it's summer! and our thoughts naturally turn to spending more time outdoors. I can't be the only one. if you have a cozy patio like me, or a small balcony, you're always dreaming of what it would be like to have an expansive backyard to add more furniture! but don't worry, today I'm going to share with you some inspiring ideas to help you create a stylish and inviting outdoor oasis, no matter what space you have. it's the perfect time to refresh your outdoor space.
1. COLOR PALETTES
summer is synonymous with bright, bold colors. incorporate hues like turquoise, coral, and light green into your décor to instantly uplift the space. you can use these colors in cushions, outdoor rugs, and table settings.
pro tip: mix and match patterns like stripes, florals, and geometric prints to add visual interest and depth to your outdoor décor.
2. COMFORTABLE AND STYLING SEATING
comfort is key when it comes to outdoor seating. also, consider multi-functional furniture like benches with storage or modular seating that can be rearranged based on your needs!

3. AMBIENT LIGHTING
my fave tip! creating a magical ambiance with strategic lighting is the key. I personal use solar-powered garden lights — they transform your outdoor space into a charming retreat.
4. VASES AND FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS
potted plants, hanging baskets, and vertical gardens can add life and color to any space — I love them! choose plants that thrive in your climate and require minimal maintenance to keep your garden lush and vibrant all summer long.
