Honest opinions please. Do these cushions look okay? **Pic attached

Please excuse the mess.

I bought these cushions with some Xmas money I had but I’m just not sure if it looks OTT? Any opinions welcome ☺️

Love them!!

Happysummer2020 · 11/01/2020 13:05

I like them but would arrange them differently to break up the symmetry- maybe diamond shaped and overlapping in the middle of the bed?

Amiable · 11/01/2020 13:07

They are gorgeous! As PP says, maybe try them at an angle, funny how something so simple can change a whole look.

Whatsnewpussyhat · 11/01/2020 13:12

Nowt wrong with them.
Love the quilted throw, looks so cosy.

Ninkanink · 11/01/2020 13:12

Yes, but they would benefit from a third cushion (maybe round, or oblong, or at least a smaller square) in a coordinating colour and a different texture, maybe velvet? -
Your bedding is already a grid with square pattern so you want to break up those lines a bit.

As others suggest, placing them on the diagonal would help.

It looks lovely and luxurious.

Coco88 · 11/01/2020 13:15

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Is this better?

I love your bedcover, what is it?

Livebythecoast · 11/01/2020 13:20

That's much better!
May I ask where the mess is?!

Anothercrapyear · 11/01/2020 13:20

Oh the cushions are great too!

MsSweeney · 11/01/2020 13:22

Lovely!

Sunsetsandmoons · 11/01/2020 13:24

That’s better! I’m going to try that with mine now!

I also think a third one would look better and don't like cushions that are angled and sit on a point.

Several would be even better, if you are going to do something, do it really well, odd numbers are always best.

FuckyNel · 11/01/2020 14:02

I’ve got a throw like that it’s a cozee home one from qvc here

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 11/01/2020 14:03

Has anyone else got an urge to put a pair of eyes on the cushions

Serious comment. I think you need something. Maybe another small cushion in a different colour to create a bit of contrast.

ShowOfHands · 11/01/2020 14:07

Is it genuine muppet or replica?

Thestrangestthing · 11/01/2020 14:11

I don't like fluffy cushions, think they are a bit tacky. Each to their own

maddiemookins16mum · 11/01/2020 14:11

Lovely. My cat would also love them.

VeganCow · 11/01/2020 14:12

@Coco88 can I ask you what 'mess' you need to excuse?

Coco88 · 11/01/2020 14:52

In fairness most of the mess is on the floor and didn’t make it into the pictures 😆

Would this cushion work with them?
