Five Ways to Spruce Up Your Outdoor Spaces
With warmer weather fast approaching, I bet you’re ready for some outdoor fun! But is your outdoor living space ready for you? The harsh winter months and pollen dusting of early spring have probably left your spaces in need of some love and attention. Get your brooms and power washers ready….I’ve got a list of easy updates that will have your deserted outdoors feeling like an oasis in no time!
Furniture
Maybe this is the year you’re ready to replace your worn-out furniture with something new, clean, and comfy! To make the most of your outdoor space, multiple seating areas will help your yard feel bigger and resort-like. There’s a lot of options for patio furniture. Whether you choose teak, iron, wicker, rope, or mixing it up, something new is always refreshing!
Rugs
Just like inside, a rug outdoors defines and frames an area. It transforms the space and makes it look put together. Rugs made for outdoor living are mud and mildew resistant. They can be sprayed off with water to keep them looking clean. I like the way an outdoor rug makes the space feel like an extension of your home.
Umbrellas
Elevate your outdoor living space with a beautiful umbrella. The right one can really make a statement! Not only are they fun and pretty, they also keep you cool and protect you from damaging rays. Every backyard needs one!
Pillows
Pillows are another item that brings the comfort of indoors to your outdoor living. They are probably the easiest way to add personality, color, and texture to your space. They’re soft and inviting which is a nice contrast against the hardness of outdoor elements like cement and wood.
Potted Plants
Outdoor plants aren’t just for the ground! Potted plants look incredible on a patio, by a pool, or at your front door. They are perfect for filling a corner or an empty wall. You can use one large potted plant or a combination of different sizes. Decorative pots add unique character and style. There’s a huge variety to choose from, so you’re sure to find ones to compliment your space!
