Finding the Right Size
The pillow must be the right size for the space. Pillows that are too large or too small will look out of place. If the chair has an existing pillow in an appealing size, measure the pillow and use it as a guideline for selecting your pillow inserts. Small, rectangular pillows are ideal for placement on a single chair or used as a final accent in front of larger pillows on a bed. Large pillows, such as a 24-inch by 24-inch pillow or a 20-inch by 20-inch pillows are great for placement on a bed or sofa.
