How to use Outdoor Rugs and Cushions to Style your Outdoor Space

Transforming your outdoor space has never been easier thanks to the wide array of outdoor cushions and rugs now on the market. With a few quick steps, you can create the ultimate party space, chill out zone or fairy-tale oasis.

And, because the Just Fabrics summer sales have now started, it doesn’t have to cost you a fortune. In fact, you’ll find outdoor cushions and outdoor rugs with 30% off the usual price - there’s never been a better time to upgrade your outside area!

5 top tips on using outdoor rugs and cushions to enhance your outdoor space:

Use an outdoor rug to anchor your theme:

An outdoor rug can really pull your look together and anchor your theme. It can be the easiest way to add colour and texture and to take your outdoor space in the direction you want. If you’re going for a laid-back Moroccan-style look, the Tangier outdoor rug is ideal or if you’re after more of a party vibe, then the bright and bold Hana Outdoor rug is what you need. At Just Fabrics, there are outdoor cushions to match outdoor rugs in the same design, so you can have a coordinated theme.

Choose cushions to suit your style:

There are over 60 different outdoor cushion designs at Just Fabrics, so there is definitely something to suit your style. Whether it’s the vibrant Woodland Birds outdoor cushion or the fun Tropical fruits outdoor cushion; a classic bright stripe such as the Malaga Rainbow outdoor cushion or a Kilim-style tapestry outdoor cushion, the choice is greater than it ever has been.

 

Play around with texture:

Play around with texture:

Gone are the days of stiff, plastic-coated outdoor cushions and rugs that felt as cosy and as enticing as polystyrene! The improvement in outdoor fabric has meant that outdoor cushions and outdoor rugs can be soft and tactile. Some outdoor cushions can have a soft woven texture, such as the Huxton outdoor cushion, while outdoor rugs, such as the Fes outdoor rug can have a tuft-style effect, creating a warm and welcoming space.

Create a talking point:

Create a talking point:

For too long, outdoor cushions and outdoor rugs have been something of an apology. Lacking in style, design and flair, they were never going to take centre stage in your outdoor space. Today things couldn’t be more different! At Just Fabrics, there are outdoor rugs that resemble pieces of art, koi carp ponds and even a Roman mosaic tiled floor. Never has outdoor garden design been so much fun!

Take it in your own direction:

Take it in your own direction:

Although there’s a huge range of outdoor cushion and rug designs, sometimes you simply want to create your own look. At Just Fabrics, there’s the option to buy outdoor cushion covers which you simply fill with your own inner. Or you could go the whole hog and create an outdoor cushion cover using outdoor fabric. There’s a huge array of outdoor fabric on offer and you could coordinate a whole look, including deckchair slings, bench seatpads, parasols and tablecloths
