New Additions In Outdoor Furniture

Our outdoor department is thriving so we wanted to add a new line called the Plaza Collection that features the iconic lifestyle of the 50's era when work and leisure seemed balanced. The lines of the Plaza Collection recall the classic style and balance of the 50's. Available in premium polymer and pressure treated pine with 29 color options to choose from. The below photo is shown in apple green, such a bright and friendly color.

We have a large selection of outdoor rugs & pillows to compliment your outdoor furniture. A few we thought would be fun accents with the apple green color are:

Outdoor Rugs

Defining Your Space with an Outdoor Rug

House by the Shore knows how important an outdoor space can be to relaxation, entertaining, and life at the beach. Your outdoor living space should be defined and as comfortable as your indoor living spaces.

An outdoor rug can help you define your seating area, add comfort to a space for small children to
play, or add a pop of color. When choosing a rug for your patio, porch, or outdoor living space there are a few key things you should keep in mind:

A general rule of thumb for size is to choose a rug two feet less than the amount of space that you want to cover.  So for example, if your patio is 10’ x 12’ then you want to select an 8’ x 10’ rug.

Weather protected rugs or rugs that are treated tend to do better for outdoor spaces. Just because it says it’s an outdoor rug doesn’t mean that it’s going to last through horrible weather, it just means it has better durability than indoor rugs. These rugs usually also have a non-slip mat under the rug that is also beneficial outside.

Materials are very important when buying an outdoor rug. A rug that combines both natural and synthetic woven materials will usually have the highest durability. Natural materials hold up better against the weather than other materials but synthetic materials are cheaper and come in more styles.


Style is important when choosing a rug for an outdoor space because it can tie everything together. When you choose your outdoor rug, don’t worry about lasting style as much as you would with your furniture. No matter its durability, the rug most likely will only last a season or two so choose the one you love in your style and budget range and have some fun!
