Take a seat - the floor cushion search

So this is my first blog. I have had it set up for a while now but by chance I have got some time to kick start this thing! Hope you like it, enjoy it and perhaps it may even be helpful for some of you.

I have been searching for a large floor cushion for my 15month old son to go in our living room. Initially I wanted something that would fit with our room scheme but also have a child like feel. Perhaps a lovely print, maybe an aeroplane or elephant pattern. Our living room has a light contemporary feel, my sofa was one I made at university (when I designed it I had never imagined we would still be sitting on it every evening 10 years later-must buy a proper one soon!) grey and fuchsia pink. Then we have white and black accessories.

Here are some of my findings,




These floor pouffs are from an Australian company called mookah



Lovely linen floor cushions from Couleur Chanvre, perhaps not very child friendly but gorgeous!




Pretty embroidered Mexico cushion from The Sleep Room



This cute printed cushion from a company called Living Funky
