I feel like a total pillow pusher right now — I can’t stop thinking about new pillows for the studio and our apartment. Pillows are like a great pair of shoes: they can make or break the look, and you can never have too many. Some people even compare them to earrings for the couch — a cute analogy that fits.
If you want an affordable way to refresh a seating area, a few new pillows will probably do the trick. It’s much cheaper (and easier) than buying a whole new sofa. If, however, you do need a new couch, I gathered my favorite budget-friendly options in one place: the coolest couches under $1,000. #shamelessplug
