Christmas throw pillows do more seasonal work per square foot than almost any other decoration. A few of them change a sofa in a minute, they store flat for eleven months, and they need no upkeep once they are out. That is why holiday pillows tend to be the first thing out after Thanksgiving and the last thing back in the box.
The collection starts with lettered Christmas pillows: plaid ruffle pillows that say Merry and 'Tis the Season, a red Fa La La lumbar, and a green buffalo check Merry pillow. Needlepoint pillows bring a sense of humor, from cocktail hour to Holly Jolly Era. Then come the shaped pillows: plaid gift box pillows in small, medium, and large, and ornament pillows topped with tartan bows, made to pile under the tree or across a bed.
For a sofa, start with two larger squares at the outer corners and a lumbar in the middle, keeping one pattern as the lead. Plaid Christmas pillows layer easily with pink and red, and a cluster of gift box or ornament pillows reads playful on a bed or a window seat. Find more in our pink Christmas and plaid Christmas collections.
