Whether you’re gearing up for an epic season of summer soirees or simply want to zen out in your yard, it’s about that time to start zhuzhing up your outside spaces. You’ve probably already put in your order for a dining table, umbrella, and loungers, but a good weatherproof rug is an underrated styling essential you could be overlooking. The trick is finding a quality option that’s not too pricey, so we were thrilled to discover a few colorful choices up for grabs on Goodee’s website as a part of its Three Year Anniversary sale.
In celebration of its third birthday, the online marketplace is offering 30 to 40 percent off a selection of responsibly made items now through May 30. Lucky for us, the gem-colored floor covering we have our heart set on falls on the higher end of the discount spectrum, with $160 slashed off the original price of $399. The Swedish-designed Mono outdoor rug hits the mark on everything we look for in this category of product: aesthetic appeal (it comes in an array of jewel-toned shades, from sapphire to emerald), durability, and ease of care (simply spray it down with a hose). It’s also available in a smaller, runner-style version, so even city dwellers with tiny balconies can get in on the fun.
Brita, the brand behind the design, is known for its stylish use of sustainable and high-quality components, and this piece is crafted from 100 percent recycled PET fibers (the material often created from plastics such as water bottles), making it surprisingly soft. Don’t let the cushy feeling fool you, though—this mat is tough enough to stand up to pool-party traffic and barbecue stains all summer long.
