Need lots of cushions that aren't too £££

Hi, we are getting a day bed (hemnes from Ikea) and will need lots of cushions to make it comfy as a sofa when not folded out as a bed. Need a mix of neutral colours/textures and I'm v partial to faux fur but don't want to spend a fortune. Seen any bargains? I'll need to buy LOADS.

that's funny because we assembled the hemnes daybed at the weekend and then bought throws and cushions to go with it! We got them from The Range.
(Ds had been arranging them)

B&M are good for cushions and they have loads of choice.

2014newme · 17/10/2017 08:12

John lewis are good

Ilovecakeallday · 17/10/2017 08:12

Second the range.

dementedpixie · 17/10/2017 08:12

Matalan and wilko also had cushion ranges

flissfloss65 · 17/10/2017 08:13

Dunelm has a great selection.

dementedpixie · 17/10/2017 08:14

We got throws as the mattresses would be bare otherwise. We put a mattress protector on first then the throws and then the cushions although ds has been snuggling up in the bigger throw we got

Also I would not go for the velour type ones as pictured I would go for a more structured cushion that holds its shape as day beds can easily end up looking like dogs bed. I'd also go for contemporary colours for a sophisticated look.

dementedpixie · 17/10/2017 08:21

Are you saying mine looks crap?

peppykoala · 17/10/2017 08:38

Matalan, Dunelm, TK Maxx/Homesense

stayfit · 17/10/2017 08:40

Wayfair online, really good designs and great quality. Homesense were ok too

Bluesheep8 · 17/10/2017 11:06

Thanks for all the suggestions and the pic looks great btw, our day bed is in white and have already got lots of throws, can't wait for delivery so I can look for a zillion cushions now

Primark has big cotton velvet cushions in a range of contemporary colours - silver, teal, plum, cream etc. Very good value.

2014newme · 18/10/2017 09:24

Hmmm...

happygardening · 18/10/2017 10:23

eBay? I’ve just bought some cushions for my window seat, all were sold recently in JL I paid £5 max for them, feather cushions can also be bought of EBay very cheaply. Also lots of people sell cushion covers they’ve made from off cuts on eBay again reasonable prices.

LightastheBreeze · 19/10/2017 18:29

Next clearance usually have some

spiney · 19/10/2017 18:31

H & M do GREAT cushions.

BriocheBriocheBrioche · 19/10/2017 18:33

H&M home so some amazing cushions. Tbe quality is great for the price too.

Tentomidnight · 19/10/2017 18:34

H&M Home.

SummerRoberts · 19/10/2017 18:34

Primark have some really cheap but lovely looking big and medium velvet ones in loads of different colours. Think they’re around £5 each. Check out B&M and the range too. Or Ikea if you’re near. I love H&M cushions but they sell the covers and cushions separately so you do end up spending more.

Bluesheep8 · 20/10/2017 08:03

Great suggestions everyone, thank you. I will post a pic when it's delivered, all cushioned - up !

Oooh please do! I love a home/interiors pic! Nosy.

Alabasterangel6 · 20/10/2017 13:53

We have that daybed and it's loaded with cushions.

Tip: to cover the mattresses without throws (which in own experience scrumple up the minute anyone sits on them) I use a brushed cotton single fitted sheet. Doesn't look like a cotton sheet and stays perfect.

Alabasterangel6 · 20/10/2017 13:59

Here you are. There is a quilt on at the moment as we've got a guest sleeping there this weekend. But usually just a brushed cotton sheet.

Another saying H&M. The inner bit of the cushion is much better quality than the ones we have from John Lewis and the cushion covers wash really well.
