Buy large square, medium and smaller rectangles/lumbars, circles or you could get real funky and try the trending pyramid. ![]() Vary sizes and shapes: Mix it up with size. This will help give dimension right off the bat.Ģ. If your palette is teal, yellow and rust, feel free to pick a punchy yellow than maybe a pattern with a lighter shade…same goes for all the other colors. Keep a cohesive color palette: This is the first rule for a reason. If you don’t have a cohesive color palette then you are setting yourself up to fail (or at least make the job much harder full of second guesses). We get it, we love color, too, but choose some tones you want on your sofa or bed then buy within those colors. Just make sure to leave room for neutrals and deeper/lighter hues of your palette, meaning it doesn’t all have to be the same exact shade of blue or green. Of course, feel free to go off-book if you’re feeling like a pro, but for those who need a more 101 rulebook, here we go:ġ. These guidelines apply to any time you go to put together a pillow combo (not just the neutral kind like we are focusing on today).

We have actually written about this topic a couple of different times: One with rules and one budget combo post. Lucky number five…that’s a thing right? I promise it won’t take you as long if you put your mind to it….I’m just classically indecisive (not my favorite Libra trait). Now, I took my tiiiiimme with it and played with at least four different combos before I felt it was right. After months of thinking on it/hunting, only THIS WEEKEND did I myself find a pillow combination that I really love for my sofa, so I get it as a simple human. HA! Well, my friends unless you are a pro pillow combo-er either by birth or have lots of practice (Emily qualifies for both), it’s usually not that simple. They all magically work together the first go ’round. Pillow combos are an easy enough concept right? You go out to your favorite pillow retailer, choose a few pretty ones, then bing, bang, boom DONE. Photo by sara tramp for ehd | from: my friend’s kid- and pet-friendly family room reveal
