Owning a home for the very first time unleashed my love for decorating. Iām by no means a fantastic interior designer but I really do enjoy shopping around and finding fun things to incorporate into our new home to give it the comfortable, welcoming vibe Ryan and I hoped to achieve.
Our latest undertaking has been our babyās nursery! Between painting the room, assembling furniture, picking out bedding and selecting fun prints to hang on the walls, weāve been working away and having a blast. The nursery is almost done!
Once we hang pictures and play around with the furniture layout, Iāll be sure to share a sneak peek into our babyās space with you guys, but for now, hereās a little behind-the-scenes look into our progress:
Earlier this month, I received and email from Interior Define, a company that offers customizable furniture and beautiful throw pillows at affordable prices, offering me the chance to host a $1,000 giveaway to their website on my blog. A $1,000 giveaway is a hard thing to turn down since I know it will go a long way for one winner and I hope one of you out there who is in the market for a new chair, loveseat or couch will find something you absolutely love on their site! (You can see some of my hand-selected personal favorite items from their site here.)
Interior Define let me select a throw pillow off their website along with a handful of fabric swatches (<ā always complimentary on their site!) that appealed to me to give me a feel for the quality and durability of their fabrics. Ryan and I actually had to send back a chair we ordered online for in our living room because the color didnāt look anything like it did in the pictures of the chair online, so the fact that Interior Define offers free fabric swatches to anyone is pretty awesome, especially if youāre a little timid about ordering furniture online.
The pillow I selected was the Wide Stripe Accent Pillow, which I chose because I thought it would make a great addition to our babyās room and add a little pop of blue to our mostly-neutral nursery.
The pillow fabric is made of a combination of cotton and flax yarn-dyed dobby cloth with 100 percent organic cotton backing and I love the way the blue color popped against the frilly white bedding I chose for the twin bed in the nursery. Since the bedding I picked for the room is admittedly rather feminine, I am a big fan of the way the pillow adds an element of masculinity while still maintaining the comfortable, calming vibe of the space.
So now about that giveawayā¦
Interior Define $1,000 Giveaway
One PBF reader will win $1,000 to Interior Define! Yes, $1,000! This is, without a doubt, one of the most valuable giveaways Iāve ever had the honor of hosting and Iām thrilled to offer it to you guys today!
So, how does Interior Define work? Hereās a simplified breakdown:
-
Interior Define offers customized furniture at an affordable price point (generally 30-40% less than comparable retailers) by maintaining an online presence that cuts out retail markups and follows a made-to-order service model
-
Customers can customize the size, configuration, material, cushion fill, and legs on almost every piece of furniture to fit design needs and preferences
-
Most pieces are available in 40-60 fabric options, and Interior Define offers complimentary swatches
-
Custom options are available online, and additional options are available through the companyās customer concierges over the phone or in person at their flagship store in Chicago
Basically if you see something you like on the Interior Define website but want to tweak it in some way to make it perfectly suit your design needs, they can do that for you! Sweet, right!?
And before you commit to buying a chair or couch from their website, donāt forget that you can request one (or several) of their complimentary swatches to ensure the color and feel of the fabric youāre selecting will work perfectly in your home.
(Can you tell I love neutrals any anything in the sea foam green/blue family right now?)
To enter this giveaway, visit Interior Define, join their email list and pick out your favorite product on their site. Comment below on this blog post with the link to the piece youād buy with the credit if you won! A winner will be chosen randomly next Friday!

I love Lucy!
http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/lucy-linen-198#Z-NATURAL-42
We just moved into our first home last month! Loving the Asher sofa http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/asher-87#Z-URAL-65
THIS SECTIONAL. Oh my word. We are in dire need of a new couch, and this would certainly fit exactly what we are looking for! As for the color, I’m drawn towards the lighter greys or the sea foam! Our leather couch (a freebie from my dad when we moved in together) is pretty uncomfortable overall. We really dislike sitting on it. Thanks for hosting this amazing opportunity/giveaway!

Love the couch posted below! Such an awesome giveaway, Julie! š

This is amazing! I love their website and the color palette selection. http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/kelley#Z-DORMA-41
We’re moving next month & are selling all of our things to cut our moving costs so a couch from Interior Define would be saaa-weet! I’m totally smitten with the Sloan Couch/Chaise in “Deep Sea.” http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/sloan-chaise-rt#JDL-L802-8
I would put it toward the Lucy! http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/lucy-linen-198#Z-NATURAL-42

We are moving into our first home in June and this would be a great addition! š
Oh my gosh, it’s so hard to choose. I LOVE all of their couches and chairs! My husband has a modern style, so we’d probably do the Sloan couch with the chaise. http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/sloan-chaise-rt#JDL-L802-8 We currently have that style in our living room, but are due for a replacement!
Love the pillow you picked for the nursery! I just got accepted into UCF for the fall and I’m getting an apartment there in Orlando! This Sloan couch would look amazing in my new apartment http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/sloan-67#Z-TEXAS-41-A

This site is so neat. Something about the Kennedy Couch (http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/kennedy-198#Z-NOLA-78) really calls out to me – really cool piece. Thanks!
LOVE the Wesley chair and the sloan couch. We bought our first home 2 years ago and remodeled it, but haven’t had the chance to put the finishing touches on a couple of rooms and these would both be great additions!
Can’t wait to see what you did for the nursery!
This is so awesome! I adore the Lucy sofa!!
I need to redecorate! I’d love a new sofa.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Alice Swivel. This chair would look great in my living room!
We are currently decorating our nursery for our first child (due in September)! I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect blue chair and this one would do terrifically: http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/sloan-accent-chair#JDL-L802-27
Harper, harper, harper. With our GSP, Hank we’d probably have to go with the “fog” color for fabric. Dang shedding pets!
http://www.interiordefine.com/harper#Anman-3335-21
I love the Walters sofa with left chaise in the ocean color. So pretty! http://www.interiordefine.com/walters-chaise-lt#Z-DONI-73-A
Ugh – I’ve already fallen in love with the Evans http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/evans-101#Z-RAMON-40-A … definitely checking soon to see if it would be a good fit for our current space. Renting is brutal when it comes to wanting to really to get into decorating!
The Kelley sectional would go great in my living room!
I love the Russell sofa! And I love that they offer free swatches. Our cat has destroyed our living room sofa, so we need to replace it, but stay in the same color family so I don’t have to redecorate the entire room! http://www.interiordefine.com/russell#Anman-3335-22
I would love to do: http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/crawford#Soco-616 this sectional for my upstairs!
I would definitely get the Lucy couch (http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/lucy-linen-198#Z-NATURAL-42).
The neutral color and wooden legs would look great in my living room!
http://www.interiordefine.com/ainsley-chair#Z-AVON-65
My boyfriend and I recently moved into an old farmhouse. We have just finished renovating the entire place, but I have been stuck on what I wanted to do with an empty corner in the living room. The Ainsley chair, in “Laurel”, would be the absolute perfect addition!
I love the Lucy! (http://www.interiordefine.com/shop/lucy-linen-198)
We recently bought a house and have no bedroom furniture to speak of (other than the bed of course). I think the Ainsley chair in Laurel would make for an awesome reading chair in our master bedroom!!
Wow – what a great giveaway! I love the Sloan Sofa with the Chaise:
