How to Decorate with a Duvet
- 1). Buy a duvet and choose a duvet cover that matches your bedroom decor to create a cohesive look. For instance, if you have a country-inspired design theme, choose a rustic-looking plaid duvet cover. For an elegant space featuring a chandelier, buy a silk or satin duvet cover. A pink floral patterned cover will add a charming touch to a vintage-themed bedroom.
- 2). Pick a dust ruffle to coordinate with the new duvet. If you have a patterned duvet cover, choose a solid color ruffle to avoid a busy look. Add interest to a plain cover by buying a dust ruffle featuring a pattern, such as flowers or stripes.
- 3). Enhance the duvet with plush, decorative pillows. Liven up a neutral white or tan duvet cover with pillows featuring vibrant colors, such as coral and sunny yellow. For a garden-inspired space with a floral-patterned cover, choose delicate petal-shaped pillows.
- 4). Add warmth to the duvet by decorating with a throw blanket. Choose a blanket to match the decorative pillows and the overall look of the space. If you have a cheetah-printed duvet cover, buy a brown chenille blanket to tone down the look; fold the blanket neatly at the bottom of the bed.
- 5). Decorate with items that enhance the duvet cover style. If your cover features a floral or botanical print, place a vase of fresh-cut flowers or a terra cot pot filled with a green plant on your night stand. Complement a rustic-looking duvet cover by hanging wrought iron sconces above the bed.
