You may be having mismatched furniture where the sofa chairs and the sofa do not match. However, matching the sofa chair to the rest of the furniture and to the décor does not mean exact matching. You can match the sofa chairs with the room by coordinating colors of the fabrics with those of other furnishings and of the décor. Below are ways in which you can match the furnishings.
If two sofa chairs are matching
If there are two matching sofa chairs in the room and you want to match them with the rest of the room, start by looking for similarities. This is in terms of colors or patterns on the chairs. For instance, if the chairs are in blue and white striped fabrics and the couch has solid beige color, place blue and white pillows on the couch. The pillows can have different stripes or patterns as long as the colors are similar to the chairs colors. Place a throw in blue and white stripes at the back of the couch. You may also have sofa cushions in blue and white striped fabric to match that of the chairs. For a sofa with removable cushions, cover only the middle cushion with the striped fabric. Improve the matching by placing a throw pillow in beige at the sofa chairs.
Sofa chairs that are not matched
If your room has sofa chairs that do not match, use color to tie them. If the chairs have similar colors but different patterns, you can use solid colored pillows in one of the colors and place them on the chairs. If the sofa chairs do not match completely, place a pillow on the chair that has color from the other chair to tie the chairs using colors. In addition, place pillows matching the sofa chair on the sofa in order to create cohesion.
Paint the furniture
You can match the furniture by painting them in the same colors. For instance, you can paint legs of the couches, chairs and tables in matching colors such as dark brown. This will make them seem to be from the same design. Protect the paint using clear sealer. You may also use fabric paints to match the furniture. Stamp or stencil fabric paints on solid fabric colors on unmatched furniture to connect them. You can also embroider or stamp the throw pillows with a design on the chairs on from somewhere else in the room to create cohesiveness.
Using wall art to match the colors
You may also use wall art to bring color cohesiveness in the room. This can be done by taking a pattern from the couch, chairs or a rug and repeating it on the framed piece of wall art. If you can get fabric matching that of the chairs, you can use it for wall panel art. This is by wrapping it around a cardboard scrap or an artist canvas that is blank and taping or stapling it at the back. The wall panel fabric matches with the chairs.
