Throw pillows: the easy way to integrate seasonal decor

When the seasons change, you probably change the clothes you wear and the food you eat. Why should your living room be any different? If you’re not the type to have multiple boxes of decorations but you still want your space to feel seasonal, try swapping out your throw pillows.

Spring and summer
With the bright sun and warm days, these seasons call for bright colors and light textures. Go for botanical or gingham prints, and don’t be afraid to mix patterns. For an extra warm-weather vibe, go for breezy linen and cotton fabrics.

Fall and winter
When the weather cools down, you might want your living room to have a cozier feel. Throw pillows in darker, moodier tones made of rich fabrics like velvet are perfect for this time of year. For an après-ski feel, choose knitted wool pillows.

No matter the time of year, be sure to choose pillows in a variety of shapes, colors and textures for visual interest, but keep your seasonal theme in mind to maintain a cohesive look.
