    Funny you should mention using throw pillows in every room in the house. I did some interior decorating recently and used pillows with food patterns in my kitchen! I’m sure it wasn’t a totally original idea but people did ‘ooh’ and ‘aah’ when they saw them.

    Throw pillows are increasing in popularity. I’ve seen beds with special-made compartments for storing them as well as trunks sold for that expressed purpose.
