!  Take five is something you can do in 5 minutes to help make your home a better, more relaxed place.  This could be anything from adding a decoration to a quick cleaning touch up.

Take 5 #1

Throw pillows can make a blah couch much better.  This is the hand-me-down couch we got from my grandma.  It is a sleeper, (which is awesome for company) as well as looks 1,000,000 times better than our old couch, which I swear was from the 70's and we got for free from another couple who had gotten it for free from someone else.  Anyways, this couch is a vast improvement!  The pillows left something to be desired however.

Enter two pillow cases from Ikea that were very cheap, and put the sad pillows into the happy red pillow cases.

And the couch becomes a happy comfy couch, in just a short 5 minutes.

New pillows or covers for your old pillows can completely change the feel of a room, and make it fresh with just a few minutes of your time.
