There’s nothing like relaxing on your own patio or balcony at the end of a long day. If your Beechtree Apartments home has personal outdoor space, you want to make sure you get the most out of your balcony space by creating a comfortable oasis you will want to visit throughout the year. It’s best to consider your balcony an extension of the rest of your living space. If you apply as much care and attention to your balcony as the rest of your apartment, you can soon make it into an essential part of your home.
First, Check the Rules
Most apartment communities have rules about outdoor decorations and furniture, so be sure to check the rules before committing to a particular balcony design. However, it’s usually best to limit your balcony and patio furnishings to plants, outdoor furniture, and décor intended for outdoor use.
Go Green
You can create your own lush outdoor space with potted plants. Get creative with different configurations, trying out plants large and small to create the environment you enjoy most.
Use Space-Saving Seating
One of the best perks of outdoor space is the extra seating room, so be sure to add some comfortable seats to best use your balcony space. Whether you prefer floor pillows, chairs, or a daybed, measure your balcony first to ensure the items fit. Add an outdoor bench or chair with storage space to maximize your space. You can use the hidden storage spaces to store throw blankets when you don’t need them.
Select Foldable Furniture
If you want to sit out on your balcony and enjoy a meal now and then, but you don’t want permanent dining furniture, choose folding furniture! A fold-down table and fold-up chairs can help you instantly create a breakfast nook when you want.
Choose Double-Duty Items
Selecting furniture and pieces with multiple purposes is the key to saving space when using your balcony. For example, colorful nesting tables can double as stools for extra seating. A beverage cooler can also work as an accent table, and solar-powered planters can provide extra evening light.
Seasonal Decorations for Your Balcony
One of the most enjoyable ways to use your balcony space is as a way to show off your holiday spirit throughout the year. You can use your balcony to hang string lights, garlands, and other decor. You can also use this space in spring and summer to plant your most colorful flowers, veggies, and other seasonal plants. In the fall, carve a Halloween pumpkin or hang delightfully scary Halloween decorations to get in the spirit.
