How to do outdoor cushions - my top tips!

Image via Pinterest

Outdoor cushions will add an injection of personality into your outdoor space. Here are my top tips for creating a dreamy outdoor space that is also functional and easy to maintain:

- Make sure you continue your interior style into your outdoor spaces by using similar or complimentary colours, shades and textures. Flow is important.

- Quality and durability is super important for longevity as your cushions will be in the elements. 

- Ease of cleaning is so important as you don't want to have to be thinking about them whenever it's raining, outdoor cushions are made for outside remember! You can machine wash certain brands when they get a little dirty, however some will clean up perfectly with a spray of the hose. 

Scroll to the bottom for my favourite outdoor cushions available now - and get outside and start decorating!

Lumiere’s Art & Co has launched a new collection that is just divine. Named 'Elanora' it means place beside the sea and it was shot on location in at their new Lumiere Art + Co. House on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria.

The house is a unique property that is furnished and styled completely with Lumiere's Emma Cleine's textiles and art, all designed and made by her. Incredibly you can now rent this beautiful property and as of 2017 Emma will be offering workshops from here too... time to get your creative juices flowing! 

“I made and designed every artwork and textile in this home for this home. I mostly loved designing the girls room with the bunk bed. The double sided quilts and artwork I made for this room with strong line and painterly florals mark a new direction for Lumiere, however, its still so true to my style and aesthetic,” said Emma.

The collection ranges from art to textiles and is as colourful, intricate and beautiful as always.
