Decorating With Plaid | Where To Buy Plaid Tartan Pillows & Throws

There’s nothing quite as classic than decorating with plaid. Whether it be a beautiful tartan or a simple buffalo check, if there’s one thing I learned from my mom in regards to how to decorate for the holidays it’s that one must always decorate with plaid.

I’ve only just scratched the surface on my plaid collection compared to my mom but you better believe I’m on a mission! Last year my mom gave me not one, but TWO Pendleton plaid blankets for Christmas. A beautiful red and green tartan plaid (similar) and a classic blue, gray and green plaid blanket (similar) — both are currently on display throughout my apartment.

One of my favorite plaid purchases to-date has to be this beautiful green wool plaid blanket produced in one of the oldest Scottish Mills I picked up at a boutique in Lenox, MA when I visited Annie Selke’s 33 Main last year called Mackimmie Co. I don’t think they have an online shop but if you message the owner on Instagram, she’s more than happy to place an order over the internet and ship directly — which is exactly what I’m going to do this year!

If you’re looking to shop online directly, Williams-Sonoma in my opinion has the best collection of plaid throws and pillows this year. My number one pick has to be this Jacquard Cashmere Throw. And if there is one plaid item on my wish list, it would have to be this Ralph Lauren Black Watch Throw Pillow.
