More Patio Design

After I did my patio redo post last month, I have been receiving a bunch of emails asking how we did it!!!  I learned a few things about making outdoor living spaces look their best.  An  outdoor space is a huge blank canvas with so many possibilities…

Of course, a patio is fulfilling enough. But you can take your patio to another level with pergola kits and matching furniture. A life of relative luxury is just around the sunny corner!

• Use outdoor-friendly finishes (consider outdoor furniture in greys or charcoals).
• Use lots of indoor accessories to decorate the space (Homegoods is great for this).
• Buy a rug to ground the space (I still need to do this!!).
• Lighting, Lighting, Lighting is soo important! (Patdo Lighting has some great inexpensive LED battery operated decorative lights)
• The more greenery the better!
• And planters too (they can be mixed and matched)
• Bold colors are best!
• Set your outdoor dining table as you would your inside dining table (avoid breakables though!!)
