Fall Frills

Textured Throw Pillows are Statement Pieces for the Season

We were greeted with Southern hospitality and stylish home decor when we arrived at David and Sierra Westrick's home. David and Sierra have curated their home to welcome guests and to reflect their unique style. 

Amongst the crisp autumn air, Sierra's eye for detail in handpicking the perfect outdoor textural throws made us want to relax on her front porch with a glass of sweet tea. Fit for her personality and sense of style, she layered small rectangular pillows against more oversized square pillows. In addition, she provided an accent lumbar pillow on her swing as a statement piece. Adorned on every cushion were pumpkin illustrations in a soft color pallet that made us feel as if we were searching for the perfect pumpkin in the patch. 

Upon entrance, outdoor throw pillows visually catch the eye and add pops of color, depths of texture and lush layers to a patio. Consider adding shades of burnt orange, brick red, olive green and vivid yellow. If those hues do not suit your home decor, try jewel tones such as deep violets, emerald greens and rich blues. So often, we think, "The more, the merrier" when it comes to seasonal decorating. However, swapping out cushions to match the season can be a subtle and effortless way to transition. Decorating with outdoor cushions is a wallet-friendly and effortless way to spruce up your space. Guests will feel welcomed while sipping pumpkin spice lattes or making s'mores on a front porch styled with seasonal pillows.
