Pillow Reviews | The Bedding Guide

Pillows are the cherry on the top of a sundae. The complete the room in such a way that it can leave you feeling complete. Pillows also have the power to take a room from country to modern.

After you have your room displayed how you want it you are going to want to decide 3 major attributes of pillows: shape, texture, and size.

Much of the biggest trends are saying that rectangle and circle are very much in style these days.

They are actually some of my favorite shapes for pillows. Play with a couple different shape pillows in the store by putting them together in a group.

Don’t be scared to really get crazy with the shapes. You would be surprised what looks awesome together on your bedding.

Texture/Patterns: This could also be classified in the type of fabric and the design of the fabric you are going with. You are going to want a couple of a solid color pillow then add a couple different pillows with different designs and then a pillow with a special texture, like a 3D flower look or a faux fur. This is huge when making that POP in your room.

There is a ton you can do with texture and design of the pillows, so don’t be afraid to really get creative!

There are a couple rules when it comes to mixing patterns that you should be aware of if you are going to use more than one pattern.

Work with an odd number of patterns. Start off with 3 patterns, they really don’t have to have anything in common design wise, but start with 3 first and when you’ve mastered those then you can move up to 5 different patterns.

I love this pattern from Amazon, it’s the JinStyles Cotton Canvas Quatrefoil Accent Decorative Throw Pillow Cover. It is a beautiful design and a great size to cover the pillows you already have at home.

Size: I like to say the bigger the better with pillows. The solid colored pillows you are going to want in a bigger size because those will be the pillows that make the back drop of your display.

After you’ve got a couple of the bigger pillows set you can then move to a medium sized pillows as you accent pillows.
