apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Janel--

I knew you had "curated" this collection before I even saw your name on the post. The surprise was that all these things came from Pier One. Which just goes to prove anyone can get a great look just about anywhere if you have a great eye.

Happy Fall!

Actually this is "post-Brady", circa 1977, Carter administration, reccession, energy crisis,20% interest rates...it all makes sense now.

I bought the geometric pillow from Pier One just last week! I had been stalking it online for a few weeks because it's obviously a knock-off of the way out of my price range bargello chevron pillow by Jonathan Adler. Finally went into the store and snatched one up.

I love my new pillow!

I think I like the knock-off one better, alpha!

Yes, anyone can get a great look if they have a good eye and Janel certainly does, but the quality at Pier One is typically a step down from poor. I wouldn't buy anything there no matter how pretty it looks in a picture.

I have the floral curtains in sand and love them. They look great in my living room and add a nice presence to the room. I think the quality it just fine. I recommend ironning them before you put them up.

I've purchased plenty of accessories over the years and there has never been an issue with the quality of them, especially relative to price.

I might not buy a couch from Pier One, but their dishes aren't bad. Their candles and pillows are quite nice.

Yes, I purchased a dining table set from Pier1 and am not too happy with the quality of construction, though the finish is nice. But I think their accessories are great.
