Refresh your greenery. It’s not uncommon for plants to gradually disappear over the years, so spring is the ideal time to reintroduce some greenery or florals into your outdoor space. Start with trimming the existing plants, then consider potting flowers or creating a flower bed with retaining wall block.
Make your patio furniture pop. Winter can make even the most durable patio sets look a bit grungy. Wipe down your existing cushions (per the manufacturer’s care and maintenance guidelines). Or, if your set has seen better days, grab a new set that meets the function and aesthetic of your backyard.
Add a touch of warmth. Maximizing your patio isn’t easy without the proper tools. Consider incorporating a free-standing or wall-mounted patio heater to make those transitional periods a tad more toasty.
Light up the night. One easy element to add something extra special to your outdoor living space is lighting. Start small with outdoor string lights or go big with tabletop flames that allow you to dine or gather around the fire outdoors.
Create a space that is functional. Whether you’re looking for bug protection or want something that allows you to enjoy time outdoors rain or shine, make your outdoor space work for YOU with elements such as an outdoor screen or louvered pergola.
