Read on for our favourite cushion design ideas and start designing your Personalised Photo Cushion today.
1) Design A Cushion That Lasts
A cushion can be for life, not just for Christmas... but why not design your cushion for both? With our Premium Photo Cushions, you can do just that with our double-sided printing. Get creative with your own cushion design that’s perfect to display at Christmas on one side and add a cute design to the other side that matches your home interior so you can use it all year round. Browse through our wide range of background patterns and design templates or upload your own cushion pattern. Whether you’re looking for an animal print cushion, a particular pattern, or want to follow a theme that matches your home interior, you can add any cushion design to the reverse. Once the Christmas décor has gone back into hiding, simply flip your cushions around to make your stylish home accessories last the whole year.
2) Create an Aesthetic Cushion Set
Browse through our abundance of stylish Clipart, including this cute and simple snowflake, to create your own aesthetic cushion set for your sofa. Pick out four or five complementary colours to use across all your cushion designs, keeping your cushions harmonious and coordinated when displayed in your home. Your cushion design doesn’t need to stand out from the crowd – even using neutral colours with a hint of green as seen in our example can stylishly complement your home décor and festive decorations.
We recommend choosing two or three of your favourite festive icons from the selection of Clipart and reusing them across a variety of Premium Photo Cushion sizes, from a range of different sized square cushions to landscape rectangle styles for a stunning cushion display.
3) Bring Personality to Your Cushion Design
In addition to designing your own cushion cover patterns using Clipart, you can also add your own photos too. Photos taken during winter in snowy scenery will work really well for these festive cushions, as well as any memories you’ve captured from past Christmas celebrations with loved ones.
Top tip: If you’re designing a set of personalised cushions, remember to select photos that are similar or work well together, such as a series of photos taken in the snow. This will help you to design a beautiful cushion collection you’ll love to display in the home.
You can add more personality to your personalised photo cushions with the use of our handy Frames, giving you the creative freedom to add additional design elements such as festive sayings, Christmas lyrics or any other text of your choice that will complement your Christmas décor.
4) The Perfect Gift for Loved Ones
Treat your loved ones to a truly unique gift this Christmas with their very own Premium Heart Cushion, designed by you. Let the special people in your life know how much you love them with this thoughtful heart design cushion. Whether you choose to design with a favourite photo of you together, a favourite place that means a lot to them, or create your own stylish design, they are sure to love this heart-warming gift all year round.
Top tip: A personalised heart cushion is the perfect gift for those who live far away as it makes a great substitute for a hug!
