Cushions in your Living Room

Let’s start with the heart of your home - the living room, which is the most used area where we either entertain or relax with family or friends, either just sitting and reading or snacking or just spend time on our own.

Make sure to choose colours in sync with your furnishing, your wall hues and also the overall colour tone. It is also refreshing to change your cushion covers as per the seasons . For example - soothing shades like whites and pastels with prints in either geometrics or florals work wonderfully for the warm weather.

Heavier cushion covers with darker hues and embroidery can make a room feel cozy during winters. It's also a good idea not to overdo a sofa with too many cushions. Leave enough space to comfortably sit and lounge. But on a diwan or on a bed, you can have some extra cushions for a cozy feel.

Cushions On an Accent Stand-Alone Chair 

Since recent times, accent chairs are the perfect solution for extra seating in a living room . This versatile piece of furniture can be a statement piece that can elevate the overall aesthetics of your space. You can use a single cushion with a statement cushion cover, different from the other cushion covers on your sofa. 

You can try and bring in a quirky difference to your living space with varied colors and prints to draw attention to your accent chair.

Accent chairs for living room spaces are different from accent chairs that can be used in your bedroom. Bedroom accent chairs are for organizing clothes or for relaxing with a book with your feet up on an ottoman.  Accent chairs for a living room need to be more comfortable and easy-to-clean.

Cushions In Your Bedroom 

Cushions are mainly used to give a feeling of warmth and relaxation in bedrooms. The known tip is to match the cushion covers to the bed linen, furnishings and to the wall hues.

Choose soothing colors, floral prints or geometric prints. You can have as many cushions as you like for the bedroom, apart from the pillows you use to sleep on. 

Lumbar cushions are also a good choice for back support and comfort. Use cushion covers in soft cotton for these, as you will mostly use them while sitting up on your bed. 

Cushions in your Reading Nook / Study Room or Entertainment Room

We all have our own space where we love to lounge and read our favourite books. Or watch a movie or browse through our phones. You can make your space look extra cozy with throw cushions covered with quirky cushion covers. Consider prints and colors that can add to the ambience of the room.

Redo a vintage chair or a diwan, for your reading nook with pretty patterns and prints. Match the single cushion covers to the overall feel of the room.

Cushions in your Balcony or Sit-Out

A peaceful place to sit and relax is what we all want. Waking up to beautiful blooms and fresh, lush greenery is a great way to kick-start your day. Compliment nature with luxurious cushions on your garden chairs and sip your morning tea or coffee in comfort and style.

Choose hues and prints for your cushions in pleasant shades and to complement your balcony or sit-out. If you have a lot of greenery, pick bright color covers for your cushions. These days cushions come in many shapes and sizes. 

Floor cushions are another excellent choice to make your area look exotic and welcoming.

To build a cozy seating in your balcony,  you can place floor cushions in a corner or next to some ornamental plants to design a comfortable space for lounging.

These days, cushions come in many sizes and shapes, not just in a standard square shape. Commonly used cushions that are in use are with dimensions of L18 x W18 or L20 x W20. They come with foam, fibre or cotton filling. Choose what suits you best.

A mixture of sizes, color's and patterns will ensure your lovely cushions don't look out of place but rather a cohesive mix of choices with at least one element which can be either colour, fabric or pattern, in common. The smaller cushions can be styled and placed in front of the bigger cushions, so they can be the most elaborate.

In conclusion, cushions are gorgeous decor items that every home has. Styling homes with cushions is a versatile and affordable way to add a touch of personality and comfort to your living space. So, just go confident by experimenting with the styling and with colours, patterns and arrangements. You can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere that reflects your unique style and enhances the overall aesthetics of your home. Go ahead and have fun with cushions to transform your space into a warm and inviting haven.
