Throw These Throw Pillows

  Once you have all of the furniture in your room, it’s time for decorations. Decor adds life, personality, comfort to a room- and it can easily be changed out to suit the seasons, or your mood. Throw pillows in particular are easy, inexpensive ways to change the feel of the room, boom, instant makeover!

I stray towards the kitsch and love to have a couple pillows that I change out for the big holidays (Christmas, Easter, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Halloween, St Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s- okay, most of the holidays) so I have classical beautiful pillows that I switch out seasonally and use as a base and a couple of fun holiday specific pillows that I layer around the specific holiday (my husband makes me keep it to the holiday month- he is less cheesy than I am). My mother, on the other hand, has beautiful, classic pillows that perfectly match her furniture, and she only changes these out when she is doing a complete overhaul of her decor, once to twice a decade (although she does have Christmas pillows and her holiday decorating puts mine to shame- whether the trait is inherited or learned, I definitely got it from my mom). My sister, my other design collaborator, uses neutral, elegant base pillows and then has a few elegant pillows that she will switch out seasonally (earth tones for fall and winter, pastel for spring, and bright colors for summer). The point is, change out your pillows as frequently or as infrequently as you want, pick whatever style you want, but here are some tips for helping you get started in your throw pillow search (there are literally thousands to choose from):

Size and Shape

Sofas: largest pillows should be on the outside, smallest on the inside

Chaise and beds: largest pillows should be at the head moving to the smallest on top

For a plumper looking pillow, pick an insert that is a size larger than the case

Mix and match sizes and shapes: four square pillows and a rectangular pillow in the middle on a sofa, a circular pillow layered over a square pillow, a star pillow on a chair

For a more textured shape, “chop” pillows so that they bend in at the top

“Chopped” pillow

Color

Feel free to vary the colors of your throw pillows but stick to a color palette

Try getting a couple of sets of complementary pillows, if you have seven pillows in your seating area you could have three sets of pairs and one accent pillow, all following the same color scheme

Tie the color scheme with the rest of the room. Choose a primary or secondary color in your rug, sofa, accent chair, duvet, wall color or the other decor

When layering different pillows, have the busiest pattern on top or as the largest pillow- making it the key pillow, mix with a simpler pattern (like strips) and a solid

Material

Feather and down are softer and squishier, but they are also pricier and don’t hold their shape as well

Cotton, foam, and synthetic fills don’t look as cloudlike, but they hold their shape better

For added interest, pick a different casing material, texture from the sofa or bed

Feel free to mix and match textures

Keep in mind the function of the pillow. Some materials are harder to clean: silk, fur… Some textures are less comfortable: sequins, buttons…

Number of Pillows

The goal is style and comfort. On couches, don’t have so many there is no room to sit. On beds, don’t make unloading the pillows a ten minute process

For a classical look, stick with symmetry

For a more contemporary look, try an asymmetical approach
