Top Trends for Your Summer Outdoor Space

FUN OPTIONS FOR EVERY HOME


 1. Hang a Fun Birdhouse

Nothing says the start of Summer like the sound of birds chirping in the morning! It’s a fun and easy way to add color to your yard or porch. This could either be a DIY project by purchasing a kit or you can buy your dream home . . . just a little version. This can also be accompanied by a cute birdbath that can match your home or the aesthetic you’re going for!

BONUS: You can turn this into a fun art project by painting your birdhouse and adding customizations!

2. Try Planting Your Own Herb and Spice Garden

Planting your own herb and spice garden is super easy and requires very little space. All you need is a planter, a few seeds and some water. Now is the perfect time to plant as well, so find your favorite herbs and get started!

3.  Create an Outdoor Eating Area

One of our favorite new trends this season are picnic-style eating areas! You can spice up your space by adding a cute circle table, decorating your chairs or even creating a picnic area in your backyard. On sunny days, accompanying this eating area with an umbrella is the perfect way to get out of the sun and enjoy the day. Throw in a baguette, cheese and some fruit and you’re good to go. It’s perfect for lunch with your family or a cute date!

4. Add Twinkly Lights for Atmosphere

Adding twinkly lights is a great way to add soft lighting to any outdoor space. They can be put up with command strips to ensure you don’t have to add holes to your house and are perfect when transitioning into Summer nights! Some of the best ways to hang them are by zig-zagging them on the roof of your porch or wrapping them around the poles of your porch to allow you to sit outside and relax.
