March is National Decorating Month. As a natural extension of your living space, your patio or deck can be as thoughtfully decorated as any room of your home. With the right furniture and accessories, even the smallest patio can become an inviting, private escape. Try a couple of these ideas from HGTV.com to transform your underused patio into a secluded oasis for lounging and entertaining.
CREATE LAYERS – Dress your patio from top to bottom to make even the smallest space feel like an inviting retreat. Add lushness with layered outdoor rugs, throw pillows, greenery, and string lights. 3 Tips for Stringing Lights
BRING IN GREENERY – An integral part of any outdoor room, greenery adds a vibrancy that you just can’t get from anything else. Bring color and texture to your patio with a variety of potted plants.
ADD ACCENTS OF COLOR – Neutral tones are relaxing, but a splash of color keeps things interesting. Add some accents of blues and greens to compliment your natural surroundings without overpowering their beauty. Shades of red, pink, or yellow will add the final layer of contrast to create a complementary whole.
THE RIGHT OUTDOOR FURNITURE – The right seating can turn an underused patio into the perfect place to start or end your day. Whether it’s a daybed, hammock, or lounge chair, add a comfy place to sit back and put up your feet.
