Whether you are looking to create a new and inspiring look for your bedroom, or simply spice up your home for the season, accent pillows may be the answer for you! Accent pillows are one of the most popular decorative products in the market today. They may be used to put the finishing touch on a newly acquired ensemble, or embellish your favorite in- home designs with color and texture.

Accent pillows are ideal for the enhancement of your typical home furnishings, such as couches, chairs and beds. However, with the multitude of variety available today, many home decorators have been inspired to use accent pillows to brighten darkened hallways, cozy up the guest bath and help focus in the office.

The first step to making the most of accent pillows is to choose a room. Asking these questions will help you define what exactly it is you are looking to accomplish: How do you want the space to change? What is your present color scheme? How will you use texture to define a “feel”? Ideally, you can answer all of these questions by choosing pillows that have the color, pattern and texture that combine all of these elements. For example, Silence, by Lawrence, offers a beautifully subtle breakfast pillow that mixes neutral, earthy tones with a soft combed cotton touch that compliments the delicately drawn bamboo. This design breathes and is calming to the eye - the perfect addition to your home office. On the opposing side would be the square and boudoir pillows offered in Thomasville’s Cherrington collection. These two pillows, with their bright navy, whites, and mustard yellows enliven the senses with a feeling of cool and clean. The bold paisley pattern of the boudoir pillow alongside the chunky stripes of the square pillow will uplift any indoor patio furniture. Aj moss’s own Victorian Toile line offers the infamous pattern of country toile and coordinate Logan check pattern throw pillows. What a great way to add a little comfort to your kitchen’s breakfast nook! The traditional look of toile, reminiscent of early Americana, helps you brighten your morning with a gentle reminder of the beauty of hard work and play in simpler times.

The next step is locating your accent pillows. Where do you begin? With so many choices out there, knowing where to start is half the battle.
Recently, I was speaking with my Aunt Nancy. She started telling me about how she is looking for some blue accent pillows for her den, but just can’t seem to find any! Her favorite retail locations seem only to carry a limited collection of pillows, most of which are one of a kind and / or discontinued patterns, and none of them came anywhere close to matching the color that she needs. Of course I suggested going on line, but she replied that most web sites are too confusing. Ultimately, we opted to send her fabric samples from some of aj MOSS’s most popular bedding ensemble selections, such as Croscill’s Ocean View and Thomasville’s Juliette. Having the ability to see and feel the fabrics in person is very relieving to the on line shopper. You can be assured that the product you are purchasing is exactly what you expect! The web is today’s best bet when looking for decorative ideas and products.

In conclusion, accent pillows have the ability to not only enhance your niche, they can elevate your mood and magnify your own unique individuality! Accent pillows are a wonderful way to bring your home back to you.
