Five Tips for Buying Cushions for Your Wicker Outdoor Furniture

Whether your outdoor living space is a sunroom, deck, patio or backyard area, adding wicker furniture will help you relax. It can do wonders for the body and mind.  If you have such an area and already have furniture but just need  to replace the cushions, we have some suggestions below. Maybe you have a wicker outdoor living room set, tables, chairs or a bench swing. Doesn’t matter, with the proper steps we can make replacement cushions that will enhance and refresh your existing furniture.

Ready to go cushion shopping? Here are five tips to help you select the right cushions for your wicker outdoor furniture.

  • Measure before you buy: Before you do anything else, measure the length and width of your wicker pieces. It’s also important to measure cushion thickness to ensure the highest level of comfort. Simply selecting cushions based on pattern or color can lead to cushions that don’t fit. We can help you with your measuring. If fact, we have a video to illustrate this procedure. Go to our website at kozykingdom.com for more information.
  • Decide on style and design: For patio set cushions we offer two types of cushions.   We also sell deep seating cushions. These cushions usually measure at least 23″ in width and 24″ in depth and are usually 5″ in thickness. We have all the patterns and materials necessary to complement the décor of your outdoor living space.
  • Make sure it’s the right material: We offer a variety of outdoor fabrics that will withstand harsh exposure to outdoor elements. If you want cushions that will look good all year long, then you must get cushions that are resistant to the harmful effects of sun rays and rain.
  • Consider tufted seat cushions: Tufted cushions are less expensive and work well on furniture that is not used on an every day basis. However, if you use your furniture often this type of cushion will tend to flatten over time.
  • Consider foam seat cushions: If  you plan to use your  outdoor  patio furniture often, solid foam patio cushions might be a better option. This type of cushion tends to hold it shape longer when the furniture is used on an everyday basis.
