HOW TO STYLE YOUR SOFA PILLOWS + AFFORDABLE PILLOW COMBINATIONS

 

Happy Friday! - Is that even what day it is? I honestly don’t know anymore. I do know that my weekend ahead will include a lot of time spend on the sofa ( p.s. yours should too #stayhome). Lucky for you, today we are discussing how to style your sofa pillows + affordable pillow combinations. 

By paying attention to these three aspects of design you can successfully style any throw pillow combination. 

SIZE/SHAPE:

When looking for different size of pillows, use the chart below as a cheat sheet for what sizes work well together! My rule of thumb is to mix multiple sizes and shapes together. Don’t be afraid to look for more interesting shape pillows (spheres, lumbar, circular, or bolster).

PATTERN:

We’re not only talking about scale of the pillow sizes, but also scale of the patterns on the pillow. The real interesting moment happens when you can successfully mix large, medium, and small scale patterns together. I definitely thing mixing patterns can work in many situations. Just make sure the scale of the patterns are not too similar (i.e. large scale floral pillow with small scale embroidered pillow). 

TEXTURE: 

Texture can also be another “pattern” to work with when selecting and combining throw pillows. Think of adding texture in pillows with tassels, trims, or applied pom-poms. 

COLOR PALLETTE:

Do you lean more eclectic, minimal, farmhouse, minimal, or chic? You know that you have a style. So, don’t be afraid to express your style when it comes to these pillow pairings.
