Paradise Valley Back Yard Redo

Before and After Photos 

What fun we are having working on this back yard redo for our Paradise Valley Clients. We were able to use their existing Brown Jordan and OW Lee furniture. We had them powder coated to give them a clean, fresh new look. The Veranda still needs some outdoor draperies and accessorizing, that will be the next phase. 

Before and after pool and dining
Around the pool we chose a simple Sunbrella basic fabric and had it made into box cushions and welted it with a darker color Sunbrella. We are still on the hunt for a fun fabric for pillows for the chaise lounges. The dining chairs we chose a beautiful Duralee Stripe and welted it in a Sunbrella canvas in Antique Beige.

The area we chose a fun awning stripe from Sunbrella and chose a fun fabric for the accent pillows.
 Next Step Accessorize: A few great indoor/outdoor rugs from Dash and Albert. More fun pillows made by Arcadia Design and Stitch. Draperies to shade the Veranda and some outdoor candles, votives and potted plants.

A Charming Front Porch 

Our client in Arcadia was due for a front porch make over. He knew he wanted something fun so my partner and I  went shopping at our or our favorite spots, Fabric Depot. Here is the color scheme we found: All Outdoor Fabrics, Tradewinds by Outdura Fabric #3805, Pillows and welt in Sunbrella Canvas, Saphire Blue and Tangerine. On the Tangerine pillows we used an outdoor fringe in Mediterranean Blue. Lastly,we custom designed a lumbar pillow with the stripe and canvas. Hope you enjoy!

"How to keep your Outdoor Fabric looking good"

One of the best ways to keep any outdoor fabrics looking good, and to delay deep or vigorous cleanings, is to properly maintain the fabrics. This can be accomplished by simply brushing off dirt before it becomes embedded in the fabrics, wiping up spills quickly or spot cleaning soon after stains occur. Remember that cushions around the pool are more likely to get oil-based stains due to sunscreens and lotions. Clean oil-based spills right away – the longer it sits, the more difficult it is to remove.


Most stains can be removed with mild, soapy water and a soft bristle brush, but if you do have to deal with an especially difficult stain, there are many ways to tackle it including the use of of a bleach and water solution.
