SELWYN TIMES<br />

Add vibrancy to<br />

your outdoor<br />

furniture<br />

Striped canvas in basic colours was<br />

once the norm for outdoor furniture.<br />

Now, a myriad of patterns and colours are<br />

available from vibrant bold hues to muted<br />

tones, allowing you to carry the theme<br />

and colours indoors out to your deck or<br />

patio.<br />

Outdoor chairs, stools and loungers<br />

can all be given a lift, or selected pieces<br />

upholstered in floral, geometric or<br />

striped designs for contrast. Create your<br />

own look or up-date existing furniture.<br />

There are loads of colours and patterns<br />

as well as plain fabrics to choose from,<br />

all scientifically created to cope with the<br />

harsh effects of the sun.<br />

With these fabrics less affected by the<br />

sun and water resistant, you do not need<br />

to worry if your outdoor furniture is left<br />

out over summer, only needing to tuck<br />

them under cover as autumn and winter<br />

bring damper weather.<br />

Maxine at Classic Curtains & Interiors<br />

carries a range of outdoor fabric samples<br />

and has access to an even larger range so<br />

if you have a particular concept in mind<br />

or have seen a fabric you like then she can<br />

help you source it.<br />

Classic Curtains & Interiors also<br />

offer a re-upholstery service so if you<br />

have a favourite chair that you would<br />

like restored for the indoors or outside<br />

then this is an ideal place to visit. The<br />

woodwork can be fixed up, structural<br />

components sorted and the chair reupholstered<br />

(all at the same time) so it<br />

looks brand new again. They also supply<br />

new chairs from small to large whether it<br />

is an armchair, wing chair or dining chair,<br />

along with footstools, headboards and<br />

sofas; all able to be covered in your choice<br />

of fabric.<br />

Currently, Maxine has three new<br />

chairs in store; one with a storage<br />

box underneath making it ideal for a<br />

bedroom. With an outdoor fabric, this<br />

chair could also be used outdoors.<br />

The sun’s UV rays can also affect your<br />

furnishings<br />

indoors,<br />

especially in<br />

summer when the sun is<br />

stronger and up for longer<br />

– fading curtains, drapes<br />

and furniture. As home<br />

furnishings are a serious<br />

investment, they deserve<br />

protection. Voiles and<br />

sunscreen blinds are a great<br />

way to protect your curtains,<br />

carpet and furniture.<br />

Curtain fabrics will also<br />

have a longer life if they<br />

have a block-out or soft<br />

block lining. These protect<br />

curtains from the sun while<br />

also keeping the heat out<br />

in summer, and the heat in<br />

during cooler weather.<br />

Classic Curtains & Interiors<br />
