In the warm season, you want to be outside as often as possible. Therefore, it is important to create a corner on the site where you can gather guests, read in the shade of a canopy, or organize a family dinner. We offer 8 simple solutions to make your yard more comfortable and functional without big expenses.
Organization of space
Even if your patio is not as large as you would like, you shouldn't abandon the idea of creating a comfortable patio. It is enough to allocate a small space, the floor can be covered with tiles or artificial lawn, and the furniture is very compact and lightweight so that, if necessary, it can be easily removed to the utility room.
Hanging chair
A hanging chair will help create extra seating at a party or a great way to relax with your favorite book. It is made from improvised tools and dense fabric, and is suspended with a chain or dense rope, and, if necessary, can be easily removed and removed.
By the way, if you don't feel like making it yourself, just buy it. The other day I was in Leroy and saw a good option, it costs 8,000 rubles.
Lighting
For a patio, it is necessary to think over a system of additional lighting, the lights around the perimeter may simply not reach it with their light. It is best to use a long string that is charged by sunlight. You can choose the simplest model, because the bulbs are perfectly decorated in any way: shuttlecocks, paper lanterns, tennis ball halves, glass jars, and so on.
Container for fire
What could be more spectacular than a flickering fire in the evening twilight. You can create such an outdoor fireplace from metal and a gas burner, or you can purchase ready-made solutions. True, they will cost more. In the case of using metal as a bowl for fire, we suggest decorating its base with natural stone.
Modular furniture
Surely, many of you have wooden pallets and boards stored in the country. They can be used to build modular portable sofas and tables. Place them on the patio as needed. Boards should be sanded in advance and treated from rot and pests. Decorative pillows will help to make the seats softer and more comfortable.
Bright hues
When decorating a small patio area, choose light shades of furniture and paint for the facade. They visually expand the space and add light and lightness to it. You can paint everything in the desired color - from wooden furniture to pots with flowers.
Protective shield
If the courtyard is too close to the neighbors, we suggest adding privacy to the patio by building a lightweight frame and stretching thick fabric over it. You can take ready-made screens for gazebos, they cost about 1000 rubles.
Carpet for comfort
Even on the street or terrace, a bright rug will look appropriate. He will add coziness and warmth to the atmosphere. You don't have to buy expensive options. Get the cheapest moisture-resistant rug that you can paint in any color or apply designs using paint and stencils.
Wall planting
Plants will help add coziness to your patio patio. If it is not possible to create flower beds and hedges around the perimeter, do not be discouraged. You can also place a small garden on the wall. Pre-decorated pots are attached to it, where you can easily plant any flowers of your choice.
