Even the smallest area can be freshened up with goodies. You can be creative with color and texture… You can go traditional, contemporary or whimsical.
There are absolutely no rules when it comes to having fun with your outdoor space.
There are absolutely no rules when it comes to having fun with your outdoor space.
You can accomplish this in a few ways ~ plants, flowers, decorative and colorful pots, lighting, lanterns, candles… Comfort is also extremely important if you want your guests to stay a while too! Outdoor cushions and pillows are key & a fire pit comes in handy on those chilly summer nights (+ it will keep the bugs away!).
Experiment with these suggestions at your next summer party (& draw inspiration from all the photos in this post & on the Room for Style Pinterest Board)!
Who said you need to practical and boring? Invest in re-usable, colorful plastic dishes & wine glasses. Use linens to cover your picnic table and create a mood with pillows on the chairs. Add a few candles and you’ve got the decor that people will talk about.
Pillows can be found at Crate & Barrel (1, 2, 3, 4)

My dream is to one day have a huge backyard with an outdoor kitchen and everything. Sigh–it'd be amazing!

The one thing I miss while living in NYC is any form of a patio or outdoor space to decorate….one day, but until then I'll keep dreaming with pictures like the ones above!
