Creating a beautiful, inviting outdoor space is always a great idea and now it is essential. No matter the size of your outdoor space you can design it to live large. Take our tips, go outside and make a magical space to enjoy now & all summer long. Consider the layout of your space & create some designated area. Create a vista through an arch or gate, add a path & add height to your yard. Some specific elements/pieces to add are: An outdoor bed or a hammock. See a classic hammock HERE. Almost any sized space can squeeze in a bistro set. See one we like HERE. Classic lines and in such fun colors! See Kelly's arbor HERE. Kelly's raised beds can be purchased HERE. The most darling tiny shed HERE. Kelly loves hers! ( bummer sold out! ) Add a water or fire element to really enhance your space. Even a tabletop fire bowl adds a lot of atmosphere.
