Top 3 Outdoor Cushions Essentials for a Cozy Backyard, Patio, or Balcony
Comfortable Hammock with Wool Cushion
A hammock is one of the simplest ways to bring premium garden comfort to your outdoor space. Add a hammock pad or any breathable hammock pillow, and it instantly becomes the hammock you want to spend the rest of your life in. Wool-filled outdoor cushions provide just the right support for both reading and afternoon napping and help regulate temperature, making them perfect for sunny afternoons or breezy nights.
The basics: Patio Cushions, Bean Bags, and Ottomans
Dreaming of a cozy outdoor seating area? You don’t need bulky furniture. Instead, bet on soft, flexible options like floor cushions, bean bags, and ottomans that you can also easily move back inside, once the outdoor season ends.
If you want to create a relaxed atmosphere, consider using wool-filled floor cushions, outdoor seat cushions, or any oversized patio cushion. Put them directly on the floor and combine them with poufs, bean bags, or ottomans. Wool filled cushions and poufs stay comfortable even on the hottest days, since wool is highly breathable and moisture wicking. Depending on their design, wool poufs can also serve as side tables for your gatherings with friends. Whether you’re hosting a garden soiree or enjoying quiet moments alone, cozy and cool furniture is an essential part of your setup.
Papasan Chair: The Garden Furniture Must-Have
Round and deep, the Papasan chair has long been a top choice for people looking to sink into comfort. If you want a next level experience, top your Papasan frame with a custom wool-filled Papasan chair cushion. You will not only get the perfect body support, but wool will cool you off during the hot summer days and keep you warm once the evening chills set in.
The Papasan chair timeless design is a good fit for any backyard, balcony, or patio.
Why Bet on Wool Filling for Your Outdoor Cushions
Can wool be comfortable in hot weather? Does it really keep you cool in the summer? These two are among the common questions and concerns when it comes to wool and hot weather. We have the answers. Wool is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking. Yes, it is considered to be the perfect fiber for any season.
There’s nothing more agonizing than sitting on a sweaty, sticky cushion in a midsummer day. We’ve all been there. Wool-filled outdoor cushions help your body regulate its temperature, helping wick away moisture and keep you dry. Unlike synthetic cushions and pads that torture your body in the summer heat, wool cushions keep you cool and dry. Wool promotes airflow, eliminating that damp and clammy feeling you hate.
Your Garden, Your Comfort
Whether you’re reading, scrolling, napping, or simply cloud-gazing, these simple garden furniture upgrades will help you relax and enjoy the season better.
And don’t we all need a bit of star gazing time to feel better? “Experiencing awe regularly is deeply beneficial for our mental wellbeing because it helps us to feel connected to something bigger than ourselves,” says Mark Westmoquette, an astrophysicist and yoga and meditation teacher who runs mindful stargazing retreats across the UK and Europe. “As we look up at the night sky and become aware of our place within it, that sense of wonder and awe can really shift our perspective around who and what we are.” This beautiful insight comes from the BBC article “Could a star-bathing retreat help calm your frazzled mind?“.
It’s a fact, stargazing or star-bathing can serve as a window to mental wellness. Similarly, sun soaking acts as a natural mood booster. And if you’re going to enjoy any of these activities this season, do it right, in the comfort of your cozy wool outdoor cushions.
