A throne is more than just somewhere to sit; it’s a statement. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to tailor your home’s interior with the changing of the seasons.
The seasonal styling of your throne ensures that your home’s center piece is precisely that and a focal point for your family during Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.
At Throne Kingdom, we’ve been inspired by many of our customers who have positioned and styled their thrones in many different ways.
Here, we share some throne styling ideas throughout the seasons, inspired by our creative customers who have made their thrones a statement piece of furniture at different times of the year.
Spring: Fresh & Floral for a New Beginning
Spring ushers in fresh starts and new beginnings. After the lull of mid-Winter, Spring is the perfect time to breathe fresh life into your home.
One of the best ways to do this is to bring the outside in, via floral decorations and plants that can spruce up your living space. Depending on where you live, it may also be the perfect time to open your patio doors, for early summer garden parties and family events like christenings and Easter gatherings.
But what does this mean for your throne? Some ideas for styling include:
-
Floral garlands draped around the frame are a subtle and simple way to decorate your throne in Spring. Opt for seasonal flowers like tulips and peonies to strike the perfect balance.
-
Pastel throws & cushions: Soft pinks, mint greens, and baby blues are some of the colors of spring. Add cushions or throws to your throne following this simple yet fresh color scheme.
While you don’t need a special event to motivate you to style your throne in Spring, baby showers, gender reveals, and christenings are all perfect opportunities to dress your throne in new colors and materials at this time of the year.
Summer: Bold Colors for Boho Vibes
Summer is the season of love, and it could be time for your throne to take up permanent residence outside (weather permitting, of course).
While Spring was all about soft pastels and florals, in Summer, you can opt for bold, bright colors that deliver good vibes only. Whether you’re hosting a family BBQ or a summer party, your throne can play a starring role.
We love scrolling on Insta to see how our customers style their thrones outside during the summer, and would love to share these boho trends and ideas with you:
-
Bright & bold fabrics: Style your throne with light, bright, and bold fabrics that bring your chair to life. Lean on tropical influences and think of rich blues, reds, and oranges that evoke memories of beach sunsets. You can also switch your soft pink and baby blue cushions for something much bolder.
-
Boho accents: Free spirited and eclectic, boho accents are a summer touch of interior designers the world over. Think of bright colored and textured throws and fabrics that add something unique to the chair.
-
Tropical flowers: While Spring is all about tulips and peonies, Summer is the ideal opportunity to decorate your throne with seasonal, tropical flowers. Hibiscus and palm leaves work perfectly, particularly if you’re planning a cocktail party or summer garden party with your loved ones.
Fall: Warm, Rich, & Rustic Touches
Following the hedonism of Summer, Fall is all about slowing down the pace of life. Warm, rich, and rustic touches around the house make you want to retire in front of the fire, with a warm mug of cocoa after a long day of work.
Your throne can take center stage for any Fall gathering you arrange, be it a harvest festival, early Thanksgiving celebrations, or Halloween.
Here are some ideas of how to add subtle, rustic touches to your throne that will make you want to snuggle in under a warm woollen blanket for a night of relaxation:
-
Rustic touches: Golden leaves and acorns are subtle rustic touches you can add to the base of the throne. In the week leading up to Halloween, small pumpkins may also be a welcome addition.
-
Earthy tones: Burnt orange, deep burgundy, and forest green are all fabulous Fall colors for your home and throne in particular.
-
Plaid and tweed fabrics can also work perfectly as throws or cushions, adding to the cosy, comfortable vibe of your throne at this time of the year.
Throne Kingdom Expert Tip: If you’re looking for the perfect throne for your Halloween party or celebrations, gothic thrones are ideal. They’re available in many sizes, perfect for kids or adults to enjoy the unique culturual significance of Halloween.
Winter: Festive Feels and Rich, Bright Colors
We’ve now arrived in December, the time of the year at which your throne can play so many roles. It’s the ideal seat for Santa Claus, but it’s also a great option for winter wonderlands featuring Disney princesses attending holiday parties.
Day to day, there are many ways to style your throne at this time of the year, including:
-
Typical holiday touches: Holly, ivy, berries and ferns are wonderful additions to throne chairs in the lead-up to Christmas.
-
Metallic detailing: Silvers and golds can elevate the throne, with tinsel on the arms or back, a simple way to take things to the next level.
-
Icy colors: Rather than warm festive feels, icy tones and colors can work for your throne at Christmas. Icy blues and deep royal accents are ideal. Add cushions, throws, and fabrics to create this theme.
