You can\u2019t afford to buy a new one so what do you do? At Meadows &amp; Byrne we love a good interior design project and there\u2019s nothing like bringing an old piece of furniture back to life. With our help you can transform your old couch into something new and wonderful that won\u2019t break the bank.<\/p>\n<h3>A new cushion can work wonders<\/h3>\n<p>Would you believe that with a couple of new cushions and a beautiful throw you can have what looks like a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/sofas\/\" target=\"_blank\">brand new sofa<\/a>? It\u2019s true! With our advice we can guarantee that no one will know it\u2019s the same old sofa that you\u2019ve always had. We have all you need under one roof to make this magical transformation, from boring old futon to an amazing Pinterest-worthy sofa.<\/p>\n<p>When buying cushions think patterns. A plain sofa can be up-graded very quickly by adding in some bold prints. The prints on the cushions don\u2019t have to match, be brave with them and find a few different patterns that work well together. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/cushions-and-throws\/\" target=\"_blank\">cushions<\/a> can be all different shapes and sizes too, the more variety the better in this case.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1996\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1996\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Ziggy-Morning-Mist.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1996\" src=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Ziggy-Morning-Mist-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Ziggy Cushion \u2013 Morning Mist \u20ac44.95\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Ziggy-Morning-Mist-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Ziggy-Morning-Mist-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Ziggy-Morning-Mist-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1996\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/homeware\/ziggy-cushion-morning-mist\/\">Ziggy Cushion \u2013 Morning Mist \u20ac44.95<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1994\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1994\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Bias-Twill-Aspen-Gold.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1994\" src=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Bias-Twill-Aspen-Gold-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"BBias Twill Cushion - Aspen Gold \u20ac39.95\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Bias-Twill-Aspen-Gold-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Bias-Twill-Aspen-Gold-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Bias-Twill-Aspen-Gold-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1994\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/homeware\/bias-twill-cushion-aspen-gold\/\">Bias Twill Cushion &#8211; Aspen Gold \u20ac39.95<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1995\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1995\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Slate-Weave.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1995\" src=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Slate-Weave-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"SLATE WEAVE CUSHION \u20ac44.95\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Slate-Weave-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Slate-Weave-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Slate-Weave-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1995\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meadowsandbyrne.com\/homeware\/slate-weave-cushion\/\">SLATE WEAVE CUSHION \u20ac44.95<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Create a cosy look and feel to your sofa and add an extra element of comfort by adding in chunky knits.
