DIY Outdoor Cushion Recovery: A Step-By-Step Guide

By The Foam Factory

The arrival of the holidays are a great time to spruce up your outdoor seating and give it an updated look. But if you’re on a budget, replacing your outdoor cushions can be costly. Instead, why not recover them yourself? With the right fabric and foam, recovering your outdoor cushions can easily be achieved as a fun holiday project. Let’s take a look at how to choose the right materials for the job.

Choosing The Right Fabric

When choosing the right fabric for recovering your outdoor cushions, you want to make sure that it is durable enough to withstand all kinds of weather conditions. You also want something that looks good and complements the design of your outdoor area. Look for fabric made from polyester or even Sunbrella fabrics, which are specifically designed to be able to withstand both sun and rain without fading or deteriorating over time.

Choosing The Right Foam

You will need proper outdoor foam replacement for your cushions in order to ensure they are comfortable and supportive when sitting down on them. Fortunately, purchasing foam for cushion recovery isn’t expensive – you can find foam at most craft stores or online retailers like The Foam Factory. Make sure that the foam is thick enough so that it won’t flatten out over time but still thin enough so that it fits into the cushion cover comfortably.

Recovering your outdoor cushions doesn’t have to break the bank – with some patience and careful planning, you can easily do it yourself with just a few simple supplies! All you need is some good quality fabric and foam along with basic sewing skills and tools, and you’ll have brand new looking cushions in no time!
