Sofa Revamp

Sam and I would like a new corner sofa for our new house - but at the moment that is on hold. So as a cheap, temporary option I have dyed the sofa covers brown so that they match the room better than the navy that they originally were.
It was a long process - even using the washing machine, but I am pleased with the results and the sofas will be fine now until we buy a new one. The wall looks very orange in this picture - it is actually red but the sun was setting when I took the picture and it has altered the colour.

the covers look very good...much better finish than i remember from dye years back....very cosy looking now and toning cos the blue was a bit of a clash
