Do you think we could modernize this outdoor wicker furniture that seems to evoke memories of days gone by? Well, let’s give it a try. We’ll start with cushions sparsely scattered with medium to large flowers. Of course we want wicker painted white, and then we’ll add a big fern plant or some zebra grass right behind chair in corner. Hmmm, our tables need glass tops. How are we doing? Yes, it is looking good, eh?

Wicker is extremely versatile. Regardless of theme your outdoor furniture needs to convey, wicker can fit bill. Make a few changes of cushions or color, and presto! You’ve got what you’re looking for.
