Frilly-edged cushions are the easy way to add playful, feminine style to your home
Decorative cushions are a simple way to layer up soft textures in your home – and frilly designs are perfect for creating a sense of cosy romance.
When looking for ways to add personality, warmth, colour or texture to your home, scattering decorative cushions is a sure-fire way to do just that. They instantly elevate the cosy factor of a room, and have the power to transform an empty and uninviting sofa into a pillowy palace you’ll never want to leave.
There are so many types of decorative cushion to choose from, but one homeware trend we can’t get away from right now is frilly cushions. Everywhere we look we’re stumbling over a ruffle or frill edge, and it’s no wonder. It might seem like a subtle detail, but a frilly cushion can immediately bring a soft, playful and romantic feel to your decor.
There are so many frilly cushions out there right now, that you’re bound to find one that suits your style, whether it’s plain or patterned, velvet or cotton, muted tones or bright. Here are some of the most stylish frilly cushions for you to add to your collection now.
