Decorate Your Outdoor Haven for Ambiance

May 16, 2011

avant gardenHow many of us love being outside on our patios — no matter what season it may be? Well, maybe not in South Florida at high noon in August or in Chicago in mid-January, but for most of the year at locations around the country, we have plenty of great days to spend outdoors, right in our own back yards. Our patios, gardens and other outdoor spaces have become another room in our home, so why not decorate these spaces to be warm, inviting, comfortable and with a garden-like ambiance?

To get started, your first selection would be great outdoor furniture — a chaise lounge or two, maybe a loveseat or sofa with wonderful outdoor fabrics to give it punch and some elegance or fun, or a couple of small tables for your lemonade. Add to that an outdoor area rug to create a room-like feeling for your lounge grouping.

Now it’s time to bring in some fresh, colorful flowers to make your new “room” come alive with color and lots of fresh greenery. Add flowers from yellow to red to purple and orange. Place flowers everywhere and make sure you select those with wonderful aromas, so you have these floating in the crisp air to take you somewhere far, far away. To really add dimension and layer in your beautiful plants and flowers, think of ways to surround yourself from top to bottom with flowering bouquets.

Tall planters with shelves can be wonderful accessories to fill spaces with color from low to high. Planters of wood and wicker add warmth to your garden canvas. Wrought iron plant stands, trellises and wall racks are other ways to adorn your patio with added dimensions for flowers and other lush greenery. Tiered wagon carts are perfect accessories to showcase even more flowers all over your patio. Add garden boxes to hang on your windows from the outside and fill the space everywhere to create a floral ecstasy that will be a delight to behold.

Most of us would agree that the outdoor room we just created sounds like a fantastic place to stay for a few well-deserved hours each week and the perfect place to get back to nature and replenish our energy. At Avant Garden you will find every type of garden accessory your outdoor haven will ever need. Choose planters, plant stands, flower boxes, flower pots and saucers, flower liners and trellis clips.
