Which Pillow Covers?

17 years ago

These RH pillow covers are up for auction and I'm in a bit of a quandry.

As some of you've read I've been knocking out rms. left and right w/ paint colors (or neutrals as the case may be). The colors are BM Porcelain Ivory, Jonesboro Cream, Strathmore Brown and SW Caviar (black). LOVIN IT, LOVIN IT, LOVIN IT! My pick up color is green. My favorite. A nice mossy, brownie green.

I've been half heartedly looking at pillow covers for my throw pillows but it's not a neccessity right now so it hasn't been a hardened search. Then I came across these covers. I just don't want to be wasteful w/ my money.

RH pillow covers that seller described as yellow (I've e-mailed the seller to find out which yellow as RH has Butter, Goldenrod, etc. because if it's a more brown based yellow I think that they could work. I just don't want YELLOW, yellow. KNow what I mean? If it looks like more like a brown yellow I'm good w/ it.

Yellow. If they are more on the brown side then I would have a nice relatively monochromatic look in the LR.

Green (and would you pay $30 + $12 S&H for the green - it is for 2 covers). I remember these from before and I admired them then.

I'm not much help, but they look very yellow on my screen. Even the green looks yellow green to me. Sorry! Your rooms as described sound fabulous though! I'd love to see pictures if you have them!

Don't know how much help I can be, either.

They don't look bright to me and would go great in my house! I like mixing some cooler yellows and greens with the warmer ones.

I wouldn't blink. Those are gorgeous and it's a great price, imo. Are they velvet? Too bad for so much S&H but it's still a great price.

Striped ones aren't my style but they're OK for what they are.

Those green ones are gorgeous.

Who is auctioning the green covers? Are they brand new?

I would say that the first two sets of covers are definitely on the yellow side - based on how the colors look in relation to the brown stripe.

If you have seen the green covers and admired them, the price of $21 per piece isn't bad. Are the designs embossed, or is it burn-out velvet? Can't really tell. Where will they be used, and will they be the only pillows? I ask because I think it would be hard to pair them with anything but a plain pillow, which might be something to consider.

I really like the first 2, and they look like a nice, warm butter yellow on my screen (but my monitor isn't always the best indicator of color).

I just got back from dinner an a movie and the green ones are gone. That's not nice. I'm ging to pass on the others. The seller e-mailed me and told me that they are on the butter side. I just don't want to chance me not being mostly thrilled and then being out the money.

Oh, well!

I also liked the green ones and I used to not like green and now shades of green are calling to me. I am sorry you missed out but maybe something even nicer will be available.
