An Accessory for All Seasons
Thursday, December 22nd, 2011
ure, those chairs out in front of the house don’t look so inviting this time of year when they are covered with a blanket of snow. After all, who wants to sit outside and relax when you have to dress in layers and cover yourself from head to toe in order to stay warm? There are plenty of options to consider for your outdoor furniture, so take a minute to consider them before you stash the log furniture away until next spring.
First of all, those chairs are a great backdrop for a multitude of decorating uses. Set a festive wreath or holiday-appropriate sign against the back of the chair. Tuck a cute snowman onto the seat for a few laughs from passersby. If you’re dreaming of beach weather about the same time that Christmas comes along, dress a Santa in shades and swimming trunks and then set him in the chair with an umbrella drink. He may look cold when he’s so scantily clad, but you’ll get a warm fuzzy feeling whenever you are greeted by him.
Cushions and pillows can be a great way to accessorize for the seasons. You may have cushions that you put on the chairs to create a softer seat during the warmer months, but they can be part of your winter holiday decorating scheme as well. The hunter green Rustic Natural Cedar Adirondack Junior Seat Back Cushion in the picture creates quite a beckoning resting spot for summer entertaining. For the Christmas season, pair it with some festive pillows and Santa may just consider having a seat in your outdoor chair to eat his cookies. Trade the pillows out for various holidays, or keep the same pillow forms and use different slipcovers for each winter celebration. Cushions…they aren’t just for warm weather anymore.

Have you ever found that you move into a house and run out of storage space before even half of your boxes are unpacked? Perhaps you have been living in your home for a good long while and you keep finding new places to stash things, maybe even purchasing shelf and cabinet units to hide away your treasures.
