Outdoor Living Plans

I am in the process of designing our deck addition I HOPE to put on the house this summer (of course this pandemic is making things a little more tricky/iffy) but I’m dreaming of making it a welcoming, relaxing, and inspiring outdoor place!

I want there to be room for dining outside (my favorite thing to do in the summer!) and comfortable seating where I can put my feet up while the boys wear themselves out running in the yard :) Plus I want to make it a cozy place to host friends on the deck with a glass of a wine after the sun goes down, with twinkling string lights and a warm fire table. Ahh how I long for these days!

Here is my inspiration of how to decorate the space once the deck is done (btw - full deck plan post coming soon!):

I already purchased these Trex Adirondack chairs and I got six of these wicker bistro chairs from Target a few years ago. The outdoor living set and dining table are from the Portside Outdoor collection from West Elm. The amazing log fire table is from Arhaus, along with the hanging chair. And I got these cute outdoor lumbar pillows from Restoration Hardware to tie everything together. Last but not least, I bought these outdoor vintage string lights from Ballard Designs. We had them at our house in Cleveland and they were such great quality and lasted for years and years!

Now all I need is for the Coronavirus to go away so I can begin building, using, and loving this space! So ready for some beautiful summer days (and nights!) :)
