Bed Pillows for Couch Pillows Say What?!?!?

Since me and Ryan are moving on a SERIOUS budget we are taking my moms old couch until we can do better. Its a comfy couch but its in some serious need of some TLC. So thats what i plan do to im going to clean it up, febreeze it and throw a couch cover over it, add some decorative pillows and call it done. Its a cheap and simple way to make something old look new!

Now onto the title of my post. As most of you know i work at Sears in the mall and as a cashier i work in all different departments but this week Ive been in home fashions only. Which this is dangerous for me since im moving and need to stay on budget but im resisting temptation pretty well until i seen the most adorable bed pillows on clearance for $4.99 each plus an additional 40% off on top of my discount! I couldn't resist, ok well maybe i could of so i put them on hold and looked at them for my entire shift wondering if bed pillows could be used as couch throw pillows. 

The answer to my question is YES! If you really think about it why do some pillows just have to be for one or the other? Its not like someone is going to come over to your house and look at them and say "oh aren't those suppose to be used for bedding?" If they do they must really be picky. I could understand if you had the matching bedspread in your room but if you find a good deal on them like i did especially on clearance most of the time there are only bits and pieces of the bed set left or like in my case there were only three of the pillows left. 

(I'm going to bring out the dark brown in them by doing a dark brown couch cover (pictured above) since these are mostly light brown.)

After much deliberation, and looking at them all day i finally decided to get them..... until i got back to the register after my lunch to discover they were GONE! i totally freaked out and went into panic mode (a little over dramatic i know) when all of a sudden one of my sweet co workers Emma came walking up behind me holding a big gift bag. I asked her what that was and she said a housewarming gift for you and ryan for when you move and when i opened it there were my pillows. I dont think i have ever had a job that I have connected with so many people and made so many friendships but its the little things in life that matter most. So if you want to use couch pillows as bed pillows or vise versa do it! You only live once why not enjoy the small but odd things in life?
