Outdoor Living--Is Rain bad for Upholstery?

I know that a recent post showed my weakness to this season as I have been held low by my allergies. There is nothing I enjoy more though than enjoying great weather in my yard. I enjoy working in my yard (even more watching my husband work) and enjoying the haven I hope to create. The new house is a blank canvas and I can't wait to make it fantastic.

I wish the weather was better you know, 100+ days of sunny weather (I so wish we had a streak like Arizona seems to pull off every year). It is the weather that is killing me. Today is 60 (not bad) but ever looming gray skies with the threat of major storms. I would love to be able to put an "outdoor living room" in my back yard like this one, but I don't know if it would hold up to our Midwestern storms. Rain seems to be a bad thing for upholstery.

If only we had weather like Arizona, I could have the outdoor furniture of my dreams, but I fear I am left with my plastic that can stand up to it all. Oh well. Back to my dreaming.

  2. Here in Florida we definitely have our share of sunny weather, but during the rainy season outdoor furniture isn't very practical unless you have a screened-in lanai or patio. But there's nothing wrong with dreamin', is there? I'm following you from MBC.
