Throw Pillows in Decorative Pillows & Throws(1000+)

The number of throw pillows on a couch often depends on the size of the couch and your personal style. A common approach is:

• For a standard three-seat couch, 3 to 5 pillows usually work well.
• Mix different sizes and shapes, such as square and lumbar pillows, to add visual interest.
• Balance comfort and aesthetics by not overcrowding the seating area.

Choosing the right number can enhance your living room's look while providing cozy support.

Choosing the right size throw pillows can really tie your sofa's look together. Here are some tips:

• For most sofas, pillows sized between 18" x 18" and 20" x 20" are popular because they offer a good balance of comfort and style.
• Smaller pillows (like 12" x 12") work well as accents or paired with larger pillows.
• Consider lumbar pillows (rectangular shapes) for back support and variety.
• Mixing sizes can create a layered, inviting look.

Picking sizes that complement your sofa's dimensions helps maintain both comfort and visual appeal.

Keeping your decorative throw pillows fresh and clean helps maintain their look and longevity. Here's how:

• Check the care label for specific instructions, as materials vary.
• Many pillow covers are removable and machine washable‚Äîuse gentle cycles and mild detergent.
• Spot clean stains promptly with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Fluff pillows regularly to keep their shape and softness.
• For non-washable pillows, consider professional cleaning or airing them out in sunlight to reduce odors.

Proper care can keep your pillows looking great and feeling comfortable for years.

Choosing colors and patterns for throw pillows depends on your room's style and mood you want to create. Consider these ideas:

• Neutral colors like beige, gray, or white blend easily with most decor and add subtle texture.
• Bold colors or multicolor patterns can add a pop of personality and brighten a space.
• Patterns such as geometric, floral, or houndstooth add visual interest and can complement solid furniture.
• Mixing solids with patterned pillows creates a balanced, layered look.

Think about your existing decor and choose pillow colors and patterns that enhance your space's vibe.

Throw pillows can last a long time, but refreshing them occasionally keeps your space feeling updated and comfortable. Here are some signs it might be time to replace or refresh:

• Pillows lose their shape or become flat despite fluffing.
• Fabric shows wear, fading, or stains that don't come out with cleaning.
• Your style or room color scheme has changed and you want a new look.
• Allergy concerns might prompt replacing pillows with hypoallergenic options.

Refreshing pillow covers or inserts can be an easy way to update without buying new pillows entirely.
