Bed Pillows. Keep it Simple.


Ever wondered how to arrange pillows on your bed? 
It can be a real science, and sometimes I think people (even designers) go a little bit overboard.
 I've come up with a diagram of my favorite ways to arrange pillows as well as a few inspiration pics.

 I'm also a big proponent of being able to leave the pillows you actual sleep with on your bed when you make it. If you're like me, I don't find it very convenient to have to find a place to hide out my pillows. Just make sure the pillows you sleep with are in nice pillowcases, not your Disney sheets.
I've also included some diagrams that other designers have come up with. Some of them are a little complex and overdone, but they at least give you a method to the madness. 

Enjoy! 

















These inspiration pics and their links, as well as many other examples, can be found on my
