Even a grand room with exquisite furniture, stylish rugs, and gorgeous lighting can seem unfinished without one more element. In many instances, the solution is just a bit of color.
Blue is particularly versatile, soothing and pleasant, or intense (depending on the color and material). Proper pillows can revitalize your sofa without an extensive renovation of your room.
Use The Correct Colour Of Blue In The First Place
Not all blue is alike. Pale sky blue and powder blue are airy looks that are great for beach, cottage, and casual bedroom styles. Navy and indigo provide a neutral contrast to neutral furniture, and neutral denim and slate blue fit into modern, minimalist rooms.
When selecting blue pillow covers, take a look at the hues that are currently in your room. Dusty blue complements warm beige, cream, and tan. For a fresher look, use a combination of white and light gray; for a more dramatic look, use a combination of walnut furniture and brass accents.
Create Patterns That Fit Into Your Current Decor
A combination of patterns can create an interesting, well-coordinated sofa that isn't too coordinated. A large floral print paired with a smaller geometric print and one solid colored cushion. Use a common color of the patterns to tie them together visually.
To get a handcrafted feel, block print pillow covers add in traditional designs and subtle variations that add character to the room. They complement woven throws, natural wood, and plain upholstery particularly.
For those who appreciate laid-back, multi-layered design, blue boho throw pillow covers can tie the room together with a blend of faded patterns, textured fabrics, and natural touches. Don't keep too many prints in one small space; a couple of quieter prints will give the space a bit of breathing room.

Shop NowSelect The Appropriate Fabric For Your Lifestyle
Fabric is a major determinant of the appearance, feel, and use of a pillow.
-
Cotton is a practical and versatile material that can be used for frequently used areas.
-
Linen: Provides a casual feel and natural appearance. Neutral sofas and wood furniture complement the blue linen pillow covers.
-
Printed cotton: Pattern and color without a too-stuffy feeling.
When evaluating blue decorative pillows, look for the material, stitching, closure, and maintenance. For a neat look and easier cover removal, consider blue pillow covers that feature zipper closure buttons.
Make Sure The Size And Sofa Arrangement Is Correct
Take measurements of pillow inserts before ordering pillow covers. Pillow covers for 18x18 cushions are a popular choice for standard pillows, and when the 20x20 pillow covers are paired with the right-sized inserts, they can give a complete look to larger sofas.
If you're looking for a balance, position the bigger cushions near the arms of the sofa and the smaller cushions in the middle. Cream, ivory, or patterned pillows can be used to complement the blue throw pillows to keep the seating area interesting without overwhelming the display.
Select blue cushion covers that match your upholstery, but not to the exact degree. A sofa pillow that features blue cushions can also incorporate colors from nearby artwork, rugs, curtains, and any other colors that can help accentuate a coordinated living room.

Having Fresh Pillows Is Essential For A Good Night's Rest.
Read the care label before washing, as dyes can be treated differently to fabric blends. When possible, take the cover off of inserts, clean up spills immediately, and use harsh cleaners only when recommended. Sometimes turn cushions over to distribute wear and to prevent prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade some fabrics.
Refresh Your Room With a New Point of View
Don't underestimate the power of blue as an accent color, as it can dramatically alter the look and feel of a room. Use a color that matches the color of your furniture, mix in some interesting textures and prints, and choose sizes to suit both the look and feel. A couple of strategically placed pillows can transform your comfortable home into a fresh one.
