It is official, the 20th of March marked the first day of spring and so now we really do have every reason to start getting excited about warmer weather, longer days and flourishing gardens! In previous articles we have talked about the importance of updating old outdoor furniture, particularly seating. It is quite common knowledge that garden chairs and loungers are not always the most comfortable of options, however, we may have solved this problem for you! Believe it or not there are textiles out there that have been specifically designed to withstand the outdoors, and this is where the scatter cushion comes in.
The development of waterproof textile designs has led to a great increase in the number of different styles and shapes available on the market. It is normal to stick to safer choices when accessorising pieces of furniture, with solid and neutral colours proving to be popular picks! However, here at LionsHome, we want to assure you that being creative and quirky is not at all a bad thing. In fact, it is a celebrated trend to try and incorporate a variety of different patterns and colours to create an eye-catching and alternative look. It is also a great way to bring a bit of your personality to the fore. Another helpful tip, if you are unsure of what route to take, is to use a mixture of neutral and solid coloured cushions alongside a few patterned scatter pillows of your choice. This is a more traditional approach and will also make any chair/bench/swing look like it is straight out of an interior design magazine.
