Spring Outdoor Decor Ideas

Relax in a retreat of your own making when you go outside. Create an outdoor space with a theme in mind to enjoy a break from hectic everyday life. Wicker patio furniture can reflect a “relaxing beach” theme. Maybe your tastes run more toward the lakeside or mountain lodge style. Try a
cushioned wood bench and a pair of stone side tables for your lodge-inspired space. Whatever you choose, make it your own.

When the time is right, celebrate the arrival of warmer weather by taking your entertaining outside. Create the scene with festive lanterns and bursts of tropical colored outdoor cushions for your chairs or lounge sets. Set the patio dining table with fresh cut flowers from your own garden. Then invite guests and let the fun begin!

Light up the nights and lead the way to outdoor fun. Start with outdoor walkway and path lighting so there’s always light underfoot.

No yard? No problem. Hang up some string lightsaround your balcony, patio or deck to brighten your outdoor entertainment space.

Of course you can go all out to get the look you desire, but you can also add layers over time. Start small with a conversation or bistro set, then add a few pieces each season. Little by little, your outdoor room can come together with decor pieces such as an outdoor rug, some throw pillows, poufs and ottomans and some potted plants.

There are many ways to transform your porch into a casual relaxing spot to enjoy the warmth of spring. Decorate your front door with a floral wreath to welcome the season. Replace the door mat you used to keep out the debris of winter with a jute door mat in a seasonal color. Change the throws and cushions of your porch seating in favor of bright colors and patterns crafted from light textured materials. A couple of hanging baskets filled with flowers adds to your spring refresh of your porch.

Flowers and plants herald the arrival of spring. Add containers of plants to your patio space to create a pleasant and relaxing environment during the season. Consider a range of lush foliage, blooms and delicate flowers for patio planters and boxes like tulips, roses, hardy succulents and hydrangeas. Unique flower containers such as antique milk cans add a classic touch. When planning your patio layout, assess how much sun or shade your patio has. Make sure the flower choices to enliven your patio are right for full sun or partial shade.

Don’t forget accessories to add some convenience for your outdoor space. A serving caddy is both functional and stylish. When the party is over, you can always drop some succulents into the dividers and turn it into a planter until its next use.

Add an outdoor statue or bench to your patio space to complete the look.

When your outdoor space is pulled together, all you’ll need to do is invite guests or sit back and enjoy your outdoor space.
