Outdoor Furniture Roundup: My Favorites and SO Many Sales!
It’s time to get those patios and porches into shape for springtime, and now is such a good time because almost every place I like to shop is having sales on their outdoor items right now (OKL- 20% off, PB- up to 40% off, CB2- up to 20% off, World Market- up to 20% off plus free shipping, Pier 1- 25% off, WS Home – 20% off).
I rounded up some of my current favorites from all sorts of sources and price points!
Some tips for outdoor furniture purchasing:
- Don’t buy entire matching sets– mix it up! I like mixing iron and zinc finishes with rattan. Or keeping it light by mixing wood and natural wicker with sleeker white accents.
- Invest in good furniture covers- I just got these from Amazon and they are really affordable and work amazing! While outdoor cushions CAN get wet, they can still grow mildew and stain over time from continued wet conditions.
- If you want planters that last through winter seasons as well as summer avoid ceramic as it will crack in cold conditions.

This set has the same vibes as the Janus one I love, and I was feelin’ the pretty pink color (that print pillow reverses to pink and white stripes- squuueeeee) so I made a little vignette for fun :)

I just bought the miles reds set from Ballard. It has drawers for the cushions. I’m obsessed!
I’m looking for a fire table for my deck. I like the look of the concrete ones from RH, but I hear concrete cracks in the winter. Any recs?
Great selection of outdoor furniture. I love your tip to mix it up – how fun! I really want to buy new outdoor furniture, however, I’m stuck on the colour. What colours would you say best match an outdoor setting? I know I don’t want to go for white, I’m too scared of stains that can’t go away. Carolina at Ironmongery Experts.
That Celerie Kimble Crespi table is amazing! I saw it in House Beautiful this month and was smitten immediately!

Thanks so much Erin, always look forward to your style guides, even saving up to shop from them :)
Question: do you find the metal to be better/sturdier long term than the rattan, if permanently outdoors?
(We live in south Florida so it would be used year round, don’t know if that makes a difference.)
Thanks for dedicating your time to these projects, have your new book and can’t wait to dig in!
I do, but that is in the north. In the south you might fare better- although the humidity would probably affect the rattan too if natural. Most of these will be a plastic/resin rattan or wicker which would do great no matter what the weather though!
