I think it's rather too narrow...but it would look much better if you pushed it right up the the hearth.

It's floating in mid air right now but it's not large enough to do that.

JaneJeffer · 13/09/2019 10:32

It doesn't go with anything else.

HennyPennyHorror · 13/09/2019 10:36

JaneJEffer what do you mean "go with"? It's neutral...I think it tones in with the curtains and sofa just fine.

JaneJeffer · 13/09/2019 10:37

It looks grey in your photo.

jaggynettle · 13/09/2019 10:42

Maybe push it closer to the fireplace? I like it 😊

ChipmunksInAttic · 13/09/2019 10:43

it is actually teal, sofa is grey.

Get it up against the hearth. Then add another pic.

SuzieQ10 · 13/09/2019 11:13

Don't think it looks right. And PP is right that it doesn't go

RavenLG · 13/09/2019 11:16

I'm struggling to see the teal? the sofa looks brown too.

It doesn't look big enough for the space though. Based on my eyes for the above it doesn't go either.

I think it will look fine once again the hearth

I think you need a bigger rug.
I I'm not sure that the child this but that n might be the photo quality, are your curtains green

rideawhiteswan · 13/09/2019 11:32

Sorry posted too soon.
The rug vuke us nice but it didn't really lift the room.

ChipmunksInAttic · 13/09/2019 11:33

i think the layout of the room makes placing the rug correctly quite difficult. people say you should place two feet of the furniture on the rug, but we have to place the sofa on the shorter side because windows are on the longer side of the rectangle, if you know what i mean...

adding another pic to clarify colors.

It’s expensive for what it is.

ChipmunksInAttic · 13/09/2019 12:18

I don’t think I will be able to find anything cheaper than £100 for the size, but should I return do you think? Any suggestions what to get instead?

Push it up to the hearth. It doesn't work as you have it currently. See what that looks like.

HennyPennyHorror · 13/09/2019 12:31

You don't have to place the sofa where it is. Plenty of people have a sofa backing up to a window. There's no issue with that. One of my sitting rooms is small and our sofa goes there.

HennyPennyHorror · 13/09/2019 12:32

Like this.

RushianDisney · 13/09/2019 12:34

It's far too small in my opinion

ChipmunksInAttic · 13/09/2019 12:36

HennyPennyHorror I did pushed it, pic in the previous post. any better do you think?

OP posts:
HennyPennyHorror · 13/09/2019 12:39

Yes it was better but not touching still! You left a small gap. Why?

Also...what about doing as I suggested and putting the sofa by the window as in the pic I shared?
