Porches, Patios & Decks

I have a large patio area that runs the length of our house, with a screened-in gazebo at one end. I love decorating my outdoor areas, just as I would decorate the inside of my house. I try to bring a little bit of my (and the family's) personality outside, too, during these warmer months as we wind up spending more time out of doors.

I like to tuck little accessories within the landscape and on some of the furniture pieces I have outside - a little outdoor ceramic cherub tucked into a bush, one of the birdhouses my Dad made for me sitting on a long bench, and other things I've picked up over the years.

I found some outdoor eye candy to share, maybe you'll get some ideas to incorporate into your own outdoor rooms! Enjoy!
