Don't forget the patio!!!!  In the summer months adding a few pillows and side panels of outdoor fabric brightens up your patio.  It is like having another room to use in your house.  Sunbrella is your very best choice.  I attended a seminar on outdoor fabric and how they explained the difference between sunbrella outdoor fabric and inexpensive outdoor fabric was sunbrella was like a carrot.  It is the same color on the inside as it is on the outside.  Pigments are added during the production of the fabric that gives color throughout that won't wash or fade away.  Sunbrella fabrics stay strong and vibrant even from the sun and resist fading.  Ordinary outdoor fabrics are like a radish, it looks great on the outside because the yarn is dyed only to the outside surface of the fabric therefore it will wash out and fade over time. Yes sunbrella is more expensive but it also will last longer.  I hate the saying you get what you pay for but in this case it is true.
