Modern Coastal Outdoor Decor

Sharing is caring!

Last week, I shared our summer home tour but I still have one space left to show! This time last year we updated our outdoor living space with all new furniture, so this year it was time to try something new and add a few pops of color. I know, color? Not a word you hear me say too often but I added just a touch to makes this space feel like summer with some Modern Coastal Outdoor Decor.

Modern Coastal Outdoor Decor

Black and White Outdoor living space with pops of tropical palms. Great take on Modern Coastal Decor.

Welcome to our tropical oasis! Last year everything was so fresh and clean and all brand new that I kept it simple. But this year I wanted to give it more of a summer feel. I picked up this set of tropical pillow covers on Amazon for a ridiculous price and I was so impressed with them. It was an easy way to give this space a new look and big pop!

We love spending time in this space during the warmer months. It’s always the place that people flock to during gatherings and it’s my favorite spot to sit after the kids go to bed.

Summer Outdoor Entertaining

Summer entertaining with outdoor living space!

I love to entertain, especially during the summer. Just last weekend we had people over and majority of the time everyone sat right out here. So it’s always one of my first places to get cleaned up for summer time!

Outdoor Living Space with Privacy Screen.

This year I tried something a little different out here and hung artwork on the privacy screen. I thought it needed little something extra. It’s different, a little modern and asymmetrical and I kinda like it. It just brings a little warmth to the space. What do you think?

And when the kids are asking for a snack for the millionth time this summer, I hope to be sitting right here enjoying a book and nice weather ;)

Now I encourage you to scroll down and view so many gorgeous outdoor living spaces! They are all absolutely stunning, I am so impressed!

Have you thought about adding more smart home tech Have you thought about adding more smart home technology into your own home? #ad It's been something we have talked about a lot over the past year, and I am loving the new products we've recently added from @amazon and @ring to refresh our home! Check out this video to see how I use them in my everyday life and head to the blog to read more about each product and @alexa99 #askalexa #amazonhome #smarthome
Guess what?! Both our leather sofa and drum coffee Guess what?! Both our leather sofa and drum coffee table are back in stock! We love both of these pieces from @overstock (gifted), and they are used daily around here. I will say when it comes to leather couches, we all give this one a 10/10, it’s incredibly comfortable and a piece you will have fore a looooong time.

We’ve really enjoyed the past week and low key weekend, it’s definitely getting us all a little more excited for summer and being outside a lot more!

One of my top questions is about the console table One of my top questions is about the console table in our entry way, I got it from Arhaus about 6 years ago and haven’t seen it in stock since... BUT they have two other ones on sale right now that have similar looks to them. I also rounded up a few more that will give you the same look. I linked them to this post in the @liketoknow.it app and will share in stories as well!

It’s supposed to be in the 70’s in Seattle nex It’s supposed to be in the 70’s in Seattle next week which means major work on the backyard will be taking place! Things are moving right along. Our exterior started to get a new paint job this week (see stories) which will be finished next week, we will finish layer the paver pathways and installing the new turf next week as well! Next up, landscape and lighting. I love how this space looks already, and I can’t wait to show you even more of it. 🖤

We spend normally spend a good part of our day in here and it’s proven to be so functional and cozy. I’m so glad we put in the countertop/bar top for the kids. It’s been working out great.

I will be the first to admit meal planning is not I will be the first to admit meal planning is not my strong suit, especially when life is so crazy busy right now. I'm all about easy meals and the quicker the better. But with all of our family food sensitivities and allergies meals can be a little trickier. I recently discovered @greenchef and I am so excited because they actually offer meal delivery service that caters towards different dietary needs, ie. gluten free, paleo, keto, etc. I tried it out last week and was super impressed. The meals come with all of the ingredients, all food allergies correctly labeled and most of the ingredients pre-cut for you. I timed both meals and they truly only took me 30 minutes to make and the flavors were so good. Swipe to watch the video!
