Hello everyone! Today I'm introducing a new "How To" series where I will share ways to update and arrange the simple things in your home. Today, we talk pillows. Pillow talk, if you will.
There are so many ways that you can arrange pillows on your bed. Endless options, really. You should remember that everyone is different, and you should always do what works best for you. However, sometimes the little things can really be the most difficult thing to achieve. Sometimes it takes a lot of thought to get those pillows to look like the glossy magazines, so here are a few of my favorite options for arranging the pillows on your bed!
OPTION ONE: the Triple Euro Stack

The Triple Euro stack works best on king sized beds. It also works in a situation where there is no headboard (the large Euro shams act as great backdrop in the headboard's absence). Prop three large Euro pillows in the back, layer two king-sized shams in front, and top off with a small triangle of accent pillows.
OPTION TWO: the Double Euro Stack
The Double Euro Stack is similar to the Triple Stack, but works on smaller beds (or even a king bed with a patterned headboard). Take two Euro shams and prop a larger accent pillow in front. Then layer your standard shams in front and top with a smaller rectangular accent (or even a small bolster).
OPTION THREE: the Hidden Pillow Stack
This option works if you have several standard of king shams that you like to sleep with. Stack those on first along the back of the bed. Prop two Euro shams in front, and top with two similarly sized rectangular accent pillows. This works if the color or pattern on the Euro shams are bright and you want to use them as the focal point!
OPTION FOUR: the Single Bolster Option
I love this look on a Queen or King bed. Use three (or two, if you have them!) Euro shams in the back, layer your standard or king shams in front, and top with a long bolster in a pretty pattern. You could also use a pop of color with a pretty greek key trim on the bolster. This makes the bed look longer, and really ties the look together.
OPTION FIVE: the Upright Stack
This option is simple and straightforward. This works in the situation where you either don't have or don't like accent pillows. Just simple stack the pillows upwards, starting with the largest on the bottom!
OPTION SIX: the Double Stack Single Euro
This option works the same way as the simple stack in option five. Just simply stack the pillows upwards, and use large Euro shams in front. This works great to prop up the large Euro pillows, and gives the bed a nice, clean look.
So there are a few of my favorite options! How do you stack your pillows? Next time, I'll be sharing my how to tips on how to arrange an area rug in your space!
