Every morning and evening I go through the palaver of removing and replacing cushions on our bed, every bed in the house has a cushion arrangement!

It always seems a shame to throw them on the floor each evening and then there’s the huffing and puffing when my husband tries to replace them in the morning but gets it hopelessly wrong.

Do you fiddle and faff with cushions or could you not give a flying fig?

Pictures please.

No cushions on the bed in this house too much faff.
I have 2 favourite cushions one is a personalised one of family photos a gift on my last 0 birthday. The other is the one with donkeys on. I’m a big lover of these gentle creatures and was thrilled to come across this one in Dunelm.

It’s not the best photo, but we have 2 pillows and one cushion each. I actually use them while reading, 2 underneath me and one to prop up my book!

DH uses one under his knees and tosses the other on the floor.

I like to change my sofa cushions with the seasons. .
Makes a change and brightens up a brown leather suite.

This cushion works well. Not!!

Aldom Sat 30-Aug-25 16:34:51

No cushions on the bed but I have pillows that lie flat with two pillows propped against them. These two have the cases to match the duvet.
The garden room, off the kitchen has a sofa with cushions. Also the first floor sitting room.

Wash your mouth out.😦
I have a lovely fake orchid in my hall.
It is much admired😳

Oreo Sat 30-Aug-25 16:20:34

Actually Maybee70 you know that RosieandherMaw only loaned you that pooch for a fortnight and you’ve had it for over a year now🤭
She hasn’t noticed it’s gone as she has so many cushions.

Cushions slip off my leather sofa so I have a small bean bag to rest against which me and the dog fight over. I do have quite a collection of cushions, though which I might put on the spare bed which isn’t used.

The size of that dog!😁 Bet it wins the tussle for the bean bag.

I used to be a fan of having lots of cushions but have stopping buying so many now.
Couldn’t resist this one 🙂

That’s a fun one Tilly 😃

"I've seen them roaming the streets with stolen cushions stuffed up their jumpers and down their bottoms"

Body enhancement on the cheap! and to think Katie Price has gone to all the trouble of having umpteen procedures when she could have just attached a couple of cushions about her person.

I think that may have been the Kardashian girls🤷🏼‍♀️
