Throw pillows<\/a> are a great way to accent any seating solution! They can bring a new flair to any room. Pillows can complete a look, change a room you\u2019re getting bored of and even add your personal flair to quickly add your own twist to a basic concept. Home design is so personal, when choosing throw pillows there is a science to styling! Placement, size, color, texture, and patterns all matter when choosing the right ones for your home.<\/p>\n

It is so much fun to pick these affordable and easy upgrades to jazz up your room. You have to keep in mind these few things when picking your throw pillows:<\/p>\n

1. Size<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To determine your pillow size you must keep in mind the size of the furniture that it will be going on. 24\u201d x 24\u201d & 20\u201d x 20\u201d as well as bolsters are the most ideal choice for Sofas and Loveseats.<\/p>\n

2. Fabric<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We always recommend keeping in mind if your sofa or chair has a pattern. If this is the case, we suggest looking at solid colored covers. If solid is too boring for you, go with a solid textured fabric. The same thing goes for the opposite! If you have a solid sofa or chair you should go pattern crazy! If you really want to jazz it up, add a patterned textured fabric, fur, or even leather!<\/p>\n

3. Placement<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now we must touch on placement\u2026 You should always start with two\u2026 Not enough? Go for 4\u2026 Still bored? Go crazy mix and match with 7 at all different shapes sizes colors and patterns! The possibilities are endless. Above you will see arrangement styles and placement.<\/p>\n

4. Mix & Match<\/h2>\n

Lastly, we are suggesting mixing and matching colors, patterns, and textures for the daring chic home styler! You should start with 2 large solid colored pillows. Layer on top two 20\u201d x 20\u201d throws. Those you can get funky! Select a pattern, texture, sequined, or even a furry style here. If you want to do another layer\u2026 great! Go with 17\u201d x 17\u201d, this one I would go with a heavy texture solid color (perhaps a corduroy, microsuede or even a burlap\/denim.) If you\u2019re still not quite satisfied, top it all off with a neck roll or bolster! This should have piping and be embroidered.<\/p>\n

And voila! You have a perfectly styled sofa. Give us a call<\/a>\u00a0and we can help you pick all of this for you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
