Help with throw pillows

Any suggestions for throw pillows? I was thinking maybe a white or cream to brighten up the room, but I would love some color and I do not know what would work. The walls are Benjamin Moore Nantucket grey and the couches are almost a green/cream/tan. Please help!!

klvollertsen I'm not much of an interior designer but think some bright yellow and pink (going with the colors in vase) would add a great splash of color to your beautiful scheme!

judyg You definitely want some red with Nantucket Gray. These throws are fun, with several of your colors and a silk stitching to give a little sheen.

Love to see a red coffee table, too. Or a big red bowl, or a red tray on top of the one you have now.

yayagal I'd like to see something with a little more energy like the one below, then find a solid for the other chair in one of the tones of the first pillow. A rug with some of those tones would really perk up the room, under the sofa and the coffee table.

michigammemom Take a look at West Elm's new throw pillow collection. I like the graphic nature of this fun combination.

carolannr I think definitely a natural wool fibre patterned like a kilm (i think that's how you spell that) on generous sized pillows will add alot to thie room - reds, blues, maybe even a touch of yellow. You need texture as well as color.
