Lay a decorative window seat cushion on the seat. Choose a fabric that accentuates the other colors in the room. Large patterns, plaids or bold colors direct the eye to this unusual feature in your home. Window seat cushions come in many sizes and prints to enhance any style decor.
Put throw pillows all along the window seat area. If you use a print on the window seat cushions, choose pillows in solid colors that complement the design. They add comfort to the space and are a perfect way to enhance the accent colors in the room.
Drape a handmade quilt or a soft, luxurious feeling afghan at one end of the window seat. This enables you to reach it quickly if you get chilly or if you want to cuddle with your child while reading him a storybook.
Arrange a couple of stuffed animals on the window seat if it is in a child's bedroom. This provides a place for a small child to nap, read or daydream.
Set bolsters on the ends of the window seat for a soft place to rest your back. If you can't find one in the correct size, have them custom made by a seamstress.
