Pillows for leather sectional..and/or throw....
Hello everyone! I really need your help please. I would like some pillows for my leather sectional; however, I do not know which color I should bring out so that all coordinates and/or simply a throw. Also, it seems that something is missing next to the wall hanging -tapestry? I really appreciate your time in helping me with your ideas/suggestions.
on the ottoman, I have a tray and decor bottles, see picture below.

What I do is go to discount stores like Tjmax, Ross, Marshals and Tuesday Mornings ...look on their clearance isles for ugly cheap pillows that are feather/down pillows. You want a down pillow for leather because after the karate chop they stay in place a little better and don't slide off as easy. Next, go to etsy or an online site that sells zippered decorative pillow "covers" that fit your down pillows. I have had some of the same down pillows for over 15 years and just buy new zippered covers occasionally. Etsy has some nice pillow covers.
Can you post a better picture of the colors?

Comments (21)sarschlos_remodeler, that's a very good argument for not using an in-store decorator! :-) (Or being very stubborn if you do!) valley57, many catalogs sell the pillow covers by themselves and you have to buy the stuffers separately - a couple off the top of my head are Pottery Barn, Garnet Hill, and Restoration Hardware. Todo Es does semi-custom pillow covers. Puffy Pillow Productions has a pretty limited selection but low prices. Etsy.com has some rather interesting handmade ones. There's eBay, too, of course. For someone who really really wants decorative pillows with leather furniture but finds down too squashy, a little scrap of that rubbery mesh that's used for lining shelves or anchoring rugs tacked with a few stitches to the back of the pillow, just above the bottom seam, will often keep them from slithering off. Query: Am I the only one on this planet who thinks throws look a bit messy? I feel very odd because it seems like everyone's so "into" throws. Maybe it's a leftover from my stepmother indoctrinating me into never leaving something draped over a piece of furniture instead of putting it away. :-) We have some small blankets (50x72" throws from Land's End) for "nesting" on the couch when it's cold but I keep them rolled or folded up in a basket when they're not in use. Or I try to anyway, DH tends to just leave them wadded up on the couch. *affectionate eyeroll*...See MoreThrow Pillows
Comments (21)Sorry Janice, I mean removing the table all together and just placing this table on the right side of the sofa with the present lamp on it. It will have a smaller footprint. Do you think the space will feel weird with nothing in the middle of the two seats? Similar to this: [Contemporary Living Room design[(https://www.houzz.com/photos/contemporary-living-room-ideas-phbr1-bp~t_718~s_2103) by San Francisco Interior Designer Found Design But then Im thinking If Im going to get a round table...should I even bother getting those side tables? olychick, Thanks for clarifying! Do you think I need an additional color to the yellow/goldish color? btw thanks for teaching me "kitty corner" I've never heard that term before. I had to look it up. I will snap more updates soon! Thank you for the quick replies. much appreciated! This post was edited by jkhan82 on Tue, Mar 5, 13 at 16:58...See MoreAccent family room with pillows and throws

6 years ago..I got this catalog in email today..Grandinroad..never bought from them before..but that's how I remembered that pillows made like rug are called kilim pillows..:)
I''l put together several for you..and for myself-to see whether it works with your colors..is's hard to see when you skip between the tabs..but basically the principle stays-different cozy and textured materials..you don't want silk for example-will slide..and you wont get the same dimension with sleek on sleek as you'll get by mixing a variety
there are obviously thousands of pillows out there..their prices are okay I'd say. colors and shapes vary, obviously. the only pillow i never saw before is this ray pillow:) I like how it has silver in it..but not too much. it is a bit weird:)
