Choose Canvas Fabrics For Your Next Outdoor Project

Canvas is probably one of the best-known fabrics that is used in the great outdoors. In fact, traditional tents are often made with this material, as it provides protection against the weather elements and is durable to boot. Of course, more applications with canvas are now possible.

One of the major additional benefits of canvas is its relatively low cost. Canvas is made from a natural cotton fibre, which is relatively easy to obtain and therefore the cost remains low. Cotton is also a fabric fibre you can easily dye, so if you purchase some plain canvas, you can give it any colour you like.

When using cotton canvas for your outdoor projects, do not forget that some canvas may require a protective finish before you use it. For example, if you dyed your canvas yourself, a protective coating to stop the dye from bleeding will be recommended.

Find Water Resistant Outdoor Fabrics For Durability

Create beautiful outdoor decor that is able to withstand the elements with water resistant and weather resistant fabrics. Ensure your creation lasts and does not fade with the right outdoor fabrics from Spotlight!

Pick From Our Range Of Quality Outdoor Fabric

Aside from canvas fabric, there are other alternatives that are just as effective for outdoor use:

Duck Cloth

For many crafters, duck cloth is considered as the upgraded version of cotton canvas. While less known than canvas as an outdoor fabric, duck cloth has a tighter weave, which makes it more durable. Despite the tighter weave, many people find that duck cloth feels more comfortable than cotton canvas. So, if you are looking for cushion cover fabric to put outside, this kind of fabric might be the ideal choice.

Vinyl

Durability is a major concern for many people who browse outdoor fabrics. Made from polyvinyl chloride, vinyl is sturdy and easy to maintain. Despite its high durability, vinyl can be considered as less comfortable. When temperatures rise, vinyl can heat up considerably. If the skin contacts the vinyl directly in those temperatures, it can be overly warm and uncomfortable.
