Reupholster leather sofa seat cushions in different fabric?
Comments (9)Thank you both for the support. The sofa I saw in the store was a similar leather to the one you linked to, postum. The cushions were a very dark paisley and I thought it look quite nice. I know I'm making this old sofa sound awful but I'm sitting here looking at it now and it's not that bad. I have a throw over it that covers the cracks in the seat cushions and throw pillows at each end. I'm just thinking that if I get a good coordinating fabric on the cushions it would eliminate the need for the throw that I'm constantly readjusting after DH has his nap....See Moreleather sofa/sectional vs fabric
Comments (32)Is there a blue throw there? can work -- maybe this type? to me you could buy leather sofa, or not. Would seem more interesting maybe, not leather. This has casual vibe, neutral nice on 'sofa wall'? https://www.houzz.com/products/calm-beauty-canvas-wall-art-30x40-prvw-vr~75578583 https://www.houzz.com/products/cowhide-pillow-12x20-navy-prvw-vr~133951228...See MorePic of large sofa sectional that has leather mixed with fabric pieces
Comments (1)In my head this would just look weird and I have no idea why you would mix leather , which lasts a really long time, with something that will wear out Just get a good leather sofa and add a couple of pillows for texture....See MoreCan black leather and brown fabric looks good on a sofa
Comments (1)If you post photos of your options, it would help. Envisioning what you mean by mixing fabric and leather, as long as both are quality materials, for sure…love brown/black....See More
