Outdoor patio do-over!

I have just finished a project for a client that turned out so great I had to share it! My delightful client, Miss Leeann, wanted to give her outdoor covered a fresh, new an updated look so we got right to work! She had a number of existing furniture pieces and accessories and as she really wanted to keep them - she got busy with a few (quite a few!) cans of spray paint! We suggested making things feel a bit more sophisticated by using black - at first she was not sure - but now she loves it! There was a brick planter box that was covered with a piece of plywood, painted and turned into a 147" banquette - perfect for seating 6 people! The striped fabric and the tropical floral fabric all come from the Duralee / Suburban Home - Terrazza Collection of Indoor / Outdoor prints. The black looks super and still very colorful! We contrasted EVERYTHING with a super bright welting from the Duralee Pavilion collection. The red leopard print in the chair is also a Duralee Pavilion piece. The green chenille on the back of the pillows as well as the ottoman is from Kravel Soliel. Then we added some red outdoor drapes, lots of great pots and plants, a fun outdoor zebra rug and TA DA! It looks fantastic and I know she will use it all summer and well into the fall season! YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!!!! Thanks Leeann for letting me talk you into all the black - I LOVE it!
