Can You Use Outdoor Furniture Indoors?

You may be noticing lots of sales and clearances for outdoor furnishings this time of year, or at least you should be.  When I saw this end-of-the-season outdoor furniture sale from Ballard Designs, I knew I had to share these great pieces at great prices that can be used INDOORS just as well as outdoors.

Ballard Designs is one of my favorite online furniture retailers.  Great style, quality, and prices make them a great value overall.  This chair and ottoman is weather- and stain-resistant, which means it’ll hold up great with young children and pets indoors!  And you can’t beat the price:

Ballard Design Ceylon Whitewash Lounge Chair and Ottoman – $369 for both, plus an extra 15% off

 

 

You already know that garden seats or stools are the perfect spot for setting a drink or book beside a favorite reading  chair in any room (right?).

This whitewashed table would look just as great in a dining room than it would on a covered porch, and check out the price!

It’s only $329!

 

 

This 3-piece rattan set would be great in an entry or used as a sofa table, where you can easily pull out those cute benches when you need extra seating.

$349 for the set

 

 

I love this round end table, and it’s a real steal if you ask me.  Maybe you need a pair?

$169 plus an extra 15% off

 

 

A pair of these outdoor pieces could look amazing in your living room.  They call it a baker’s rack, but let’s call it a bookcase!

Hey, there’s nothing in this for me – but quantities are limited, so click on the links and order quickly if you are interested.  And keep your eyes open for end of the season sales like these and start thinking about the possible flexibility of so-called “outdoor” furniture pieces.

    Hi Kristie. You always seem to be able to see outside the box when decorating. Now I can see how awesome those pieces might be in our home!

    I had the same thoughts about almost the exact same whitewashed items you picked!! They don’t look outdoorsy to me at all.

    Good choices, and the whole idea is brilliant! All of us can use a good idea and a good bargain, as well, but I am thinking especially of young families that want nice looking pieces, but can’t afford expensive furniture just yet.

    This post comes just in time — we’re moving, and getting new furniture after replacing all our pet-damaged sets. I love the way outdoor furniture holds up to pets! It was a suggestion you made a few posts back, about decorating with pets in the house (remember suggesting you match furniture color to pet color? Ha!!) Thanks!

      You must have read that in my article in the Tennessean, Suzy! About the pets matching the furniture 😉
