Tip

If you don’t want your cushions to fade in the sun and go mouldy, spend the money and buy good-quality outdoor cushions which will see you through many summers. Look for outdoor cushions made in Sunbrella fabric. This solution-dyed fabric is the best (and therefore most expensive) outdoor fabric because it’s fade resistant, 100 percent waterproof, mould and mildew resistant and chlorine safe.
