If you are looking for a simple way to brighten up your patio or porch a simple set of lounge chair cushions could be the answer.

Over time, the elements can change the look and feel of your lounge cushions leaving them looking old and worn.

The good news is in most cases getting new a cushion is a breeze.

Before you, go shopping however, here are a couple pieces of information you may want to have readily available.

No two lounge chairs are created exactly the same, some are wooden while others are aluminum while some are simple and others are complex. That being said several lounge chair models will share cushion sizes.

The first thing you should do is write down the brand and model of your chair if applicable. This will give you a good starting point for your shopping expedition.

Next, take a few minutes to measure your existing lounge cushions and get the length, width and depth. Notice it says to measure your cushion and not your lounger!

Most of the time the cushion will be slightly smaller than the chair itself so that you do not have overhang. Plus you will want to stay within the same thickness level at least to preserve the comfort of your lounge chair cushions.
