The classic look requires four pillows in total, making this a great option for those who enjoy a timeless and practical interior design style. This styling method will use euro pillows to frame the bed, making this a great option for those that don’t have a headboard. Although, it looks just as good if you do have a headboard. Give this one a try and see how adding some extra pillows can elevate your bedroom.
What you’ll need:
How to achieve this look: Place the two euro pillows at the back, against your headboard or where a headboard would usually be. Then stack your two standard pillows in front of the euro pillows, one on each side. Your bed will look put together and super sophisticated and you’re only adding two extra pillows into the mix!
If you’re looking for a styling method that is practical, you probably don’t want lots of pillows crowding your bed. Instead, consider keeping things nice and simple. That way, when bedtime rolls around, you won’t need to faff around, taking pillows off your bed. Instead, you can jump straight in and go to sleep. If this sounds good to you, consider this:
What you’ll need:
How to achieve this look: Simply stack two standard pillows on top of each other, on each side of your bed. For this look, we recommend choosing down-feathered standard pillows. This style of pillow is usually fuller, which feels more luxurious. This is a great option when using fewer pillows. So, although it is a practical styling method, it will still look great.
If you’re looking for something that’s more of a statement, consider going for a more luxurious styling method. Style your bed like those you see in interior design magazines. Here's how you can try it at home:
What you’ll need:
How to achieve this look: Stack two standard pillows on top of each other, on each side of the bed. Then layer your euro pillows out in front. Your euro pillows should be resting against the standard pillows. Ensure you fit the three euro pillows in front, in one row.

What you’ll need:
How to achieve this look: Simply, place two standard pillows on top of each other. Do this on each side of the bed. Then rest a euro pillow against them on each side. Try this pillow arrangement with some beautiful neutral linen sheets and you’ll achieve that minimalist chic look in no time.

Who doesn’t love a beautifully styled bed? It’s so inviting and not to mention it’s a great way to elevate your bedroom. But, not everyone wants to spend time arranging pillows every day and then taking them off the bed at night. It can also mean you have more washing do to each week. So, before you commit to a style, ask yourself if it works for you. If you’re someone who prefers jumping into bed at night, without the hassle, consider choosing a more minimalist or practical look. The choice is all yours, showcase your own interior design flare and get ready to give your bed a makeover.
