How to Accessorize a Couch

A couch is one of the most used pieces of furniture in a house, so it helps to change up its look with accessories. It doesn’t take much to accessorize a couch in terms of time or materials, and the payoff is significant. Because couches tend to be the most expensive piece of furniture in a room, adding accessories is often a more affordable option than purchasing a new piece, whether you want a whole new look or just a tweak on the old one.
