When it comes to making a comfortable home, the chaise lounge is the ultimate in relaxation furniture. One of the best ways to ensure that your chaise offers the kind of peace and enjoyment you desire is to give it the perfect custom-made cushions. With professional help from Cush Living, you can easily create a gorgeous piece with top-level performance at an affordable price.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT CHAISE CUSHIONS
Deciding on the right cushions for your chaise involves more than just selecting a color. When thinking about a custom design, there are a number of things you’ll want to think about carefully before you make your final choice. The following are just a few things you might want to consider while exploring your options.
THE ATMOSPHERE YOU WANT TO CREATE IN THE SPACE
What sort of look and feel would you like to create in the place(s) your chaise will be used? Do you envision a bright, high-energy space with vibrant colors, or a chic, classy area with versatile neutrals and classic patterns? Is there a theme you’d like to achieve?
THE ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS THE CHAISE WILL BE EXPOSED TO
Will your chaise lounge chair need outdoor or indoor cushions (or both)? Do you have young children or pets who might pose an extra risk of staining or damage? Will the chaise need to resist rain and sun exposure? Whatever the case, make sure you choose cushions with the right features and durability for your needs.
THE TEXTURE OF THE FABRIC
What do you want your chaise to feel like? Other factors like durability and style may shrink your list of fabric options, but texture is still an important consideration for comfort’s sake. Unlike some stiff, scratchy cushions, even the outdoor performance fabrics we use are engineered to be soft and comfortable.
YOUR BUDGET
As with anything you buy for your home, it’s important to have an appropriate budget in mind. Fortunately, Cush Living offers a range of differently priced options from a wide variety of material manufacturers. Many of the fabric brands we use offer affordable luxury collections for an expensive look that won’t actually break the bank.
THE OVERALL STYLE OF YOUR HOME
How important is it to you to match your chaise to the rest of your furniture? If you have a particular style that you use throughout your home, consider you may want your chaise cushions to reflect that same overall aesthetic.
For a versatile look that can change along with the rest of your home, you might choose a neutral design that can be decorated with different accents. For example, a simple black, white, or gray design can be given a trendy look or pop of color with a set of throw pillows.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
In addition to considering color and style, think about how and where your chaise will be used. If it will be used outdoors, it’s important to select a fabric that can stand up to the elements. Our custom outdoor cushions are made with high-quality performance fabrics from brands like Maria Flora, Perennials, Schumacher and Sunbrella.
Different fill materials can be used to create a softer or firmer cushion. Depending on what kind of feel you prefer, our design team can recommend appropriate fill materials. If your chaise cushions will be used outdoors, you should also choose a fill material that allows water to drain through easily.
The average order for residential custom chaise cushions takes approximately 6-8 weeks (depending on the availability of fabrics). Larger commercial orders can take longer to fulfill, with a turnaround of about 12-16 weeks.
No matter what kind of chaise cushions you order, we always do our best to be as efficient as possible. All of our cushions are manufactured to order and we will never cut corners or sacrifice quality.
All Cush Living custom cushions are made with quality, high-performance materials designed to withstand years of indoor-outdoor use. Your cushions will be highly resistant to UV rays, water, dirt, stains and damage, keeping them beautiful and functional for season after season.
If your chaise is primarily used as a piece of outdoor patio furniture, taking a little extra care can help your cushions last even longer. Keeping the cushions in storage between uses minimizes exposure to the elements, further preventing issues like sun bleaching, mold or mildew.
Because we use resilient solution-dyed acrylic fabrics, cleaning your custom cushions is easy. First, gently brush or wipe any dry surface debris off of the cushion. Then, use a mild solution of soap and water to spot clean the chaise as necessary. Shake off any excess water after cleaning and allow the cushions to fully dry before storing to prevent the growth of mold or mildew.
Depending on what your cushion is made from, some details may vary. Be sure to read and follow any special instructions printed on the tag when cleaning. Try to scrub gently and do not use harsh detergents or bleach, as these may cause damage to the materials.
