Arranging Designer Cushions to Decorate Beds: 6 Ideas for Novices August 29, 2022
Designer cushions are not just meant for sofas and couches but also beds. People seem to have taken it more seriously. Many of them litter the bed with too many of them. Now, there is no doubt that tassel cushions and designer cushions can improve the very aesthetics of one’s bedroom. And these are not just limited to enriching the look but also the feel by softening the space. However, too many on a bed can be a bit messy and add to the chores as you would have to take them off every night and place them back in the morning. So, the key to arranging lies in quality and not quantity. Let us share some tips on how to arrange them for maximum impact.
Hints on How to Get the Cushion Arrangement Right Pick some cues on how to decorate your bed with designer or tassel cushions:
1. Keep it minimalistic By minimal, we imply maintaining symmetry for maximum impact and keeping the number of cushions under control. Two, three or four are enough. As for colour, create a contrast with the bedding. The size could vary. For instance, you can arrange two large and two small together.
2. Splash colour into the room The greatest advantage of bed cushions is that they add colour to the room. Now imagine you have your bed covered with classic white linen. You could make it look less washed out and uninteresting by splashing vibrant colour combinations through cushions. The key to keeping the entire room themed and in harmony is picking out accent colours from walls or soft furnishings and using them to draw inspiration while choosing cushion colours. However, if you are up for a bold statement, keep the base colour of the designer cushions alike but their tones and hues different. No matter how you approach the plan, always maintain a cohesive colour scheme that ties the room together.
3. Pick bold patterns You could mix up all block colours and add a pattern. It could be geometric, floral, or oriental. However, avoid having all your cushions in bold patterns as one could overpower another and turn out to be overwhelming. As for hues, pick from a colour palette existing in the room. Arrange all the cushions in a way whereby the patterned ones lead the block colour prints. The latter group of cushions here, act mostly as the backdrop.
4. Maintain a single colour palette Different colours and patterns on a set of cushions might overcrowd the aesthetics. You could prevent it by choosing a single colour palette with dissimilar tones and hues. Monochrome is what we are indicating. For instance, you could pick blue, green or yellow and their varying tones. Believe it or not, this would add depth to your bed without compromising elegance.
5. Take time to select the right fabric Had it been only about looks, it would have been a different matter altogether. The warmth, texture and comfort, or in simple words, the ‘feel’ a set of cushions evoke, is significant, especially during the daytime. Anybody could just lie down for some time and take a power nap. Therefore, fabric choice matters. A touch of opulence comes with organic cotton, velvet, or linen. Get a fabric that feels good against your skin!
6. Place the cushions nicely As discussed earlier, keeping the cushion count down to 4 or less is ideal for beds. Now, suppose you have got odd numbers like 3. Form a triangle with one cushion leading the rest of the two to catch the attention. However, if you are more into symmetry, arrange all 4 cushions with 2 on each side of the central divide. The main sleeping pillow could be kept in the centre. Postscript:
