Uplifting cushion

Home is where the heart is...
Forget tacky gifts this Valentine’s Day and buy lovely home furnishings instead! They’ll last much longer, so are better value for money, and there are some great options in the shops, like this fun heart shaped cushion, from John Lewis.
Aptly named the Sweetheart cushion, the red cushion is decorated with lots of contrasting wool crochet flowers, with sparkly irridescent glass beads in the centre of the flowers.
The heart shaped cushion measures 32cm by 32cm and is £25 from John Lewis.
Child's rocking chair
This lovely wooden white painted rocking chair is the perfect size for children and comes complete with two cushions made from vintage fabrics.
It would be perfect for a child’s bedroom or nursery, or even used in a corner of the lounge, alongside complementary adult furniture.
It won’t break the bank, as it’s half price in the sale at RoseHip.
Move over polka dots, hello flowers
It’s not hard to whip up a long list of wants when browsing Cath Kidston, the queen of shabby chic. We’d love to see this electric flowers cushion on someone’s sofa.
It would make a fab gift and aren’t the delightful pink, blue and yellow colours just pulling you towards spring?
Snap it up for £18 here.
Love birds cushion
It’s not the cheapest cushion on the market, but we rather like this love birds design cushion by Danish company, Ferm Living.
The classic black and white design, featuring the silhouttes of six black birds sitting on branches, is unlikely to date.
The cushion is made from linen and cotton, measures 70cm by 35cm and is filled with down.
It’s available from Stylish Living for £70.
Patchwork cushion
This delicate patchwork cushion features an array of shabby chic style fabrics, in traditional rose prints, gingham and stripes.
The main colours are blue, red/pink and white and it would make a lovely addition to a shabby chic styled room, especially as patchwork is very on trend at the moment.
The cushion measures 50cm square and comes complete with the inner cushion pad (so often they don’t, these days).
The Provence patchwork cushion is on sale from Cape Henley for £20.
Monsoon Rosabel cushion
This delicate pale pink cushion is part of the Rosabel range from Monsoon Home.
The long boudoir cushion, which is perfect for popping on your bed or a special chair as a finishing touch, or for gently resting your head against, features dainty hand embroidery and appliqued designs.
The cushion is filled with feathers and measures 30cm by 55cm. It’s available in the sale from Lytton and Lily, who have it on offer for £20.
