I know I’m majorly biased in this department as (for those of you who don’t know it already) handmade cushions is where LMH the business and the blog all began, I was really struggling to find unique soft furnishings for my new home that didn’t cost the earth (and moon and planets…). I signed up for a sewing class and made my own from vintage textiles and it all came about from there. If, like me, you love to change the feel of a room regularly then cushions are one of the easiest, most affordable and sustainable ways to do so.
In the living room I love to change from vintage silk cushions to denim or wool…all work well with the grey, striped sofa and the rest of the rooms design scheme.
In the bedroom I change from a deep purple selection to a long hessian grain sack cushion, both change the look and feel of the room instantly.
Cushions can also add subtle personality to a room by featuring a wedding themed design for newlyweds or a vintage design featuring the owners favourite chocolate bar.
So there you go, cushions are completely essential to satisfy our need for change enough to stop us browsing Rightmove, right? If you’d like to add to your cushion collection we’re currently having a massive clearance over in the LMH store, below is a little slideshow of my favourites:
