Decor to Die For: You're such a pouf! No we mean it in a nice way! We heart Moroccan Poufs!

Uggghhh how much we super and crazy uber heart Moroccan Poufs hurts! No really...it hurts!

How do you convince a boy that they are amazing and belong in your house?

You can literally put an amazing pouf anywhere in your home to brighten up your space in a totally functional way.

There are sooo many different types of Moroccan poufs out there....where do we begin?

Hmmmmm....how about with a bit o' inspiration for us all...then we shall show you a few of our TDF faves...OK...let's GO!

**Beware...this post is muy picture heavy...but that's OK right...right? 'Cuz seriously who wants to read so much today? **

You can not talk about nouveau Moroccan poufs (MPs) with out talking about (and obsessing over) John Derian...The King of the modern Decoupage.

He could possibly be the reason poufs are back in such a big way...

LOVE the mix of purple, crisp white, and bright pink...not to mention the rad lucite coffee table...

Now... although Mr Derian's poufs are gorge and just called both of our houses asking if they can come home and sit by our windows and fireplaces...they are pretty pricey...

Gosh...the mix of classic meets cosmopolitan meets bohemian chic is TDF and sooo chic! It says..."Oh I love to pick up things here and there while I sail around the world"

So guess what? No, it is not a DIY...(scroll down...the DIY is later)...Tazi Designs makes beautiful poufs too and for about $100 less...wooo hooo!

We are in Heartland with their metallics

And these ridiculously stupidly amazing embroidered lovelies!!!! These are dying to be somewhere near us...

A sickly talented and stunning friend of ours has a couple of these...Hmmmm wonder if she will notice if both of them are gone...They are sooo yummy it's totally worth smuggling them out...

John and now Tazi's poufs are soooo fantastic, they come in soooo many colors and sizes...

Here are a few of the ways to use their gorgeous poufs that we are obsessing about...seriously...OBSESSING!!!

Bye bye odd ceramic garden stools being used as end of the bed stool/benches....hello stunning use of MPs.

Dear FGF Kelly W,

Hi there by now your restraining order against us is probably being filed but before we agree to sign, can we just tell you...WE LOVE THESE limey green MPs in the most chic kids room ever!

Only you can mix light green poufs with light blue, rolled arm, tuffted, nailhead chairs...ugly dolls and an upholstered sleigh bed and make it look perfect! Sooo good!

If you are not ready to board the train to Moroccan Poufville but still love the look of soft stools...here are a few newbies to take a gander at...

Kilim is back in a big way and here is the Kilim take on the pouf...

This would look amazing in a white modern space...

Speaking of modern...Paola Lenti makes weatherproof "knit" plastic pouf that is spectacular...
Love it used as a table or poolside seat!

Ikea makes some great woven wood ones if Paola's don't do it for you or your wallet...

Hello super inviting chunky knit poufs from DWR?!?!? Sooo nautical meets modern chic and cozy!

Don't feel like spending $800 (on sale for $800) smackers? Make one yourself! See told you we had a DIY...

Hey don't laugh...it can look like this one the DIYer made herself...

Be a stylish lover....hug a Pouf today...then put it anywhere in your house and dare your friends not to steal your style ;)

xoxo things we heart

P.S. I just noticed we lied about the whole not reading thing...there are a lot of words here...oh well...they were for a good cause...

Decor to Die For: And it was all yellow... We heart yellow room accents...

Remember that super cute post a while back that featured the super happy color yellow?

Yup...that's the one!

Well we certainly remember it and have been a wee bit obsessed with all things yellow ever since...well from that and the picture we can't get out of our head of the yellow four poster Ikea bed...

Sooo cheery right? It's like a breath of fresh air. Imagine that with crispy white sheets....ahhhhhh I'm getting sleepy....

A pop of yellow in any room can be a super unexpected twist. It can liven up any space and make it fresh.

Lately we have been having a design crisis in one of our rooms...it's a beautiful shade of Tiffany Blue with black floors, white drapes and black furniture...but we were totally stumped as to why it still didn't look perfect.

Then it came to us...PAINT THE BED YELLOW!!! hee hee...we just got crazy happy even thinking about ;)

So we were off to convince the BF to let us spray paint the black iron bed bright yellow.

Wanna see how we did it???

OMFG!!! This grey room becomes perfection once the vintage (and repainted) sunshine yellow desk is introduced.

Ugghhhh it's soooooo good!!!!! (loving the MW rug too!)

Oh and speaking of Madeline Weinrib rugs... This grey room is gorgeously balanced with a divine B&W Madeline rug and a crazy cute pop of yellow from the side table.

Love how the yellow catches you and really changes the whole vibe of the room. Oh and you may remember our lurve of this room from our much hearted Grey post.

Feeling frisky?
The UK designer Amanda Nisbet serves up the boldest settee we have seen in a while (well at least since the S&M post). The bright yellow against the white of the frame is so charming yet totally doable. Picture this in one of your white rooms you don't know what to do with. You're welcome :)

Oh cuteness! There you are!!!!!

Any room could use a pouf in yellow. It's super inviting to have Moroccan poufs all around...it lets friends know they can kick back and relax...and to have one in yellow? Soooo welcoming!

Toss anywhere... ooooh it would look really yummy on a black and white rug!

Here is another bit o' inspiration for you. Yellow, turquoise, black and white....yummmmers!

While modern glam may be on it's way out...just ask the Goddess Kelly Wearstler...these colors never will be. Imagine this room with more modern pieces but in the same colors and you are GTG!

Just don't let us in the room or we will steal everything.

Here is a great indoor/outdoor garden stool for those who are a bit timid of the bold and brightness of yellow.
Pop this stool anywhere in your room for extra ooomph and pop.

If you are ready to get even more wild and crazy...Miss Weinrib has the rug for you.

Her lemon yellow Toile rug is perfect for anyone...any room.
You couldn't help but be happy with this bright rug anchoring your great space. The yellow will modernize your room while the Toile pattern will help you bring the space together if you have more vintage-y or traditional taste.

Ikea???? NO! YES!!!!!

Loving and obsessed with this yellow side board...
We are trying as we write to find the perfect place for this unbelievably cheery, fun, yummy, bright and smile inducing side board in our home.

Oh...PS when you see this in my bedroom (cross your polished fingers!) plllleeease don't tell the boy where you saw it :). Thanks!

Oh FBF, Jonathan Adler...we love you and your Design Your Own section...we feel just like you!

Well with out the crazy amazing talent and ridiculous amazing stores around the country....

But still we feel really creative...
Can't wait to get this yellow and pink heart pillow. It's going to look uber good on our white chairs. It will be the perfect pick me up in the grey days of Winter.

Anthro!!!! Why did you take this crazy cheery vintage-y chair away from us????

The mixture of old school English charm with the brightness of the '60s ish yellow is the perfect combo.

Make your own! Go to your local flea market...grab a cute, comfy chair...then pop over to your local fabric store and get to work! Cute city!!!

Feeling groovy are we? Yup we are...this rad yellow side table makes us want to get a spray tan and run around the house with a bikini on (and the heater).

It's sooooo Palm Springs meets flea market chic... Put next to your bed with books stacked on it for a, "Haaahhha...I just love the flea markets in Paris. Why yes...that is where I got this beautiful table. No, I just painted it myself in my spare time...Then I read all day and put my novels here for a nap"

Lookin' for a more modern side table to smile at when you walk into the room? Look no further than this cutey mcgoo from Inside Ave.
Still feeling like you wanna DIY it but need a wee bit more inspiration...
Yummy yummy sunny sunny....They took a great little garden bench, spray painted it with yellow metal paint and made a cushion for it and voila! Unbelievable greatness!

We found a couple of metal paints for you creative go-getter decor obsessed lovelies....
Rustoleum Gloss Protective Enamel

and

Krylon H2O Latex paint.

Easy and Peasy!!!!

Brighten up!!!! Go Yellow!!!
