When spring and summertime outdoor activities are in full swing, you’re most likely ready to enjoy your deck again. From hosting barbeques with friends and family to enjoying a relaxing evening after a long day, your backyard deck can become an ideal living space for many occasions. We’re sharing with you four ways to add comfort and style to your outdoor living space.

Light up your Space
You can easily add a glowing ambiance to your deck with solar post caps, step lights and string lights. Post caps call for simple installation and the styles available are endless, ranging from contemporary to traditional options.

Pile on the Pillows
Comfort is just as important as style, so why not have the best of both worlds? Throw pillows are a great way to add colorful accents to your space. Through the use of innovative outdoor fabrics such as olefin or acrylic fabrics, you can easily carry out a theme unique to your personal taste without having to worry about damage from the elements.

Incorporate a Vertical Garden
Vertical gardens are great for adding dimension, disguising unwanted views and adding privacy to your deck space. A vertical garden wall can provide a sense of height and depth to an otherwise small space.
For flowering vines, use lattice as your wall structure. Remember to reinforce the lattice sheet with garden stakes, a railing or a frame for added support.
 

Embellish with Eclectic Planter Pots and Lanterns
Brighten up your deck with some greenery in planter pots and trend-worthy outdoor lanterns. Both items can be found at just about any home store in an array of unique shapes, textures and colors to match your style. Planter pots and lanterns will effortlessly add a contemporary touch to finish off your outdoor living space.
