One of the simplest ways to add flair to your home is to accessorize it with decorative cushion covers.

You can mix and match cushion covers of different patterns and colors to create a unique and personalized look for your living space
This is your space, so let it represent your personality. Don't be afraid to explore and be a little trendy with your choices! It's crucial to learn the right techniques for styling and layering cushions. Here is a quick mini-guide on how to level up your cushion game with these cushion cover ideas.
-
Cushion Styling Tip #1 – Choosing a color scheme
Pick a color scheme that goes well with the décor of the rest of your space. Take a hint from the existing furniture in the space. Try using the same hues from a sofa, a wall painting, accessories, or a rug. If you want to experiment with color in the cushions but that color doesn't appear any place else in the room, you could try using that element as an accent.
-
Cushion Styling Tip #2 – Expertly combining cushion cover patterns
There are mainly two types of patterns for cushion covers: organic and geometric. Checks, stripes, and contemporary shapes are examples of geometric patterns, whereas floral, botanical, and abstract motions are some of the examples of organic patterns. It's a nice creative idea to mix and match patterned cushion covers, but how can you be certain they won't clash? Consider combining, for instance, a floral styled cushion cover with a little geometric patterned or embroidered cushion cover. You could also try to combine a structured striped cushion cover with an allover motif. Use printed patterns that go with the interior of your room.
-
Cushion Styling Tip #3 – Varying Textures
Utilize a variety of textures to give a visual and tactile interest to cushion cover setting. It would be really monotonous to use the same flat fabric all throughout if you had a generally neutral color scheme. Play with the contrast between soft and fuzzy, rough and silky. You can portray a specific decorating style by using a variety of textures.

Cushion Styling Tip #4 – Mixing up cushion covers in different scales
By combining cushion covers in various scales—large, medium, and small—you can diversify your living space. Experiment with different cushion cover sizes and shapes. For example, you could try to combine a square cushion with a deco or a ball cushion.
The ease with which cushion covers may be updated is fantastic. Try to alter your cushion covers according to the season, the wall color, or if you just want to break the monotony. Purchase a cushion filler and cushion covers to make switching out cushions simple.
In the end, all that matters is that you enjoy what you see. If you follow our cushion cover ideas, you'll get stylish results, but don't be afraid to experiment until you find the combination that works for you.
