This post brought to you by Pier 1. All opinions are 100% mine.
A couple months ago, Pier 1 invited me to stop into their 5th Ave store to take photos of my favorite holiday wares. It was so much fun that I jumped at the chance to stop in again to see their new spring line. And guess what? Pier 1 is offering up a $500 gift card to one of you lucky readers!
Want to see what caught my eye at Pier 1? I was pretty impressed by their outdoor furniture line. We have a rooftop deck and I think some of these pieces would look great up there now that the weather is warming up. I loved this pretty rattan chair with the creamy white cushion:

And aren’t those velvet pillows pretty? They’re an additional 20% off right now. (PS if you sign up for the Pier 1 Outdoor newsletter, you’ll get additional sale info and coupons)

I also loved this wing back style wicker chair:

There was a settee in this style too that I also really liked.

For my outdoor space, I would mix a pair of one of the rattan chairs from above with a couple of fun accents chairs, like this scrolled peacock chair:

Or a pair of these teal lacquered arm chairs:

I also really liked this little wooden accent chair:

I would also throw in a fun outdoor rug or two:

And speaking of rugs, I really loved this wool ombre rug:

I was impressed with the quality of the wool given the price…

There were some really fun accessories at the store too, like this backgammon table:

And these enamelware canisters in a pretty mint/jade color. I like the more modern font.

I couldn’t resist buying one of these beautiful bowls.

They sort of remind me of a giant clam, but are a little more functional and can be used in the kitchen. Also these would be great for larger flower arrangements.

I really love these marbled glass tumblers, but I couldn’t decide between the acid yellow or the cornflower blue.

Cute resin coasters for a summer bbq!

I picked up a set of these porcelain mushrooms for the built-ins in my girls room:

Wouldn’t this chest of drawers be great painted or leafed?

I love the serpentine shape.

There were some really amazing chair offerings at Pier 1. Check out this bergere style arm chair:

The quilted paisley fabric feels very Anthropologie, but at a fraction of the price.

Sort of a rustic Louis style chair:

This is one of my favorite finds of the day. $160 for a really lovely slipper chair. The pattern on the fabric will mix really well with other patterns and colors.

This chair was another favorite. It was really comfortable and a complete steal at $370. I would put a pair in a living room with a solid, more neutral sofa. I would also add some brass casters to the feet.
Isn’t that fabric fun? And I love how it pairs with the Lulu DK-esque brown velvet pillow (which is on sale for $18).

  1. So many fabulous things to choose from! I would get the Marchella dining table for sure and then probably a couple of their lamps.

  2. I would put it towards the Carmen sofa or possibly the Liliana floral chair or the Zahir Arm Chair or Honeycomb Mirror or the Peacock rug or a combination of throw pillows. Wow! Lots of great stuff. What a great giveaway.

  3. Wow, fun!! I have a weak spot for accent chairs and I love all the ones you posted! I love the ombre rug and would have to grab some velvet pillows too! Thank you!!

  4. Chairs, absolutely! I have a wonky dining set that could use some new chairs!!! … a ton of picture frames and tabletop decor. -Renee

  7. Oh, I love wandering around Pier 1! I would buy lots of fun little accent pieces like the Wood Carved Rocking Horse or the Metal Ferris Wheel. I also like the Hibiscus Wing Chair and the Bookseller Magazine Table. Some outdoor furniture or glasses would be nice too.

  8. What a great giveaway! I would love to get the twisted wood floor lamp, the Giraffe chair and the spice route dinnerward in nutmeg.

  9. Oooh! I love the Massena Bench. I'm starting from scratch in my new NYC apartment and want shabby chic. I think with a beautiful fabric cushion, this would be great for extra seating in my teeny tiny studio :)

  10. I have been coveting their chocolate tufted rug for MONTHS! So reasonable, yet just too much on a teacher's salary. Maybe this is my chance…?

  11. I love all their dining chairs! I would probably go with the Parsons dining chair with the green geometric slipcover. I have a beautiful, round, antique table that my mother-in-law gave me that they would look perfect with.

  12. Hmmm. Hard to choose. We still desperately need a living room rug. But I do love the Kushak console. Excellent giveaway. Violet

  13. i would LURVE the ombre rug, but couldnt find it on their site. looks like one i've seen on cb2 but better quality. and i would love the hayworth mirrored vanity. pick me pick me PICK MEEE!

  14. I have really been wanting to add some window treatments to my living room and I love any of the damask patterned window panels!

  15. I'm in the market for outdoor furniture for our newly refinished deck. I would love to get the rattan chairs, colorful pillows, and an outdoor rug.

  16. Ok this pretend shopping trip was fun! I'd get 2 of those teal lacquered arm chairs, an indoor/outdoor rug, either a mosaic accent table or a garden stool, a set of recycled glass tumblers, several of those resin coasters to sprinkle around, and two suzani coffee mugs….now won't you join me for coffee or iced tea outside on the backyard patio!!

  17. I need new dinnerware in a major way and I love their luminous porcelain dinnerware. Of course I would also get some of their Suzani appetizer plates – gorgeous! And a slew of the standard white serving pieces for that matter.

  18. I have been eyeing the Carmen Sofa in Taupe for a long time. I love the nailhead trim. It is now on sale for $699, so the $500 give away would get me very close.

  19. oh pier 1, i miss you! we registered there for our wedding 14 years ago and now need a refresher (shouldn't we all throw showers for our friends at the 5-10-15 year mark?) anyhow – i am in dire, DIRE!, need of new outdoor furnture. based on these photosvthey may be my go-to place to shop… if i don't win. if i do – then whoo hoo, i'm all in! xo (too much?)
