I wanted some additional cushions to match my daughter\’s bedroom colour scheme, to cosy it up ready for her coming home to spend Christmas with us.

I chose to order them from The Cushion House because they are one of the few uk businesses that sell and deliver cushion covers and other home furnishings entirely plastic free!

Inside the biodegradable external packaging my covers were carefully wrapped in natural tissue paper and supported with a card board insert. These will be saved to reuse and ultimately head into my home compost bin.

Its more than that though. Stephanie has built this business from scratch. I have known Stephanie for many years, and can vouch for her passion for what she does and her attention to detail.

I had the pleasure earlier this year to be invited to visit, and see her centre of operations for myself.

Sustainability and quality is at the heart of this enterprise. Cushion House fabrics have been carefully and personally chosen by Stephanie herself to ensure they meet her high standards. She specifically selects materials made from natural fibres that are, designed, printed or woven in Britain.

Stephanie then stitches them by hand into something wonderful for the home, like the cushion covers I ordered, and now adorn my daughter’s room.
