About Decorative Pillows for a Bed
- Bedroom pillows aren't just pretty but are functional too; stack them on your headboard so you can read in bed. Prop yourself up on them while working on your laptop for a few minutes before bed, or use them to prop up your feet. Of course, these decor pillows will also keep your bedroom looking polished during any period of rest and relaxation.
- Keep it modern with solid-colored pillows or pillows with a modern pattern like geometric shapes, thick stripes or even polka dots. Invest in ruffled, satin or lace pillows for a romantic, elegant look and feel. Use floral print pillows or soft velvet in warm solids for a more traditional look. Regardless of your style, mix it up by incorporating a variety of fabrics, colors and textures into your decor pillow selection.
- Throw your spare pillows in a chest located at the end of your bed or in a corner of your room. Keeping all your decor pillows in a chest keeps them fresh; reserve your pillows, encased in pillowcases, for sleeping. Add your pillows to your bed in the morning so you're greeted by your fully dressed bed at the end of a hard day of work.
- Read the instruction label on your decorative pillows before washing, drying or dry cleaning. If the pillow does not have a label, remember that pillows with heavy embroidery or made of delicate fabric should always be washed by hand or sent to a reputable dry cleaner.
