Everything about this video is excellent! The content, images and your talking speed and deportment. You got straight to the point and were clear and articulate! Thank you!
She makes some good points about size and filling, but that’s where we part company. I design pillows and think of them as small pieces of art. I don’t limit myself to placing them just on sofas and beds; to me, art fits anywhere. And I don’t think of my floors as “the ground”; my carpets are vacuumed every day, and I love placing pillows of all sizes around my rooms. They aren’t out of place on my bookshelves and side tables.
Nice tutorial, I learned what material to use as an insert and why... I like the chop method but have a 150 year old house so Why Bother it gets to the floor anyway... LOL
Let’s talk form over function. The former is the emphasis in this video. Okay, a lot of pillows together may look pretty and introduce spark to a room. But, sofas and chairs are for people to sit on in comfort. There has to be room to accommodate that. One pillow behind each person is useful. If there are more than 3 on a sofa, for instance, how do the sitters deal with the excess pillows? Ditto on a bed. The pile of decorative pillows has to have its own resting spot when it is time to get into bed. Ask a guest who has to politely honor the stack when their personal items need to occupy horizontal surfaces in the room. Do they pitch pillows on the floor? Well, you get my point.
Can you share some stores or brands that sell 5% vs 30% down inserts? Since watching this super, awesome helpful video I’ve gone to Homegoods and could only find 100% polyester decorative pillows. Now I’m looking online at Crate & Barrel, where I can only find 95/5 feather/down, and West Elm is only listing inserts as “100% feather down” (so 70/3 or 95/5 for $18.50?) Any more general buying tips would be appreciated even if you don’t name specific companies! Anyway, you’re lovely and these tips were fabulous, have a wonderful day 🤗🏠
Love your channel. My design dillema is my living room where fireplace is off centered and there are so many pathways needed. My symmetry loving mind can not figure out how to place furniture around it. Any idea?
I checked out your two links for down feather alternatives thinking these were going to be links for down feather inserts for throw pillows. Do you have a good link for a down feather alternative insert for throw pillows? Looking for something that looks full, can be washed, and can be "chopped."
Hi Olga, I`m a big fan and follower of your RUclips channel, it has been a great help For me! I would love if you can please do a video about armchairs and how to decorate a living room with a Red sofa as the centre piece ( Colour pallet Red And pastels Blues)
What would you recommend for a mustard yellow couch ? I have a lounge couch and the color is already busy.. I want to put pillows but I’m so confused on what would look good
Thank you, Olga, for another helpful video. I do have a design dilemma that I’d love to have your help with. We have a large great room with a seating area in front of a fireplace (90” sofa flanked by two side chairs; one upholstered and one leather with a round coffee table in front of all). The other area is a dining table with four side chairs. My 3-part dilemma is rugs beneath these two areas. We love rugs, but it seems that to place a rug beneath each of these areas will 1) cover our gorgeous wood floors, 2) cause a hassle when cleaning/vacuuming, and 3) cause the potential for the rugs to not lay flat beneath the furniture. By not having rugs, are we breaking all the design rules? Are my three concerns invalid? Is my great room design incomplete without two area rugs? Help please!

I was excited to check the suggested websites for inserts, but they were ALL for bed pillows. Where do you go to purchase reasonably priced inserts?
Just found you today and subscribed, love your content. Please tell me you aren't still chopping cushions in 2021? lol x
I chop. It's a good frustration buster too.
Well that was educational!
Great! Thanks for watching!

How do you coordinate pillows on sofa AND chairs that are in the same room? I can't find any videos on this

what about 1 seater couch, is it better to hava a pillow or none
I have a huge french bakers rack and don't know how to decorate it.
I chop if feather/down. No chop on others.
Look on pinterest, there are a lot of good ideas.
Good information.I have an L shaped sofa with white walls What patterned cushions can I buy?
Whichever pattern makes you happy! Thanks for watching!
@@Designchickee Thank you for your response.

Thanks for your question... maybe this video will help you?? ruclips.net/video/mSL8c7wO3F0/видео.html
Down is cruel....better to go with an alternative!
How to make decorative pillows for daybed
Question....... I’m so confused as to what size insert is best...... same size insert as pillow or bigger insert?
Thanks!
My cushions don’t stay on a leather sofa .. it is white and continuous one ! Help !!
Sounds like a physics problem. You need fabric friction! LOL
What size insert should go in a 22 inch pillow? Is the rule of thumb 2 inches less than the pillow itself?
Yes, that is correct!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My sofa is 90 inches with 4 cushions. Should I add decorative pillows?
Yes! Check out this video for tips! ruclips.net/video/wQzNqCbfHds/видео.html

How do you keep your pillows fresh?
hey you did'nt cover chairs or cushions to sit on in chairs,do over!
Oh. Ok!
Guests keep putting pillows on the floor. Why bother with pillows when they remove them?
Pillows add to your decor. Whether they're on the floor or not! :)
I think that filling your pillows with down feathers is very inhumane. Otherwise, the video was very informative.
