Creating Outdoor Living In Any Space

Since the COVID-19 Pandemic, outdoor living has become a “thing”. We were confined to our properties for so long that it gave us a chance to appreciate what we had around us in the immediate vicinity. Here are some ways to create an outdoor experience no matter where you live.

  1. Outdoor kitchen anyone? This trend has seen a sharp increase since the COVID-19 pandemic. “Safer At Home” orders have encouraged many homeowners to recreate amazing restaurant experiences at home. An outdoor kitchen might be just what you need.

  2. Spruce up the living area around your grill. Use garden screens, potted plants/flowers, or wooden crates to create a unique area by the grill.

  3. Start a special garden. Ever admired flowers in your neighbors yard or well-manicured landscaped gardens as you drove around? Take some time to create a beautiful area in your own garden.

  4. Find a spot in your garden and create a nook. It can be a bench with colorful throw pillows, a large pot with colorful flowers, or a colorful rock garden.

  5. Use your windowsills! What if you are an apartment dweller and you have no outdoor space? Plants and throw pillows with a few books can brighten any window space. Add more color in your window treatment and you have a “look”.

  6. Add fresh flowers to your dining table. Suppose you have no view at all? Select bright, scented floral varieties. Couple that with a place setting that works with the flowers you’ve selected, and voila!

  7. Create a corner. If your living space confines you to a single room, use one corner of your space to get creative. Outdoor lanterns, floor pillows, fresh flowers, and a small water feature can create the outdoor living serenity you need.

    Don’t let staying at home get you down. Look around and make the most of your environment!
