A great way for a quick change is custom pillows. They can bring a look of fun, or sophistication to any space. Here are a few tips when it comes to designing and picking pillows for your sofa. Design a pair of pillows that are either 20 or 22 inches square to place on the far right and left of the sofa, these are your "anchor" pillows. You then want to work your way into the middle of the sofa. You can add smaller square pillows or you could add a lumbar pillow. Of course this is just one example the possibilities for pillows are endless. The most important thing to remember is you want to create visual interest with different heights of pillows and different styles. Mix and match your fabrics, sofa upholstery and pillow fabrics should never be the same. If you have a solid fabric on your sofa use a print on your pillows. We recommend and use down inserts rather than polyester. They are more comfortable and better looking. They do require a good fluffing every now and then. Trim or contrast welting is often over looked when it comes to designing pillows. Trim is a great way to pull more colors into the space or compliment the colors you have. Maybe you have a navy blue sofa and the other accents in your room are red and gold. Find a trim for the sofa pillows that pulls that red and gold. Nothing makes a space pop like paying attention to the little details Your decorative choices should be fun and show your personality. Throw something quirky or unpredictable into the mix, it will reflect you and be a great conversation piece.
