Hi,
I really want to incorporate a look into my house. I want to do something similar to link below on my couch:
But my couch is a section, below is a photo of my couch (I had just finished painting the walls, so no curtains) ;)
Living after painting - Behr Creeks Bend
My questions are:
What size pillows? (I will buy the fabric and have the pillows made)
How many pillows?
What placement can you suggest?
Any suggestions and photos would be great!
Thanks!
Cheryl

Hi Cheryl,
Here are a few sectionals that feature throw pillows:
- 8 http://houseandhome.com/tv/segment/colourful-family-room-makeover
- 5 http://houseandhome.com/tv/segment/modern-masterpiece
- around 5 http://houseandhome.com/tv/segment/youthful-condo-update
- 3 http://houseandhome.com/design/modern-furnishings-sleek-basement
Some of these homes also showcase pillows of different sizes, so you could always mix sizes, too.
I'd say 9 pillows would be your best bet as It seems like quite a bit surface area to cover. If you had variety of sizes, that would look really good. I was going to buy pillows online for my sofas but making them seems so much better, great thinking!
Thanks Harriet,
But our current house has a lot of black/silver that I can't change right now. I want to incorporate a transitional ethnic feel to the space. The insiration is below:

Any advice?
The best pillows you could use would be light for me, creams etc to really contrast nicely with the dark leather, creating a really classic look
