Solar shades on the windows will help with the heat and still keep the view and then I would use some wicker furniture with an outdoor fabric for the cushions choose a fabric that has the wall color in it somewhere.

Room is roughly 13x13. It has an air conditioner in there, but no heat - so I will call it a 3 season.

Perhaps should not have painted it green... I have such a hard time finding artwork, rugs, etc. I want to create a small, cozy room that would just envelope and "hug" me, everything else in my home is kind of open. The dark walls close the room in, it feels warm and inviting to me. Some may not like the feel, but it is what I am seeking for the space. I do not want light and airy (I don't think) but not sure how to furnish so it looks inviting, a place that makes you want to relax. Does hat make sense?

I wrote a reply and it didn't post here but in another thread, how odd.

Do you want wicker-type patio furniture, or something like Ikea's Ektorp slipcovered sofa and chairs?

What is your style? More classic, or modern or ? You could use a sisal rug, or a Persian/Oriental.

For artwork, I'd consider a series of botanicals with the same frames. You can do this inexpensively with books of reproduction botanical art, or even calendars.

There was a thread earlier this year about a black sunroom, from an article in the Wall Street Journal. It worked for that particular room in the house in the setting.

Some ideas,

beckysharp Reinstate SW Unconditionally I would not be opposed to wicker or rattan, but not light and lacy. Not so much hung up on the material as to the feel, I would prefer something sturdy that invites people to put up their feet! Had not thought of chaise loungers but not opposed. Have to be careful though because room is not that large.

We have an all-weather wicker patio set, sofa and two chairs, from Costco that's not at all light and lacy, and the sofa gets a lot of use for naps : ) . That said, it's not nearly as comfortable as an indoor sofa with a cotton or cotton-blend slipcover.

I would think more about how you plan to use the space, and choose the furniture accordingly. If you want posters here to help you plan the space, you need to post a layout with measurements. Even hand-drawn will work.

Thanks beckysharp Reinstate SW Unconditionally the indoor furniture will probably be more in line with what I want - I am going to do some exploring for items and then I will do another post with what I find and the measurements.

The resale market for cozy couches and chairs in my area is fantastic. Maybe look there? You could also find some nice botanical prints that way as well.

I have a small four seasons sunroom. It is a quiet play area for kids and now houses a 3/4 bass in the corner instead of a the pictured rocking horse but I wanted a darker feel so we went with green walls hard to see in picture, green leaf curtains and navy and teal furniture. The ceiling is dark stained wood. I found pier one had good sized furniture for small spaces.

i think the room draws one in nicely but my inviting is a bit more formal than on trend.

roarah looks cozy in there! I especially like those curtains. May I see a close up? beckysharp Reinstate SW Unconditionally It is just a square room just a little over 13 feet wide and a little over 13 feet deep - it used to be a screened porch that my husband and his cousin closed in so we could get more use out of. There is a door that leads to a cement patio on one side and on the other side a door leads out to the drive way. There is nothing but junk in there that is on it's way out so starting from scratch, oh and there is a hammock.

Your size is nice. Mine is much smaller at 13 x 8. I got the curtains for cheap at target years ago. It is dark now and this is on my phone so all colors are off in this picture.

I’d firstly paint the white doors. They are too jarring in contrast. Perhaps a touch lighter than the wall colour.

Then, some seating. Wicker, as others recommend, is great BUT only if you can find it in trimmed-down versions. Much wicker furniture is bulky, with rolled arms and thick backs. Another option might be wooden outdoor furniture, like ikea’s applaro line.

Some plants are a must, but don’t go overboard as they will need to come into your main house during winter.

The great thing about rooms like this is that they can be exuberant, really fun, because you won’t be staring at them 24 hours a day all year and so you won’t grow tired of them. So you can do things that would be tacky elsewhere but are simply casual and fun in here—loud fabrics like colourful florals, fuchsia prints on the tablecloths, string lighting, that sort of thing.

(This would rapidly become my favourite room.)

Sunrooms are a great way to improve living quality in your house as well as increasing the value of it. Enjoy outdoor experience on a rainy or cold day and watch the stars at night – bring the outdoors inside and extend the time you can enjoy it. Besides the design of your new sunroom, you must consider how to bring shading to it - you don’t want to sit in a glass house and get cooked.

The shades should easy adapt to your shading and privacy needs for example with a bottom up top down operation for pleated blinds, roman shades and venetian blinds.

Must be minimalistic to keep the open sunroom feeling

Must be available in many colors, prints and designs to choose from

Sunrooms and window treatment go hand in hand for a perfect sunroom experience.

Fenstermann LLC the sunroom is hot in the summer and cold in the winter - would thermal shades help?

Itza, you wrote above that your husband and a cousin had closed in a screen porch to make this sunroom -- is there any insulation at all in the walls, ceiling, and the floor if the space is raised? If not, you can't expect thermal shades to do the work proper insulation should do. Also, are the windows single-pane glass or sealed units?

beckysharp Reinstate SW Unconditionally You know what...I have NO idea?! I'll have to ask! Thanks for thinking of that - I wasn't home when they did it - really wasn't happy about it liked it better with the almost floor to ceiling removable window sashes that where there before ... is there a remedy now at all if they didn't?

is there a remedy now at all if they didn't?

Not really an easy, cheap and fast one : ( .
