Whether you’re looking for some new comfortable outdoor furniture or colorful area rugs, there are endless ways to spruce up this important part of your home. If you need help picking out beautiful outdoor décor, read on for a guide that will inspire you to choose the perfect items made to suit your design style and your lifestyle.

Upgrade Your Lighting

Just as lighting helps improve the look and functionality of the inside of your home, it also adds beauty to the outside, too. Consider updating old or out-of-style lighting to give your patio a fresh, new look. If you don’t currently have any outdoor lighting, now is a great time to start adding some. A pendant light hung over an outdoor dining table will bring the comfort of the indoors outside. Consider the Made Goods Evander Pendant boasting a birdcage-inspired silhouette. Made of braided abaca rope, this pendant light has faux rattan slats that allow the light to shine through. Choose between natural colors like light honey and off-white or go bold with a deep navy blue or chestnut color to bring drama to the patio.

Accent lighting is another one of many easy and effective outdoor decor ideas that will add a warm glow to your patio space. Try an outdoor wall sconce light to illuminate a walkway or to bring brightness to a small outdoor area. The Crittenden Wall Sconce from Lighting by BLU features a simple and subtle design inspired by the clean lines of mid-century modern style. The durable, all-aluminum construction means this light will last throughout the seasons. It can also be used as an indoor light and has a classic streamlined cone profile. It directs the light downward, helping to light up a garden pathway. Choose between a satin aluminum or black finish to complete the look.

Add Comfort and Style with the Loom Outdoor Collection

One of the most important parts of a beautiful outdoor space is the furniture. Make your patio, deck, or porch area cozy and inviting with a new, roomy outdoor sofa. Explore products from the Loom Outdoor Collection by BLU from Meadow Blu, featuring a wide range of beautiful designs and products. The BLU Home Tropez Outdoor Sofa is enhanced with an intricate rope weave design that gives it a laid-back, boho-chic aesthetic. Resting on a durable solid teak base, it includes thick removable upholstered seat cushions in weather-resistant fabric. Two round bolster pillows are also included, and its soft finishes of taupe and white, gray, and pumice make it a versatile addition to any backyard setting.

The BLU Home Loom Outdoor Sofa is the perfect modern outdoor lounger. This sofa features curved arms that bring it a modern look. The loose upholstered seat and back are thick and comfortable and include all-weather fabric upholstery for lasting durability. A sturdy aluminum frame provides support, while the intricate rope weave design lends this outdoor sofa a nature-inspired aesthetic.

Another excellent choice is the BLU Home Tropez Outdoor Sofa Chair. With its contemporary squared silhouette, this roomy outdoor lounger features the signature woven rope design in taupe and white. A solid teak base finished in gray adds softness to the look, while thick removable cushions ensure endless hours of comfort as you relax and entertain outside. Place this chair and other seating items from the Loom Outdoor Collection to create a comfortable conversation area.

Outdoor Decor Ideas: Dine in Style

When you design the perfect outdoor space, don’t forget to take entertaining and dining into account. The right table and chairs will keep your guests comfortable and happy. This outdoor furniture is also a great option if you enjoy sipping on a cup of coffee outside in the morning or simply want to do a little bit of work on your laptop outdoors. The BLU Home Boca Outdoor Dining Table has a round silhouette for cozy and intimate dining. This durable outdoor dining table is made from solid teak wood finished with a solution that speeds up the aging process to create a beautiful, organic silver tone. The natural weathering of the teak will cause it to change in color and texture, giving it a naturally aged patina look. Its large 63-inch diameter provides plenty of room for plates of food, drinks, and snacks.

You can also add a bar table or counter-height table to your patio area. Make sure you include comfortable counter stools or bar stools to compliment the furniture arrangement. Try the beautiful counter stools and bar stools from the BLU Home Loom Outdoor Collection. These stools are available in both indoor and outdoor rated designs and include your choice of height to perfectly sit at your outdoor table. The intricate woven rope design is found across the back and over the frame of the seat. It sits on a sturdy aluminum frame with solid teak wood legs for a natural aesthetic. Enjoy endless hours of comfort with these bar or counter stools thanks to the cushy removable upholstered seat completed in all-weather fabric.

Infuse Your Personality with Outdoor Area Rugs

One of the best outdoor decor ideas is to include a gorgeous area rug and place it under a dining or coffee table. Rugs are a wonderful way to bring more color to a space or to create separation between different areas. Make sure that you choose a durable rug that’s outdoor rated, so it won’t fade in the sun or become damaged once it’s exposed to the weather. Look for beautiful Loloi outdoor rugs that bring bold patterns and lively hues to any patio area. These rugs come in a myriad of styles to complement your furniture and décor. Try the Justina Blakeney Pisolino Rug, boasting an intricate illustrative tropical motif adorned with luscious flora and fauna. Made of 100% polyester pile, this rug comes in vibrant colors to add a lively element to your patio area. It’s easy to clean with a garden hose for quick care.

Loloi outdoor rugs are available in a wide array of designs to suit your taste. The Mika Rug from Loloi is made of power-loomed polyester and polypropylene in Egypt. This stunning rug features an intricate and detailed blend of abstract and tribal-inspired designs made of textured yarn to add dimension to both indoor and outdoor spaces. Each of these rugs is accented with a blanket-stitch finish for added durability and style. Soft ivory and Mediterranean tones of rust and blue make this outdoor rug a gorgeous addition to your patio. If you prefer something subtle in a solid color, try the Loloi Justina Blakeney Rey Rug in ivory and charcoal. This versatile indoor/outdoor rug is hand-woven of 100% polyester by skilled artisans in India. The multicolored yarn and stitching create a subtle, natural striped effect that adds a unique element to your outdoor space.

Don’t Forget the Accents

Outdoor decor ideas don’t just include new lighting, furniture, and rugs. Remember to incorporate some unique pieces that will tie everything together. At Meadow Blu, you’ll find a unique assortment of outdoor décor including mirrors, bookcases, and much more. Try a beautiful outdoor mirror to add brightness and reflection to your patio, like the incredible Lukas Mirror from Made Goods. Crafted of reinforced concrete, it features an unusual shape with subtle touches of raised dots that add texture to the frame. The mirror comes in soft ivory or dark gray finish and includes a D-ring for easy hanging anywhere on your patio.

Planters are another great way to bring a fun touch to your outdoor space. The Made Goods Abria Outdoor Planter features an organic shape for a natural look. This oversized planter is made from layered resin developed for yachts and each piece is completely made by hand. The planter comes in bold, vibrant colors like sunny marigold yellow, warm juniper green, cobalt blue, cherry blossom, and more.
