 Just like outdoor lighting, patio furniture can be an extension of your interior living space.  With a mix of high and low costs we tried to keep costs down but also wanted durable pieces.   

​Links to all of our purchases are listed below, install images coming soon!!

Tips for purchasing: I always start by looking for furniture at yard sales, Craig's List, Facebook market, Habitat for Humanity, or local antique shops. Some repair work might be needed but reusing can save you money and is also more sustainable.
​
If you do need to purchase new its best to wait till the end of July or August for the best sales as fall starts to approach. 

The roses we planted become our color inspiration for the outdoor furniture. 
We started with a neutral base for the majority of our large pieces adding our pops of color with items that can easily be changed out.

There is a lot of orange out there, but we didn't want anything to bright or anything like a burnt orange. A soft orange, like a mango has been the hardest color for me to find! If anyone has resources please let me know!

 Products
1. Outdoor sofa - We wanted a sofa that was clean, simple and made of wood. This sofa from Hayneedle fit our space perfectly. 
2. Seat cushions - the cushion color that came with the sofa didn't work with our overall color pallet so we purchased separate cushions from Target.
3. Lanterns - are added for additional soft lighting, IKEA
4. Planters - These IKEA planters are hung with planter hooks from Crate and Barrel, giving us the availability to change out the color of the annuals we plant in them ever year. NOTE: We had to drill holes in the bottom of these for the water to drain. And because of our weather climate you have to remove the soil and store them in the winter or the paint will chip. 
5. Side table - There are a lot of outdoor white tables but this one from Target was clean, simple, and had the best price for our budget, 
6. Bistro Table - we wanted different types of areas to sit. This table is great for a more intimate seating arrangement. - Hayneedle
7. Outdoor Throw Pillows - now for some color! - Target
8. Lanterns - Pink lanterns were purchased to carry the color through the space. The pink lanterns I purchased unfortunately aren't available anymore but Pier 1 as some great modern options. 
9. Side Chairs - My favorite purchase for our backyard are these pink chairs from Anthropologie. 
10. Outdoor curtains - outdoor curtains are added to soft the space and create additional privacy from the neighbors. - Target
11. Mosaic Tile - this will be used for a future project to carry some of the orange color through the space. - Amazon. 
12. Side Table -​ Another of my favorite purchases! Mostly because of the color. Unfortunately also not available anymore but Anthropologie has other great options for side tables.
13. Outdoor Throw Pillows - the easiest way to add more color! - Target
14. Vase - Target 
15. Outdoor plates - Pier 1
