How to Style a Covered Patio
I am so excited to share with you a project we have been working on since spring!
The project is finally complete, and thanks to Home Depot, it is now a cozy place for our family to gather. Home Depot made designing this space a breeze. I downloaded their app and found everything I needed right there. They even have an augmented reality tool that let me see what the products would like like in the space before I purchased.
We have a great patio and yard area that we absolutely love. However it is so bright and sunny, we get hardly any shade. We always said we wanted to do a nice covered patio so we could have a place to escape the sun. So we decided to add an addition to the back of our house. We added the covered patio, and on top is going to be my dream closet. The closet is still a work in progress however the outside part is done. Here is my Covered Patio Reveal.

As you can see the space was bare and empty. I knew I wanted to make the area underneath the covered porch into a cozy sitting area. We have a TV on the wall now too so I wanted it to be a nice place to sit and take a break from the sun and the pool. I found everything I needed at Home Depot. Not only did they have so many great pieces to choose from, everything you see here I got for under $1200 too.
I wanted it to be neutral with some pops of color. I found this great grey sectional that fit the space perfectly. It is comfortable to sit on and came with an ottoman which is perfect to put our drinks and snacks on. I also like that in between the sitting areas is a storage bin to store the cushions in.
The key to decorating this small space was layering, and adding some fun details.
I found this beautiful outdoor rug that added a touch of color. And to finish the space I added some decor with the throw pillows, lanterns, and flameless candles. I feel like mixing some pops of color and prints is what really has helped bring the space to life and tied it all together.
I can not wait to start enjoying this patio with my boys.
And a big thank you to The Home Depot for making this project so fun to do!
