Outdoor fabrics have come a long way. Color options were once limited, and the only patterns available were typical stripes or shell motifs. Today, you can find a wide range of colors and patterns that are even stylish enough to use indoors. Most importantly, today's outdoor fabrics are weather-resistant and can stand up to most spills. Now that summer is here, why not add some of these colorful and graphic patterns to your outdoor decorating? — Vanessa from Decor Happy
