When you opt for wicker and rattan – whether you put it inside, or get wicker patio furniture – you are creating a light and airy décor. Thanks to the advances in wicker patio furniture, you can leave yours outside 24/7 – without it rusting, fading, or filling up with mildew, like other types of patio furniture do.

But you also don’t have to physically be outside to incorporate your wicker with the outside world. Whether you’re inside or out, here are 3 ways to give your home a more tropical feel:

1.Get a wicker outdoor sectional

Are you always entertaining a number of guests? Does it always seem like the party winds up outside on the patio?

The next time you need a place for everyone to get comfortable during your summer barbecue or pool party, have them kick back and relax on a wicker outdoor sectional.

Designed with all of the same conveniences as a sectional sofa that you would use inside, a wicker outdoor sectional is specially-treated so that it won’t fall victim to things like sun, rain, wind, and even snow. You can leave it outside year-round, and rest easy knowing that it will always look just as good as the day you bought it!

2.Get a rattan sofa

You don’t necessarily have to be outside to feel like you’re outside. If you want to bring a little piece of the outside world into your home, you can do it by getting a rattan sofa. Since rattan is such a tropical material, it is typically what you find when you’re travelling in the islands or throughout other warm vacation areas. By bringing a rattan sofa into your home, you can take advantage of a comfortable place to sit or nap – while also feeling like you’re on vacation at some glamorous island retreat!

3.Get some wicker sunroom furniture

If you live in a place where you can’t go outside much, you can still create a tropical atmosphere inside your home with wicker sunroom furniture. With it, you can have a comfortable place to curl up with your favorite book, read the morning paper, do the Sunday crossword puzzle, or have your afternoon tea.

And, since you will have all of the conveniences of your sunroom – like air conditioning or heat, depending on what time of year it is – you can enjoy your wicker sunroom furniture anytime you want. That way, that tropical feel with never be too far away – even if it’s really freezing outside!
