Transform Your Outdoor Space on a Budget

There are a lot of positives and negatives to the size of your outdoor space. For some, having a large yard and entertaining space is very important to a homeowner. However the bigger the space, the longer time you will spend with the upkeep. A smaller space allows you to still enjoy outdoor living but less responsibility as a homeowner. 

Whether your space is big, or small, there are design features that you can do to enhance your space while keeping to a smaller budget. 

  • Outdoor rug

    • A large rug can add color and change up your patio without painting or staining.

  • Gravel patio

    • Gravel is inexpensive and easy to install, and it's a good choice for informal patios that can accommodate curves.

  • String lights

    • String lights can add a cozy ambiance and a practical light source at night. You can drape, mount, or hang them in trees or across your yard.

  • Pergola

    • Pergolas are inexpensive and easy to build, and they can have a big impact on your yard, especially if you add plants.

  • Patio furniture

    • Adding to or updating your outdoor furniture can be a cost-effective way to improve your space.

  • Hammock

    • A hammock can provide a cozy spot for napping when strung between trees or deck posts. You can also add outdoor pillows or cushions for extra comfort.

Simple updates can give big results depending on what you want to accomplish. Do research on your area, whats trending, and how to best achieve your goals for your outdoor space!
