Mix and Match Modern Pillow Covers

Welcome back my decorating series

Get the Modern Classic Look for Less!

My favorite home decorating style is a mix of contemporary modern and classic traditional. I think the two styles pair so well together and create a fresh, and casual atmosphere in a home. Whenever I’m browsing through Pinterest, “Modern Classic” is a style that I see all throughout designer homes. I love the look, but I don’t love the price!

I’m a big believer that you can have a stylish home on a regular budget. There’s no reason that you need to spend $90 on a pillow cover (for example) in order to have a beautiful home. That’s just crazy! So, I decided it was time to start figuring out how I could get that modern classic look for less.

Today I’m sharing my favorite mix & match modern pillow covers.

Throw pillows are so much fun to decorate with. They add tons of charm and personality to a living room.

The best way to change up your pillows is to buy nice, high-quality pillow forms and change out the pillow covers. It’s much more cost-effective than buying new pillows all the time and allows you to play around with different colors and patterns whenever you feel like changing up your decor.

I really like these inserts here and here. I also like to browse the clearance section of HomeGoods for pillows that have great inserts. Even if the covers are terrible, they are worth buying at a clearance price just for the inserts.
Mixing pillow covers that have different colors and patterns creates a lot of interest and make a room feel really pulled together. Here are some of my favorites!

Bigger patterns also look great when they are done in a single color. This feather pillow cover is playful but still traditional enough to work in a living room.
