How To Create The Ultimate Backyard Oasis

By Chantel @k3ona

Hello Gorgeous! I don’t know about you but I’m so excited for the warm weather that is headed our way in Cali. My family always has a ton of BBQ”s and family gatherings during the spring and summer and they are so much fun. We are having our first BBQ very soon, so it’s time to spruce up the backyard with some fabulous furniture and decorations. If you are in the process of decorating your backyard then keep reading to see key pieces you need that will definitely have your backyard the place to be this summer.

1. CREATE DISTINCT SEATING AREAS: Comfort is key when lounging outdoors so use plushy lounge seating wherever you can.

2. LET THERE BE LIGHT: Exterior lighting is very important for creating ambiance and setting the mood. Overhead twinkling or vintage inspired globe lights are an excellent way to create a relaxing retreat.

3. CAUTION IT’S HOT: Nothing creates a cozy atmosphere and helps fend off the nighttime chill like a roaring fire.

4. BE PLANT FRIENDLY: Adding in  some key decorative plants in beautiful containers will help jazz up any patio or deck space. Very the size, shape and types of greenery for a natural and dynamic look.

5. ADD SOME COMFORTABLE PIECES: Make the atmosphere warm and cozy by adding in soft textural elements like throw pillows and outdoor rugs. Keep stylish throw blankets on deck to ward off any evening chills.

6. ACCESSORIZE: Style your outdoor area as you would any other area of your home. Incorporating decorative accessories that complements your style and personality.
