We have chosen these couches (umm white, I know, yes we do have a child ::wink:: )

With the walls being a neutral nothing really we're going to need accessories to jazz things up a bit.
I've found these cushions

Now I think the colours go ok, but i'm not sure about having the same pattern, should I try and get cushions with a different pattern or a solid colour or something to bring a bit of interest or am I way off track?

I think the 2 patterns together is a bit much, I'd take the colour out of one of the patterns and get a cushion in the same colour family with some texture- like a plain blue one with ruffles or something

Gorgeous couch- I'd need to wrap it in plastic in my house tho

I agree, have one lot of cushions without a pattern. I have some areas with two patterns, but not the same pattern, but I always add a plain cushion into the mix.

I agree it is a bit much, I would go 1 pillow and something more solid as the second pillow

I do agree with the above posts - I love those orange cushions, they're great!

Thanks everybody, yeah the two together are too busy.

Now i'm thinking the colours might be too bright as well for the look we're after.

Just got to keep my eyes open until I find what I want

Etsy.com so many gorgeous things!
