Covered Outdoor Living Space Decor

Spring is officially here, at least on the calendar. We are still seeing more cloudy and rainy days than sunny over here and I’m crossing my fingers that starts to change soon! I’m ready for some outdoor projects! Yesterday, the sun was actually out for most of the day, so I stopped all other projects and headed outside. I wasn’t going to give up any time with sun on my face, I need ALL the vitamin D. I had just picked up some new outdoor pillows from Target last weekend, so this was the perfect time to clean up our covered outdoor living space decor for spring.

Tour this Covered Outdoor Living Space Decor with touches of spring. New neutral outdoor pillows with cozy spring accents.

I was actually at Target with my family letting my daughter shop for her birthday and I just HAPPENED to go into the outdoor section. I was pleasantly surprised how many beautiful neutral outdoor pillows they had in stock. I stocked up on a bunch of brand new pillows that work so so well in this space, and also went well with what I already had.

Pillows:

Outdoor fire pit design with covered patio!

I’ve had the same POLYWOOD furniture and layered rugs out here for a few years now. I still like them, I might be ready for a change soon but this will work another season!

Spring Accent Decor

I found some more fun pillows on that trip that I’m using for around our fire pit. I’ll be sharing those soon too!

Having this covered portion of our yard had truly been so practical where we live. It rains so much and but sometimes it’s nice to just sit outside and get some fresh air. I can’t tell you how often I sit in that corner chair and work out here with the fire on while it rains outside. It’s just really peaceful.

It’s also great when we have company over. Sometimes the house can just feel stuffy with lots of people, so having the ability for people to step outside right from the kitchen.

I can only hope for more sunny days ahead though! I’d love to use the rest of our yard more often too!

      Hi! Thank you! I either got them from Michaels or JoANNs a few years ago. I don’t have a link for them, sorry!

My goal with every room is to make it feel warm, i My goal with every room is to make it feel warm, inviting and extra cozy. It’s often the final finishing touches that truly transform the vibe of a room. I picked up some final styling pieces from @wayfair , I am obsessed with both side tables. They are both statement pieces. And the personal photos, candle, heart trays and leather pillows are why bring the warmth and personal touches into this space.

I finally found the perfect family and pet-friendl I finally found the perfect family and pet-friendly sofa that passes the designer test! This is the 5-Seat Modular Corner Sectional from @7thavenueco in the color Oatmeal Beige. We ordered it in the extra-deep seat option for ultimate coziness. The material is water-repellent, stain-resistant and you can also throw all covers in the wash!

We cannot say enough great things about this sofa, we all love it and just sink into it. It definitely passes the family test. Plus, it truly is gorgeous. It looks very chic. 

Comment SOFA and I’ll send you the link to this exact one!
