Spring is in the air! – Patio Inspiration

Last year, I finally moved into a place with an outdoor patio!  I was so excited and searched for things to fill the space.  However, the indoor rooms needed a bit more attention so instead I worked on those spaces.  Also, I found myself spending a great deal of time at the pool and less emphasis on the patio resulted.

However, 2015 is a new year and I’d really love to make that space an extension of my living space.  Here is a concept photo as well as a sketch of the space:

It’s not a huge space but I think I can maximize it’s potential :)

I already purchased this great little wrought iron folding table at Target…awesome b/c of size and portability…but i need chairs…

Love the Parisian bistro chairs!

This chaise/daybed from C&B would really make the space.  Extra seating for guests but a great place for me to curl up with my ipad and get inspired…I hope I can make this happen :)

 

I love how colorful (and affordable) outdoor area rugs are!  This is a great option to bring in my blue color scheme…

Fun patterns, yes?!

If I have space for this; I would love a little extra room to bring the bar outdoors…
