How to Decorate Your Patio and Outdoor Spaces for Winter
While you may be spending less time outside during the colder months, there’s no reason you can’t enjoy your garden - even in chilly weather. Read on to discover how to decorate your patio and outdoor spaces this winter.
Create a cosy outdoor seating area
Whether you’re enjoying some snow or lighting a bonfire, it’s a good idea to create a cosy outdoor seating area to huddle on a chilly day. You will need:
● A modern outdoor sofa
● Comfortable armchairs
● A quality storage heater
● Warm throw blankets and pillows
● A cushioned bench with built-in storage space to store toys and outside tools
● A coffee table to accommodate hot chocolate and mulled wine
Install a fire pit
A crackling fire pit is a great way to bring people together in colder weather. Expect many magical winter nights roasting marshmallows and sharing stories. If you want to make your fire pit a permanent fixture, it may be worth contacting hardscaping professionals for a proper installation.
Add festive lighting
Nothing brightens up a patio more than fairy lights and LED lamps. Not only are string lights affordable and easy to put up, but they also add a beautiful glow and ambiance to your outdoor spaces. Energy-saving lamps are additionally a great way to illuminate your patio, and they’re sustainable. As Christmas approaches, you can add more colour and vibrancy to your outdoor lights - think seasonal displays featuring reindeers and snowmen!
Invest in a hot tub
A hot tub is the ultimate luxury investment to help you make the most of the festive season. Providing warmth and relaxation all year round, this addition to your patio will be more than worthwhile. Whether you’re looking for a romantic setting for two or a fun environment for your kids to splash around in, a hot tub is the ultimate winter treat.
Consider patio renovation
