An easy way to refresh your space is with new throw pillows and pillow covers. This selection of neutral coastal throw pillows will work anywhere in your home.

Using throw pillows — also referred to as decorative pillows, accent pillows, or decor pillows — is an easy way to update and elevate your space affordably. Throw pillows add texture, pattern, and interest, while also making your room feel cozier, more sophisticated and tied together.

Throw pillows can be used to add a finishing touch to your space and can decorate couches, chairs, benches, beds, and reading nooks. They can be used in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and entranceways. You can choose matching throw pillows or mix-and-match different patterns, colors and materials. You can use neutral throw pillows to add a pop of pattern or texture, create a relaxing and inviting atmosphere and aesthetic, or to balance a colorful accent piece. Really, the possibilities are endless.

When selecting coastal throw pillows, you’ll want to stick with colors that exist naturally along the coast or beach, like blues and neutrals. Soothing neutral colors are reminiscent of beach sand, shells, stones, and beachgrasses, and help you feel connected to nature. Tan, beige, off-white, khaki, cream, oat, taupe, bone, natural, ivory, honey, ecru, sand, wheat, and white are all considered neutral colors.

Here you’ll find our top picks for a variety of neutral decorative pillows, including options with stripes, patterns, floral and botanical prints, solid colors, and geometric designs, for a variety of budgets.

One thing to note is that some throw pillows are sold with a throw pillow cover and a throw pillow insert cushion, whereas others come with just the cover. The good thing about buying throw pillow covers is that you can easily store and swap out different covers at different times of year without taking up the amount of storage space that entire pillows would require. If you need throw pillow inserts, these insert cushions are a great option because you can choose from many sizes and they have great reviews.
