easiest deck update

This was our sad deck, faded pillows, broken glass from a storm - before an infusion of pillows! I've always made new ones every year, we never bring them in so by the end of the season, well...you see. This year I decided to use outdoor fabric (who would have thought!).
                                           
Fabric on sale at Hancock's and some old pillows used as forms.
Looking better, but yikes it needs something to break up all that pattern.
  This is it, solid with a fun detail.
You can have one of your own, check out Emily's easy tutorial,
 the flower detail will take you no time!
If you really want to be impressed check out her yard before and after here!
quiet peaceful mornings, coffee, paper, birds singing

I love the flower pillow! I think that would be fun for a package decoration too! Thanks for the idea!

I love the pop of green and the flower detail. What a pretty deck. Also love your idea of using old pillow forms to save money. Great ideas! Thanks for sharing.
