Every outdoor space is filled with potential, from balconies and terraces to sprawling gardens with plenty of private nooks. No matter the size, you’d be forgiven for wanting to make the most out of every corner of your garden.
Garden corners offer the perfect opportunity to create a cosy and welcoming seating area, whether it’s for dining, lounging or reading.
The only thing better than relaxing indoors on a beautiful sunny day is to do all that outside, surrounded by nature. But first you must make your outdoor look and feel inviting, relaxing and pleasant not just for you but also for your guests and anyone who might want to join you.
Food somehow tastes better if you take it outside to enjoy it. So get a table, some chairs and organize a cozy dining spot. It can be in the garden, on the patio on anywhere you think you can get enough privacy as well as some lovely views.
Make sure everyone can sit comfortably. Build or buy a long bench or maybe even a sectional for your back yard. Add seat cushions and pillows and hang some string lights if you want some mood lighting. A very nice idea would be to also have a fire pit at the center.
And in case you forget why you’re out there, hang a sign to remind you to always relax and enjoy life. This one says “relax”, really suggestive I would say and stays on the fireplace mantel.
One of the most relaxing activities I can think of is sitting in a quiet and cozy corner with a good book. You might want to have such a nice spot in your backyard or garden. It should be private but not completely secluded.
