To Chop or Not to Chop, that is the question?

Help me out, y’all!
I recently read one of my favorite designer’s feature in the current Southern Living magazine entitled, “How do I arrange the pillows on my sofa?” I was a little shocked when Phoebe Howard wrote that she does not suggest chopping the pillows. Wow! I have done the karate chop for years. Is it passé? Am I out of style?
Then I saw a recent blogger’s friend blog, Savvy Southern Style, and Kim posed the same question.
Here are pictures of my newest den sofa pillows with the “chop” and without the “chop”:
To chop....

Or not to chop....

I really like my four newest coastal-inspired pillows by D.V. Kap Home purchased at Chic Chateau.

I still prefer the chop on my pillows, but what do you think? Comment below and let me know your thoughts.
Chop, chop y’all!
I am blogging now because I’ll be advising my Science Olympiad team at Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond to compete in the State competition tomorrow. It will be a long day. Wish us luck. Geaux team!

  1. To chop, definitely! In my opinion, it brings more elegance and class to a room... Keep doing what you do DS! Love you! :)

  2. Heeey Ron! I've done some research for you today (reading the new Veranda at the dock)... and I think just a slight chop. I'm not ready to do away with the chop totally, but I think it should just be very slight... like the down pillow has just fallen in place like that.
