August Backyard Decorating Tips

Posted on July 25th, 2017

Picture this: you’ve planned the most extravagant barbeque in your backyard this weekend, and invited ten of your closest friends. Now that you have stocked up on food, paper goods and liters of soda, you’re prepared to take on the masses — but your backyard’s appearance could state otherwise. Despite August being deemed the unofficial last month of summer (it’s actually September 22), it’s never too late to jazz up your backyard’s appearance!

Install a Water Fountain

Besides being a staple of most hotels and parks, a water fountain is a wonderful attribute to add to your backyard. Unlike traditional fountains, at-home fountains are as simple to assemble as piecing together a new coffee table! With a variety of options, this little aquatic wonder will bring life to any outdoor space.

Reconstruct Your Flower Beds

Has the foliage around your property lost its signature flair? With a few new additions to your flower beds, this will be an easy solution to fix! To start: pick up some plants that will add a spark, such as gerber daisies, and plant them. To complete the transformation, place some mulch around the flower bed to give a fuller, more visually appealing appearance.

Create an Outdoor Living Room

Yes, you read that right — create a comfortable outdoor living space within your backyard. Start with an outdoor rug of your choice and lay that down within the center. Next, start piecing together odds and ends of outdoor furniture to replicate a living room. Finally, add some small decorative touches such as outdoor pillows and a serving tray.
