Spring is officially here which means more time outside, outdoor parties and cookouts, and longer days to enjoy them in! Ready to create an outdoor living space for your family to enjoy? Check out these five tips to transform your outdoor space, without breaking the bank, into a space you love!
Purchase an Outdoor Rug
If you’re looking to transform your deck or patio into a more cozy space, try adding a weather-resistant outdoor rug! Having an outdoor rug means you can add color and a better ambiance to your space!
Add a Trellis or Outdoor Canopy
Don’t have a covered area to enjoy outside? Building a trellis to grow ivy or other vine plants across can be an inexpensive way to add shade and cover to your outdoor area. If you’re looking for a covered area to sit outside during a rainstorm, an outdoor canopy might be the better option. PLUS, an outdoor canopy with screened sides will protect you from mosquitos and other insects!
Plant flowers or beautiful plants in pots around your space
Flowers can add a beautiful look and feel to your space, and keeping them in pots around your space will help keep weed invasion down! Don’t necessarily have a green thumb? No problem! Purchase perennial plants that will come up year after year! The bonus? They’re already growing and blooming so maintenance is minimal!
Add fun cushions and pillows
Outdoor cushions and pillows make for a great way to keep your outdoor space cozy! To keep your outdoor cushions longer, keep them in your garage or shed when not in use to keep the sun from bleaching the colors out of them.
Add a Bluetooth Speaker
An inexpensive bluetooth speaker (that you can move inside or outside) is a great way to entertain your family or guests with music from your playlist!
