It’s Fashion Week in New York and we’re all about taking the trend and applying to your everyday lifestyle. Just because we can’t rip a runway doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take the trends we’ve spotted and add them to our home. Right now embellishments are really HOT! We love the idea of sprucing up your store bought look with a little personalized accents. Here are some fun ways to embellish your accent pillows!
The Rosette
Take your typical pillow and go rose crazy! Simply head to your favorite craft or fabric store and pick up some paper or material rosettes which can be found in the crafting area. Mix and match different styles and patterns for a full bouquet look. Simply pick up some fabric glue and paste them to your accent pillow. If you really feel like being crafty make your own rosette flowers out of left over ribbon and material.
Rows Of Ribbon
This is probably the simplest way to spice up your boring accent pillows. Align them with different color ribbons to add a pop of color and pattern. Use fabric clue to paste them onto your pillow. Mixing colors and and patterns on different size pillows can dress up a space like no other!
BOLD Sequins Lines
Going for a glam look? Sequins will do the trick! Just as the rows of ribbon pillows are created go for the same look with sequins. Choosing a shiny material makes your space even more glamorous and bold. Create a balance with sequins and solid colors so that your accent pillow isn’t blinding.
