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!

Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been 19 years since I’ve been here and it’s even more magical than I remember! There is something truly special about this city. The architecture, the people, the most amazing pastries, and gorgeous gardens. Showing my family this city was a gift. I experience it in a different way each time and it just keeps getting better.

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character. (Swipe for the before) It now feels like my own little escape to the French countryside every time I do laundry, and I’m not mad about it.

My @worxtools Switch Driver and Impact Driver were the real MVP’s of this project! Saving me time and energy. I love how it now doubles as a shelf to display antiques I’ve collected throughout the years and also helps me keep this place organized!
