Nothing pulls a room together quite like beautifully arranged and freshly karate chopped throw pillows. They are a great way to spruce up seasonal décor, bring warmth and balance into the home, and provide attention grabbing pops of color.
This is the time to easily incorporate your own personal aesthetic or seasonal inspirations. Throw pillows give you the ability to constantly change up your space. I love using a variety of pillow covers because it provides the ability to switch up decor constantly, without spending too much.
Let’s remember some basic design rules to maintain balance and visual appeal throughout you home.
Creating Depth
Creating depth is crucial and overusing a single pattern, color, size, or print should be avoided. You can pull color out of existing décor or switch up the seasonal aesthetic by using different textures. Think faux fur in the winter and linen in the summer. If you’re a fan of floral prints, combine them with neutral or simple counterparts, and avoid too many complex patterns in one area as they can overwhelm the space.

Pro tip: when buying down pillow inserts, always go up in size. If your pillow covers are a 20×20, purchase a 22×22 pillow insert. This will help keep your pillows full and not feeling flimsy.

Throw Pillows and Playing with Colors
If you’re a beginner, keep it simple and stick with picking a color you’d like to accentuate. If you find a smaller pillow cover with a complex design with your color choice, match it with a neutral textured pillow, and a larger simple patterned pillow. Don’t overdo one type of pattern, fabric, or color. I’ve found that taking a few photos of various pillow covers and displaying them side by side helps a lot!
