Previously the Front Room has contained other people's old furniture. It has the Barbie Glamour Jet in one corner, a very poor excuse for a 'desk' in another corner, there are wires hanging out of the walls for a surround sound system that we don't own, the previous owners tried to do us a favour by making it easy to plug our own system in...if only.
But finally the new couch has arrived. I wanted modern but not to modern. A back that was not too low and not too high. I wanted some colour.
The Monti arrived and fits perfectly.
But he needs some cushions.
Buying cushions is hard work. I keep seeing so many that I like, some are very very expensive and Mr H requests I keep looking for a few more.
Here are some of my favourites that I have found on the Down That Little Lane website. I like a cushion with a message and a bit of colour, but there are pages and pages and pages of cushions over there.
Then I saw these at Country Road, I like them, but they are a chain store which means these cushions are going to be everywhere and that white sparkly look will not last more than three minutes in my house.
A few clicks later and I am over on Made it and I find this one, among 678 others.
So while it took me four years to find the couch, I never expected the cushions to be so difficult to decide upon.
Where do you buy your cushions?
We had cushions once. Many years ago, pre children. I didn't even notice they were gone (or maybe I didn't remember we ever had them) until recently.
ReplyDeleteI can't remember where we got them but I recall they were a lovely lime green. Sorry, I can't be of any actual help.
I make them! So that I can change them whenever I feel and I don't feel so bad!
ReplyDeleteI am in the process of trying to deccide on cushions too. At the moment I am addicted to Etsy. I downloaded the app and just look at cushion after cushion after cushion.
ReplyDeleteI make my own out of cool teatowels. You know the ones thst you love but really have no need for?
