Instructions

    • 1

      Cover the floor with a soft carpeting or assorted area or throw rugs. Choose shag or plush fibers to cushion your bare feet and provide a luxuriant feeling. Utilize these types of floor coverings in the bedrooms and bathrooms as well.

    • 2

      Pick upholstery fabrics in microfiber materials to provide a soft, plush feel to your furniture. Choose sinuous springs rather than coils. These springs are zigzagged or S-shaped and cradle your body more comfortably. Foam cushions provide softness and comfort, yet still provide adequate support in the cushions.

    • 3

      Lay a cashmere, angora or other soft, sumptuous throw over one end of the couch. This adds a plush coverup for TV viewers or someone reading during chilly weather.

    • 4

      Set throw pillows on your bed, sofa and other chairs to provide soft, comfortable support and added color and texture to the furnishings. Choose silk, satins or other materials with a silky feel or opulent appearance.

    • 5

      Pick bedding that is smooth and shiny such as satin or silk to add a majestic sheen to the bed. Another option is a velvety textured chenille or a thick comforter.
