Simple Steps to Styling Your Sofa

It seems as if adding a few pillows to your sofa should be easy, but many of us find ourselves struggling to pick out the perfect pillows to complete our sofa! Come on over to the site to find out how simple styling your sofa really is which just a few simple tips!This time of year I like to refresh my sofa and give it more of a Fall feel! With simply buying new pillows you can take your sofa to a new fabulous fresh look. As a designer, I like to give my clients a quick fall feel by switching their light summer pillow to more of a winter feel.

I’ve taken a few tips I’m familiar with to get started on this quest for what feels fresh in your home.

First, we all have a color palette to our homes so these tips are to give you an idea of how many new pillows you might need for your sofa whether it’s a contemporary look or traditional.

There are many ways to arrange your pillows…so no need to look any further here are my recommendation. With these easy tips changing your pillows will keep you from getting sick of your sofa!

  1. For a clean less fussy look start from the outside with two solid colors 22” or 24” pillows.
