Cushions

6 years ago

I ordered a patio set from you less than a year ago and all the cushions have faded differently and look horrible. What can I do? So many cushions and pillows. The company was Kordiel ? Please advise. Thank u

Tami,

Unfortunately, once the sun had faded fabrics, there is nothing you can really do. Most outdoor fabrics are sunbrella fabrics and while they are weather and fade resistant the sun is always stronger than them and will fade.

The rate of fading depends on where you are located, how hot/humid it is, how long your furniture is in direct sunlight, and color of material.

I always suggest having covers for furniture that is exposed to direct sunlight for many hours, especially for client's in the south where the sun is brutal. I also suggest putting up pillows and cushions in extreme weather situations to help keep the longevity.

If you want to take a chance, they make outdoor fabric paint and you can try and match close to the color you have and paint them. There are many youtube videos.

I really like the idea of G plan round table. I got one myself a few years ago, but paired it with ikea's take on Ghost chair for a more modern look http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/chairs-stools-benches/chairs/tobias-chair-transparent-chrome-plated-art-20115038/ Also I love mid century style, so keep buying Nordlux lamps, like Nordlux Gu10 Bali Metal Dimmable Touch Control Plug In Wall Light, White https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005OJRJ9W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_iLRBybX82QS5T
