Winter Patio Ideas 2020
Outdoor areas, be it the lawn, backyard, porch, or the front patio, suddenly become more important with the coming of the winter months. When the temperature drops, with some smart outdoor patio furniture ideas, you can enjoy the sunlight in your patio or porch this winter. Take a look at how you can implement these patio ideas to transform your outdoors that you will definitely love all year long and have some outdoor entertainment irrespective of the chill in the air.
Make Your Outdoor Area Warm and Cozy
The drastic drop in temperature is the main issue with being outdoors in the winter. You just can’t sit simply in the outdoors without some hot cocoa. However, you can create a warmer place with a nice fire pit. You can choose a nice portable fire pit that can be taken inside-out as and when required. Make the setting more comfortable with some plush throw blankets and enjoy the evening with some barbeque.
Plant Some Colorful Winter Plants
There is no fixed season to decorate with plants. If much effort isn't made to make the outdoor space look beautiful in winter, your home outdoor spaces can look a bit dull. Add some fun and vibrancy to your front patio with some evergreens plants, faux, and floral. Some plants you can consider for the winter include holly, pansies, rosemary, dogwood, and more.
Light It Up
In winter, days are significantly short and the nights are longer but that doesn’t mean you need to be inside your home as soon as the sun goes down. When it gets darker, you can light up the outdoors in the evening hours. For this, you need to have some soft, warm light like a lantern or solar light, or an outdoor lamp. With ample lighting, you can have some entertainment and gathering with family and friends. Solar power lights are amazing options to consider as they’ll charge during the day and often come on automatically at night.
Get Cozy with Blankets
A nice fluff blanket in a pop of colors and furry textures can add a touch of warmth with sumptuous feels. You can place an outdoor storage ottoman in velvety textures and store some throws and blankets inside them. When not in use, you can tuck them away.
