Pillows and Throws

If you’re craving a new look for your living room or bedroom (but your budget and schedule say otherwise), a simple and fairly inexpensive way to spice up your decor is to add decorative pillows, throw blankets or floor poufs. With the wide array of shapes, colors, materials, sizes and patterns these cozy accents come in, they are an ideal way to inject pops of personality and energy into your home.

Throw pillows can be stacked uniformly on your sofa or tossed about like you just don’t care (but you really do, we know). A good way to start out your accent pillow collection is by selecting sizes and shapes that work well together. This allows you to switch up designs and colors with throw pillow covers. Don’t feel limited to your sofa or couch, either. Decorative pillows can accent your bed, too.

Once your pillows are in place, find a decorative throw to drape over the back or arm of your sofa or at the end of your bed. These cozy additions can add a huge dose of texture to any room. You can find them in cable knit, cashmere and faux fur — and when you’re ready to relax they’re perfect for snuggling up in.

If you need additional seats or to fill an empty space, try adding a pouf to your seating arrangement. Large or small, these are simple yet comfortable seating options. For a traditional, global vibe, go for a Moroccan pouf. If simple solid colors will work better for your space, a cozy knit floor pillow can be subtle color-wise, but in terms of texture it still makes a statement.
