7. You’re using too many pillows!

We all love using throw pillows as part of our decorative accents, especially when we make our beds, but using too many can be annoying! If you put them in your bedroom and you need the bed only when you sleep, it is not that big a deal, but if you put them on everything, such as on the couch and chairs, it would get extremely annoying to move them every time you get up.

Keep in mind that these pillows look good when they are displayed in a store, but it doesn’t mean that you should have tons of them on every seat in your house!

…Don’t put teeny-tiny pillows on a big chair or a sofa, because it’s going to look odd and weird.

    I have never heard of scones lighting before. I am assuming you mean sconses. Found most everything interesting though.

    What a good variety of ideas.
    I hadn’t really realized I had a themed living room. I thought SW, but it’s more AmerIndian. Plans to change it out slightly.
    The first 3 ideas are the ones I’ll be implementing first. I never think I have enough pillows. They and my artwork are the “color” in the living room. But, I’ve noticed my guests always moving them off of the furniture.
    You hit on the things that I’ve been taking for granted/not noticing.
    Thank you.
