Styling with Colour and Texture

Today we’re back with the third instalment of our how-to film series, ‘Style it, Make it‘, in partnership with Sheridan!

Texture is so important when it comes to bed styling. When buying cushions, blankets or throws – I’m always drawn to the *feel* of the item, as much as the look. After all, comfort comes first! Combining different textures adds dimension to the bed – I love velvet cushions, chunky knitted throws and super soft ‘hug-able’ pillows.

When it comes to colour, there are no rules! Add one or two vibrant scatter cushions to a neutral bed, for an instant lift. For a bolder look, try switching out neutral pillowcases for something more vibrant (they don’t have to match!). And if you’re brave, go for the full colour experience – we love Ken Done’s brilliant, crazy colourful ‘Saturday Sailing‘ quilt cover print for Sheridan. #YOLO !

 

We love Ken Done’s colourful capsule bedlinen collection, created for Sheridan’s 50th Anniversary – shop here.
