Faded cushion covers, stains from the last barbecue, and general wear and tear can leave your once-gorgeous furniture looking tired.
However, a simple and economical solution is within our reach.
And, surprisingly, it is available on Shein.
Green-fingered Brits took to Facebook to scream about the Chinese retailer’s outdoor sofa covers.
It comes after social media user Lucie Crook went to Gardening with an official budget group looking for advice on bringing a worn-out wicker sofa to life.
“I received some patio furniture that I want to give new life to,” she wrote.
“I’m looking for advice on an inexpensive option to separate the cushions.”
The white cushions on her new set were covered in dark marks that even the strongest wash cycle couldn’t get rid of.
The Brits were quick to let Lucie know that Shein’s outdoor sofa cushion covers were the perfect solution.
“Shein sells capes,” reported Emma Harry Dearlove.
“They are cheap and fabulous.”
“Go ahead, Shein and buy the replacement covers,” echoed Kathleen Murphy Howard.
“They are amazing.”
Outdoor cushion covers for a range of furniture sizes and shapes cost from £3 at Shein.
