This Palin Change Pillow by artist Lauren Frances Adams is part of the Pro/Con Political Craft exhibition at Rebus Works gallery in Raleigh, NC.According to her artist statement:
Utilizing visual humor, Adams recalls typical domestic situations to explore political vacillations and permeability of red-versus-blue mentality. Adams is particularly interested in presenting situations that examine American consumerism, nationalist military defense, and political identity.

I consider myself "a creative," but it simply baffles me how inventive Danny Seo is. He seems to just ooze creativity, always devising original ways to decorate his digs in style without paying a price tag for it. His latest is achievement is a pillow he decorated with safety pins, of all things.

For most of us, the letters AA conjure up thoughts of the 12 Steps, morning-after remorse, or booze-filled Augusten Burroughs memoirs. But, when you're talking about Angela Adams, the letters connote all kinds of goodness. This time, it's pillows.

I've shown you some rugs by Sweden-based design/art studio Henzel before, and you were pretty split over whether you loved them or hated them. Several of you expressed that although they would make a great focal point in a room, it might be hard to integrate them. Well, Calle Henzel has created a collection with that same bold presence in a smaller dose, which just might be the next best thing: the Henzel Art Pillows (inquire for price).

In case you haven't noticed, I've had Morocco on my mind all year long. I've never met a Moroccan-style furnishing I didn't like, and the Wrapables Morocco Throw Pillow ($39, reduced from $52) is no exception. I love its vibrant medallion-patterned embroidery, and how the bright colors contrast boldly with the cream-colored background.

I've got to hand it to Jonathan Adler for bringing needlepoint back. The technique is no longer reserved for wasp-y belts or occupational therapy, but is now giving living rooms an ironic punch of whimsy and color. The Jonathan Adler Harlequin Pillow ($175) has a bright, graphic pattern based on a harlequin's traditional costume that will instantly liven up your living room sofa or chair.

Just in time for the fireworks, the Vivre American Flag Pillow ($32, reduced from $80) can be yours for as many dollars as stars on our flag in 1858. Hopefully you like your dose of national pride in pink, because that's the only color available; I think Pop would certainly be a fan. Does anyone find it funny that this pillow is made in France?

Crewelwork is a decorative form of surface embroidery that uses wool and a variety of different embroidery stitches, and dates back at least one thousand years. But, the technique was trendy in the '90s (think granny tapestry), and has been "out" for at least ten years now. When I spotted this Urban Outfitters Painted Circle Crewel Round Pillow ($25, reduced from $38), I was impressed with the modern use of crewelwork in bright colors, dashes, and organic circles.
