DIY Outdoor Space

DIY Outdoor Space Makeover Tips
 
 
 

If you have an outdoor space that you have been able to enjoy time in this summer, perhaps that space is looking a little tired and could use a little refresh right about now. 
For a flash of change try adding new lighting - a touch of whimsy, string lights on a porch, balcony, or pergola will do the trick. For a modern, sleek look there are smart LED light strips you can connect with a virtual assistant like Alexa. Layer light for dimension and to set the mood. 

Adding plants is another way to brighten your space. Think colourful annuals grouped in pots, with a colour scheme for cohesion. You could also add a shallow planter of succulents on a table. For privacy, full-leaf plants, fast-growing vines, and ornamental grasses are good options.

To give your patio furniture a fresh new look, change your cushion covers. Choose a colour theme and incorporate that with both solid colours and patterns. Ensure the fabric dries quickly and is easy to clean.

Look to your walls and floors as additional ways to transform your space To add visual interest you can incorporate wall art, fountains, statues, birdhouses, clocks, mirrors, or maybe even a chandelier. Update your flooring with an outdoor rug or interlocking deck tiles to tie things together.

With a few little tweaks, you can create a whole new ambiance the next time you step outside to relax.
