Throw Pillows: Accessorize Your Pad

September 24, 2006

A fashionista can never have too many accessories, so why not apply that same philosophy to your home? Just as an eye-catching necklace or handbag can transform an outfit, one unique throw pillow can completely liven up an otherwise basic couch, bed, or armchair. And don't be afraid to mix and match unexpected graphics and patterns. Here are some of my favorite playful throw pillows.

Urban Outfitters Flocked Wallpaper Piped Pillow, $20, available here.

Crate & Barrel Adora Pillow, $26.95, available here.

State Hand-Embroidered Pillow, $136, available in 50 state designs here.

Four more, so read more

Room & Board Chocolate Rhumba Pillow, $99, available here.

English Garden Hollyhock Pillow, $88, available here.

CB2 Spencer Multi Stripe Pillow, $29.95, here.

Delia's Zen Pillow, $38, available here.

i like the one with the graffiti. but why pay so much for cushion covers that can be scarred forever at the slightest stain? ____________________________________ Don't tick me off. Or you'll get it.

I love the Crate & Barrel and the CB2. Until my landlord lets me paint my living room orange, I have to get my fix by using as many orange accessories as possible. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* (formerly known as nam4anad)

No matter how cute a throw pillow is, I never buy it unless its really soft to the touch. My husband always complains about it like, "Honey, what's the point is you can only look at it!"
