Sunset Magazine Idea House in Menlo Park

This past weekend, we visited the 2008 Sunset Magazine Idea House in Menlo Park, CA. One of my favorite home and garden magazines!

It was refreshing to see bold color used through out the house.

Pictured here is the outdoor seating area. The benches were decorated with colorful throw pillows made of various fabrics in hues of purple, chocolate and blue. They really caught my eye. I especially like the mix of patterns and fabrics in these pillows. It created a sophisticated and relaxed outdoor lounge area.

What a great idea to re-use your left over fabrics and remnants to make colorful pillows similar to these!
