Sorry I have to say Nay as well.If you have pillows in your house ..anywheres you can get some great faux fur etc covers at Fabricville. :)

Hey, did anyone see turning old knit sweaters into pillows from the new Chris & Steven show. Love it !

He simply just cut the arms off and cut away the neck off the sweater to get a nice square piece of the sweater body and then transformed an existing old tired pillow into a smashing pillow.

I like the idea of recycling/reusing.

Anyone handy with knitting needles could knit a nice little pillow covers jackets.

& keep your eye open at fabric stores for the faux fabric on sale. You can even do a no sew project with some double edged tape. Simple DIY crafts.

I agree...IMO they are too delicate, and not the right colour, for your leather sofa. How about some larger suede, faux fur or knit/sweater pillows....which would add more texture...

nice pillows but not for your sofa.

You've probably already heard enough, but I would add my 2 cents about a "stronger" texture and like the idea of a faux fur throw to warm things up.

I agree with the others, take them back. A throw in a faux fur would give a warmer, accessorized look to the sofa.

Nay.

Sorry. Texture/fabric is not right. Thinking of a stronger fabric. Suede or a heavy texture wool.

If you are going to use the pillows I would have two of the longer pillows and put them along the length of the arms.

IMO "nay"

I really don't think that the sofa needs pillows just for looks. And those don't seem too comfy to actually use. Aren't they slipping off the leather??
