To give you some insight on how to place and “fluff” your pillow, here are some examples:

Using two pillows of the same size with complementing patterns adds interest to a neutral couch & background. This also invites a hint of color into the room through this accessory. You can see these pillows have a little bit of a “karate chop” but in general, our team prefers the “throw” look of the “throw pillow” as you’ll see in the rest of the images. That is simply a personal preference, rather than a design rule.

In this bedroom, the pillows are all kept very neutral so the star of the show (the 10′ headboard) gets the attention. The euro pillows (big squares) on the bed are the same color as the bedding, and the pillows on the sofa and chairs are all in the same color family as the furniture they are sitting on.

In this colorful living room, there are various sizes of pillows combined to complement each other. This includes two 20″ square pillows on the outside, two 18″ square pillows next to them, and then an 18″ x 24″ rectangular pillow to fill in. Sometimes you can’t help but to fill up the couch with pillows when you love ALL the patterns!

Comfort is key when it comes to pillows on a sofa, in our opinion. After all, nap time is best on the couch, right!? So make sure when you’re selecting pillows, that they are something you’d like to lay your cheek on.

It is a bonus if the they can all be mixed up between your sofa and chairs, because you’ll never worry about your pillows being out of place.
