Decorate Like A Pro With Throw Pillows

 

Imagine the stories that throw pillows could say if they could talk! Why did they allow the big guy to drool on me as he slept?" "I was born blue velvet, but they matched me with a family of fringed orange stripes," or "Forever an outcast: I was born blue velvet, but they paired me with a family of fringed orange stripes." Finally, "Why do they karate chop my head every time I get my indent smoothed out?" So, in the unlikely event of a paranormal pillow outbreak, we encourage you to consider all of the ways throw pillows add to the success of our spaces. Throw pillows are an essential part of home design, from achieving a sense of balance to making cosy nooks for napping.

We've gathered some examples of smart and stylish ways to integrate throw pillows into your home design for your design education, entertainment, and pillow-pleasing pleasure.

How To Decorate With Throw Pillows For Your Couch 

Colors & Patterns

If you're thinking like a pro, you'll know that choosing the right patterns and colours can mean the difference between looking fabulous and looking tragic. A few pointers:

·    Choose prints with neutral tones, especially if the prints are bold.

·    When mixing patterns, make sure there's at least one colour in particular.

Theme & Style

Faux fur pillows in bright colours don't fit in every room, but they do in this one. Consider the following when deciding how to integrate unique pillows into your space:

·    In classic rooms, silk, velvet, and ornately painted pillows can be used.

·    A clean, limited palette with broad geometric prints or no prints at all is ideal for modern aesthetics.

·    Choosing a traditional colour theme will help you hit your design stride while decorating for an eclectic look.

Mix & Match

Get your pillow-swinging, colour-picking, pattern-mixing bad selves going now! Nothing beats a chic combination of throw pillow patterns for making a space pop. But keep in mind:

·    To make each pillow stand out on its own, vary the size of your designs.

·    Place two large statement pillows at either end of the long sofa, then pair them with a smaller patterned pillow in the centre.

Keep It Simple

Keep your colour scheme easy. If you need to decorate with throw pillows, this is one rule that you can't go wrong with. With that in mind, make an effort to:

·    Allow your bright accents to stand out by pairing them with a clean, neutral base.

·    To achieve harmony in your bedroom, use the symmetry of your throw pillows.

Pulling The Room Together

Patterns can bring a room together, but they can also separate it. To keep your room looking stylish, do the following:

·    Find pillows that complement rather than imitate – this room's patterned pillow and rug are excellent examples of this concept.

·    Make a statement by using one strong pillow, one patterned pillow, and so on.

Choosing Throw Pillows with Bold Solids

Take your pillow fabrics down a notch if your room already has a lot of designs, such as a patterned couch, dramatic curtains, or a colourful rug. Alternatively, if you love colour but don't want to use it on big pieces (like your couch or club chairs), use solid pillows in bright colours. Visit pillowpops for more
