Quick fix for a dull sofa.

 
 
Growing tired of the same surroundings can happen so easily, but it's not so easy and cheap to change the decor or to get a new sofa. Sometimes all you need  to do is to add a new colour, throw in a few different textures, shapes and sizes and hey presto! A re-vamped sofa that will look and feel brand new.  

Here I have made a collage of some cushions with a throw with a Vintage French feel. I chose to base these around the colour blue. Every time I think of France, the colour blue always pops into my mind, without fail. Maybe it's their beautiful blue skies or that Belle, from Beauty and the Beast, wears a blue dress. (My favourite childhood movie!) 

There's never a right or wrong when it comes to deciding how many cushions you want on a sofa, sizes or shapes. It all depends on your own personal taste. Different textures and sizes will add interest meaning you'll find it hard to get bored of them, and friends and family will be naturally drawn to your sofa! Using different tints, tones and shades of the same colour will tie the scheme together making it look appealing and welcoming.
