In these days of confinement, we all have the same thought:what can I do against boredom? Without talking about the miracle cure, I'm going to talk to you about outdoor decoration, my field of activity, to deceive the long days ahead of us.
Transforming her exterior sounds like a good distraction to me!
We must therefore make up our minds and when the watchword is “stay at home”, we are very happy to have an exterior, even a small one, which allows us to get some fresh air. For anyone not so lucky, maybe you should switch blog posts. There is one that might interest you on:our 5 reasons to change your decor, knowing that we have found the bonus reason...
With the arrival of sunny days and these next few days to stay at home, we are invited to think about our exterior and in particular the decoration of our balcony. Whether it is more or less large, rather elongated or whether it is a small piece of outdoor space on which we can just place a table and two chairs, our balcony inherits all our attention! Why not take advantage of the confinement to make it more pleasant and cocooning? Just because it opens onto a busy road doesn't mean you can't enjoy your breath of fresh air too. So how do you make the most of your balcony? List of my favorites so that your outdoor decor reflects your desires.
First of all, if you lack greenery, consider adding a fake grass floor, it's a detail that I immediately liked when I saw it the first time at a friend's house. It brings this "country" touch that we miss terribly in the city. Not necessarily the most ecological nor the most practical to obtain at the moment, I hear it, it can also be replaced by plants. You certainly have flowers in your living room that are also terribly lacking in sunlight? So maybe it's time to take advantage of it and redo your outdoor decor with it?
A concern that we all know:the neighborhood... So if it's something that pollutes your moments of relaxation outdoors, I invite you to take a look at the outdoor decoration category. You will find several supports to solve this problem and find all the pleasure of staying on the balcony. Thanks to an outdoor canvas or even a screen, you will have the impression of no longer having any neighbours. Even better they can make you travel to the other side of the planet. Personally, I'm not against a bit of a change of scenery...
A basic, but I would say essential for all those who like to have a drink outside or their coffee with the first rays of the sun, a table (even a small one) and a chair. So, imagine strolling around with a book, sunglasses on your nose and the sun caressing your skin... It's good I left to finish my confinement in the islands!
Now let's move on to the lucky ones, those who actually have a terrace! Do you know that we all envy you at this time? Finally you will have understood, I do not have a terrace, so I am seriously thinking of moving as soon as possible...
That does not prevent me from thinking of you and offering you some elements to refine or completely create your exterior decoration.
Already, if you have the possibility, I am a FAN of outdoor kitchens, in addition to the practical and anti-odor side, they are perfect for keeping in touch with your guests, you no longer need to be away, with many trips back and forth to the kitchen. Everything is available! And then it's nice an outdoor kitchen by the pool, not far from a relaxation area... Just thinking about it, it makes me dream! The advantage is that in this period of confinement, you have time to create it yourself! The budget is reduced and you will be proud of your success.
As for the less DIY enthusiasts, perhaps you will be tempted by an outdoor curtain. Easy to install, it brings to any space a personalized exterior decoration that suits you.
To conclude:investing in outdoor decoration is a way to be able to create with your garden or your balcony a real space in its own right. All ideas are good to make our living spaces more cocooning. Even more today when we realize how much being able to take a breath of fresh air is a pleasure and an invaluable freedom.
