Even the most beautiful decks can look boring without the right furniture, decor, and details. Luckily, it’s easier than you think to transform your outdoor space into one that you won’t want to leave!
Cozy Seating Space. Start by creating outdoor conversation areas that are just as inviting as the ones found indoors. Arrange comfortable furniture so that guests can chat, and use an outdoor rug to help define the area.
Pay as much attention to your outdoor table as you would your indoor setting. But outdoors, you have even more freedom to work with bright colors that complement the surroundings.
Just because you’re dining outdoors, it doesn’t mean you have to rely on disposable dinnerware. Choose colorful tableware to add sophistication and style to your outdoor table.
Plants add personality to any deck. Their shapes help soften hard, straight lines, and they provide bold pops of color. On this deck’s privacy screen, we added plant shelves cut from 2x10 boards that get screwed to the tall spindles.
We also used hanging plants to screen one side of the seating area. They hang at different heights from whimsical hooks that add a bit of flair.
