Anyone fancy finding me a nice throw for this new blue sofa?

New sofa arriving today. Want a nice throw for it (not to cover, just to drape and use as occasional blanket).

Like: vintage, colour, 'quirky' prints, monochrome.

Dislike: anything beige/brown/cream, chenille, fleece, pompoms.

First thought is mustard but it feels a bit passé at this stage with the blue.

Budget up to £30-40 but would prefer cheaper.

Have looked at usual dept stores, wayfair etc but nothing grabbing me.

Thanks Soola.

Would pay more for something that I really loved. I don't like that one at all unfortunately, the paisley looks really dated to me.

I don´t know if you´re looking for a contrasting or complementing colour but there are lots of nice ones at Woolovers. How about this one?. There´s also this in yellow which might look good.

As you said you like monochrome, what about this Ikea throw? £25 so within budget. www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/johanne-throw-black-white-black-natural-70385848/

The Paisley one is fabulous. I have been looking for one to replace the Liberty Paisley throw on my royal blue velvet sofa. Have made a note on my phone!

Oh - and Paisley is classic not “old fashioned”, OP! You should mix it a bit. One style is a bit unimaginative and dull. Imo

Sorry, OP, your word was “dated”. I misquoted.

NoTheresa · 03/09/2019 16:16

Same point though.
