The summer sunshine is fast approaching and it’s time to get your garden as ready for summer as you are! Just like an apartment or a home, it’s essential to make your garden patio unique with some personal touches.

Making your outdoor space cozy is simple with these five fresh tips for your backyard!

Lounging

Your garden is meant to be a place of tranquility and peace, so going with the lounging style is a good way to go. If simple is more your style, some potted plants and lanterns can go a long way with your chill vibe. Looking for something more? Adding a daybed or hammock will take it from comfortable to stylish in no time!

Tropical

Bright and colorful tends to give any decor a bold design and it’s very easy. Most people think that taking brightness to the outdoors means investing in colorful patio furniture, but not necessarily. A budget friendly and convenient way to keep things colorful is to invest in accent pieces. From printed pillows to a colorful outdoor rug, bringing brightness to your backyard can really make a difference to your garden.

Monochrome

If you’re like me, contemporary is something I dream of, but don’t really know how to bring it to life. An easy way of accomplishing this is sticking to a gray, white, or a neutral color palette. Going with neutral chairs and white or gray accents will bring a polished and modern look to your backyard.

Get Some Shade

Enjoying the summer sunshine doesn’t mean you need it in your face 24-7. Shade is necessary for your backyard and it will also boost your decor. Whether it’s a patio table with an umbrella or you purchase an umbrella to add some shade, either way, you and your guests will enjoy it.

Stringing Along

String lights can add a refined touch to your garden decor. Not only does it make the mood more romantic and cozy, but it also keeps your backyard bright. So string lights along your fence or hanging over the patio, either way it’s a great trend to add to your garden!
