Patio Cushions for Wicker Garden Chairs

0

There is some wonderful wicker patio furniture around this year and wicker is such a versatile material that there are styles to suit every garden. You will find patio sets in the most modern shapes available, which are great with a contemporary home and traditional shapes which would look at home in the garden of an old house in the country.

No matter what style of wicker furniture you choose however, it is made more comfortable by the addition of patio cushions. It is not that wicker is the most uncomfortable material to sit on. It is warm to the touch and the material “gives” slightly under pressure but it is characterized by a lot of ridges in the weave and it is the effect of these which is lessened by the addition of cushions.

It is usually best to buy patio cushions with your garden furniture so you can be sure of getting a good fit but it is not impossible to buy them afterwards and there are many sites on the web selling replacement patio cushions for wicker.

You just need to make sure that you measure your furniture properly, so that you get the right set. If they do not fit, these cushions tend to slip and slide about and that in itself is not very comfortable. With wicker, you are generally just looking for a seat cushion, rather than a cushion with a seat and back. If you think the back of your chairs will be uncomfortable without cushioning, buy separate outdoor scatter cushions for the backs of the chairs. You can usually buy these in matching fabrics at the time of purchasing your patio cushions. When measuring for seat cushions, measure the depth of the chair seat and the width at both the front and back edges of the chair, if the chair seat is narrower at the front or back.

If you cannot find ready made cushions, you can try a custom patio cushion company which will be able to create cushions to match your furniture exactly. They are a little more expensive but it will be worth it, to get a good fit.
