Tired of the same old patio furniture, arranged in the same old boring way? There are some new and exciting trends for 2012 to help spruce up your “fifthroom,” including new fabrics and styles guaranteed to make your usual space a little more exciting.Wicker furniture’s appeal is fast-growing this year, in part due to its all-weather durability. However, real wicker is not known for its longevity in an outdoor environment. Fifthroom offers a great solution to the problem with it synthetic wicker that is sure to fool anyone. Woven with top-of-the-line synthetic wicker fibers, our line of wicker furniture is durable, non-fading and insect-resistant.Aluminum furniture also is fast becoming a popular favorite due to its strength, ability to resist rust and its lightweight feel. This furniture can be “dressed up” with the addition of the right cushions for chairs and centerpieces for tables.Ceiling fans and outdoor lamps also are trending this year, and Fifthroom has a great selection of both. Ceiling fans can be added to any existing outdoor patio, pergola or ramada to help keep you and your guests cool in your outdoor retreat. Resin lamps – which are completely weather-resistant – also are a good choice for any outdoor area, allowing you to enjoy your outdoor space long after the sun has gone down.
