“Confessions of a Throw Pillow Addict”

 Let’s be honest — no one needs 17 throw pillows. But here I am, sitting on the floor, because the couch is full of "decor."

I started with one. Just one. A cute, innocent little gray pillow that whispered, “I’m cozy and minimal.” But like all great tragedies, it escalated quickly. Before I knew it, I was in a deep Pinterest hole at 3 AM, googling things like “velvet boho throw pillow covers for autumn vibes.”

Throw Pillows: The Gateway Drug
First, it’s pillows. Then it’s decorative trays. Suddenly you're arguing with your partner over whether the gold pineapple statue is chic or completely unnecessary (it’s both).

The Candle Cult
Don’t even get me started on scented candles. I lit one and felt so powerful, I bought seven more. Each one smells like “morning dew on a Himalayan goat farm” or “stress relief via lavender and lies.”

Do I Actually Use My Cheese Board?
Absolutely not. But does it look amazing on my kitchen counter with three fake lemons and a tiny fake succulent? Yes. Yes, it does.

So here’s to that neon pink vase you didn’t need, that abstract art print that makes no sense, and the 12 throw pillows that now live on your bed. Your house may be a showroom of random beauty — but it’s your random beauty.


Want me to write more in this style? I can do specific accessories next — rugs, mirrors, plants, or even “things nobody needs but still buys at HomeGoods.”
