As I was walking the aisles at JoAnn Fabric's I was amazed at all the selection of outdoor fabrics...
In all colors...
In all designs...
A Whole aisle dedicated just to this kind of fabric!
That got me to thinking...
It's time for a change!
My white iron chair that sits on my front porch is faded (see below). I think I upholstered it back in 2011 and since it's a covered porch, it stays out all year. The fabric has held up really well but it has faded and lost it's charm. Plus back then, JoAnn's did not have much in the way of selection on outdoor fabric.
I selected red for a pop of bright color that coordinated with the brick on the house but...
At the same time, would look great when I decorate out there for Christmas! Yes, I am thinking ahead.
I made a simple accent pillow to go on the setee and it really brightens up the space.
I'll have more to share with you concerning the front porch soon! Bet you can't wait!

ReplyDeleteHi Terry,
ReplyDeleteLOVE your new outdoor fabric; it is perfect on your porch and complements everything around it, especially the beautiful wrought iron chairs! Speaking of chairs, my own black wrought iron ones are getting a makeover this weekend, and I'm also going for a warm, creamy white. Beautiful post, thanks for sharing!
Visiting via Create It Thursday,

That looks so beautiful, I love that fabric and I'm totally with you, I choose red too whenever possible!
ReplyDeleteWow. That looks awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS! I'm rethinking red. I've always loved red but lately have gone to other colors. Yea, I think it's time to re-evaluate the color red. BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteOooooh I love that fabric Terry - your chairs look gorgeous with that pop of red!
ReplyDeleteMarie@The Interior Frugalista
I love that pop of red!! I hate to admit that I'm kinda afraid of color in decorating! Thanks so much for linking up to Freedom Fridays! Pinning!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fabric! You did a great job making these. Stopping by from Say G'Day party.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm Joanne fabrics aye, I wonder if their outdoor fabrics will be on sale soon. I didn't really think about that and I need to cover some of my old cushions for outdoor use. Thanks for that tip.
ReplyDeleteYours are beautiful

I am loving your porch, especially the red print fabric. Red makes me happy, and I think brings something special to any room - no matter what the palette. Thanks for sharing.
