Reese Witherspoon's patio furniture collection is inspired by Southern hospitality and charm – upgrade your summer gatherings starting at $150

Reese Witherspoon.

Reese Witherspoon's Southern heritage comes through in her lifestyle, so much so that she has created a charming decor brand, Draper James. With patio season fast approaching, she's released a new furniture collection with POLYWOOD, a heritage American homeware brand.

As we brainstorm patio furniture ideas, we are taking inspiration from the Draper James x POLYWOOD collection, which features timeless silhouettes and durable wood materials. The assortment includes handsome dining sets, stunning porch swings, and naturally, rocking chairs, a staple of Southern design.

The beauty of this outdoor furniture goes beyond their looks; they're designed to bring communities together. 'At Draper James, we’ve always been inspired by the hospitality and charm of the South, where gathering outdoors with family and friends is a way of life,' says Piper Parsley, VP of brand marketing and eCommerce at Draper James. 'POLYWOOD shares our commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and timeless design, and in our collaboration, we created an outdoor furniture collection that blended our collective brand aesthetic and values with durability, great design, and sustainability.'

According to the POLYWOOD team, the American-made furnishings were designed with outdoor conditions and longevity (both in terms of style and function) in mind. 'The Draper James by POLYWOOD collaboration was inspired by the charm and grace of Southern living,' Julia Blanter, senior director of content marketing at POLYWOOD states. 'With its classic silhouettes and scalloped details, the Savannah Collection is designed to create a welcoming, stylish space that feels like home. Proudly crafted in the USA from all-weather materials that are as durable as they are beautiful, each piece of front porch, dining, lounge, and children’s furniture is low maintenance and easy to clean for effortless entertaining.'

Unlike indoor furniture, patio furnishings are susceptible to natural elements, so knowing how to clean outdoor furniture is a must. Luckily, all the products can be maintained with soap, water, and a soft bristle brush.

Each piece also comes in a range of material and stain options - including the POLYWOOD Heritage range (original all-weather plastic lumber featuring the POLYWOOD Signature finish), and the POLYWOOD Vintage range (elevated earth tones featuring the POLYWOOD Wirebrush finish for enduring character).
