I was a funny little kid, and wanted a porch swing for my birthday when I was like 12. I got one :)
It was hunter green striped, and one of the cushions was a little shredded from a dog incident a lot of years ago. But it worked, we use it all the time. I had wanted to update it for a while...but I'm cheap, and cushions/fabric are expensive.
I'd been watching these cushions at Target all summer, and finally, the stars aligned and they were a pretty great deal...so I got six of them. Just kidding, I got eight, I got two extra, Granny had just gotten Bernie...who eats everything :)
And then I got some flat black spray paint at Lowe's and painted the frame...and the swing where the cushions wouldn't cover.
I tied the chair cushions together to make a faux swing cushion, and there you go. There is something about this pattern, it's not really my old lady style, but I love it. It's more my Cherokee Style ;)
Love it even more with floral pillows from last year :)
I, of course, continued to watch all the sales at Target, and because it was the year of the rug, I ended up with the matching rug for a steal of a deal. Haha, we don't really need a rug, or have an appropriate space for an outdoor rug, but it's cute.
