This is the final look of our new little piece of heaven. I know a lot of people turn their nose up when it comes to shopping furniture at the big blue and yellow stores but "Yay for the Swedes!" The reclining chair are brilliant. They fold flat, can be used as dining chairs and perfect for lounging.
This outdoor graphic rug had been stowed away in a closet for a couple of years, forgotten. I'm glad I remembered about it. We decided to get the matching foot stools this past weekend and it was just the missing element to make for a perfect place to relax this summer and into the fall.
Last but not least I took the time to add some ties to the cushions. Call it OCD but I prefer when seat cushions stay put.
Vast improvement over the previous situation right ? |
Sweet, sweet!! A great spot for some relaxation!!
