Spring has sprung and we can’t wait to get started on revamping our backyards. Here are a few of our favorite
ideas to help give your backyard a much needed makeover.
Storage Galore
Outdoor accent
cushions are a great
way to add a pop of
pattern and color to an
outdoor seating area.
When designing your
patio, do not forget
to include functional
storage to protect your
pillows from weather
conditions.

Butterfly Feeder
No flower garden is complete
without the addition of
beautiful butterflies. Attract
these dainty creatures with a
butterfly feeder such as this
one from Backyard Nature
Products.
No backyard is complete without the addition of
comfortable seating. If you have a tendency to go the
traditional route with your indoor seating selections,
consider choosing a fun outdoor chair such as this one to
create a more playful look.

Vertical Garden
When space is at
a premium in your
backyard, consider
vertical gardening.
These trendy
gardens make great
use of space and
maximize every
square inch of your
garden area. We
particularly love
this one by Shawna
Coronado.

We adore this
unique bird house
idea by Robin
Fleming of Robin’s
Nesting Place.
Create your
own version by
repurposing an old
drawer and tea pot
into a whimsical
bird house.

Who says outdoor
dining has to be boring?
Instead of paper plates,
opt for these colorful
outdoor dishes. For those looking for a
more timeless option,
you can’t go wrong with
these neutral yet stately
dishes.
