Outdoor Patio Decorating Ideas
Is there anything better than enjoying the warm days and evenings that Nashville’s Springtime offers? There is, if you have a great new patio to spend them on. After the brick and wood have been set, you’re left taking care of the fun part – the decorating. Your new patio is a blank canvas ready for your creativity and taste to shine through. But where to begin? Outdoor decor can be tricky, but here are a few outdoor patio-decorating ideas to get you started:
Outdoor Dining Furniture
You’re going to want some place to really enjoy the time spent outside. Comfy chairs and sturdy weather-proof tables will allow you the option to enjoy outdoor dining in addition to get creative with interesting pieces and fun throw pillows. A hammock or hanging chairs are always fun, and outdoor rugs can really tie a space together.
Lay a Stone Path
Creating a path using bricks or flagstones is an aesthetically pleasing option that draws you to another point-of-interest in your backyard. It’s durable, blends in naturally, and is fairly easy to install on your own.
Lighting
So many options, so little time. You can hang, string, post, or place almost any kind of lighting anywhere. Perhaps you’d like to illuminate your patio stairs, or utilize solar lights to install in the ground around the space – the possibilities are endless. Just be sure to utilize low-voltage lighting made specifically for outdoors.
Garden
Install a hanging garden to display your green thumb or dedicate a small area to an herb garden and enjoy the fruits of your labor all summer long.
Fire Pit
Everyone enjoys a nighttime fire and there are hundreds of relatively easy DIY options available to build your own fire pit. If that isn’t your thing, most outdoor stores carry a plethora of portable fire pits that can safely be moved around your lawn as you see fit. Marshmallows are optional.
