Bedroom Accessories: Cushion Covers and Furniture

Cushion covers and inserts: size, closure and fabric

Many listings here are cushion or pillow covers, often 18 by 18 or 20 by 20 inches. Covers are usually sold without an insert, so buy that separately and check its size before you commit. Envelope closures are easy to wash and hold the insert behind overlapping flaps; zippers are neater but add a hard edge. Fabric sets the feel: corduroy and chenille are textured and warm, microfiber and polyester resist wrinkles, and solid, striped or floral designs change the mood.

Desks and display cabinets sold as accents

Some listings here are furniture: computer desks, tiered display cabinets in glass or metal mesh, and cabinets with RGB lighting. These come flat-packed with an assembly step, so check the finished dimensions against the wall and the door swing. Lighting accessories such as strip controllers need a power source and often a remote, so confirm what is included. Tall or narrow cabinets can tip, especially with children around, so anchor them to the wall with the strap supplied or your own fixings, and keep heavy items on lower shelves.

Questions about Bedroom Accessories: Cushion Covers and Furniture

What insert size goes with an 18-inch cushion cover?

Choose a 20-inch insert for a full, plump cushion, or an 18-inch insert for a flatter, tailored look. A much larger insert strains the seams and corners, while a much smaller one leaves empty corners.

Do display cabinets with RGB lighting need special care?

Keep the controller and power adapter dry and ventilated, and do not cover the strips with items that trap heat. Dust the glass and strips with a dry cloth, and check the cabinet's shelf weight limit before loading it.

What should I check on a desk sold as a bedroom accent?

Check the top's width and depth, the height (about 29 to 30 inches is common), and the leg room underneath. Make sure drawers do not hit the chair and that the surface suits a monitor and a laptop.
