If you're like me, you love a great fabric...and better yet - a great outdoor fabric! I thought I would share some images from my favorite outdoor fabric line,
Sunbrella! The company offers a wide range of fantastic patterns and colors for all outdoor applications such as pillows, cushions, draperies, umbrellas and hammocks. The list goes on and on. Of course, you can use them indoors as well, but there is no doubt they will add serious pizazz to your favorite outdoor hangout.
As a side note, I used one of the neutral, solid patterns from Sunbrella for exterior draperies at our front entry (see first photo). They have held up beautifully in the hot, humid and often times rainy MS weather with no fading or staining. I couldnt ask for anything more!
What Sunbrella fabrics have you used, if any? What are your favorites? Do you prefer bright, bold patterns or soft neutrals?

Your entry looks gorgeous! So romantic and welcoming! Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove your entry, I put a curtain on my front porch this year and I love it. I have wanted to do it for the longest time and this year I bit the bullet and went for it. I can not imagine my porch without it now. I love sunbrella fabric. I had two black cushions with white piping made for the porch and they really turned out great. here is the post I did on my porch if you want to see some black and white stripes, Happy Thursday,Kathysue

I love sunbrella fabric! I have been toying with the idea of curtains for my back patio! I am glad to hear that yours have held up well! That has been my biggest concern...the Texas sun and heat can be brutal to fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI love color but would like black and white like Kathysue used in her above mentioned project!
Great post!
Enjoy!

Love sunbrella, too! I love it mostly inside...wipes so easily. Great post! Julie
ReplyDeletewhat the heck!? That is SO CUTE. is that really your front door!??!
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting outdoor curtains on my back patio for a while now. Been worried about our Phoenix sun but now I'm a little closer to biting the bullet. I'm thinking John Deere yellow!
ReplyDeletePlease share how you've hung them. It looks so pretty!
ReplyDeleteCan I move into your house? It looks amazing- out of one of the decor mags. Amazing taste girl!

Cute blog! That entry looks amazing.
ReplyDeletePretty! Blue/brown combos are my favorites right now :)
ReplyDeleteJust look at how far treated fabrics have come! Decorating outside has become so much more fun because of all the great patterns available. Your porch drapes are wonderful and bring such an inviting feel to your entry.
ReplyDeleteVery cool!
Oh I love Sunbrella fabrics. They wear so well. That's what we have on our outdoor chaise lounge. I adore your entry...it's gorgeous!

I love your entry!!!!! It makes such a statement, and is so elegant and creative. What an interesting and practical idea all at once.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the sweet comments! I love hearing them! To answer a question...I have hung the curtains at my entry with a curved iron rod that was custom made for the opening. Then, I found iron tie-backs to match!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for using my Germaine chair with Sunbrella pattern Poka. We are proud to say it won "Best of Show" at the High Point Furniture Market last year. Love your blog.
