Stylish Backyard Upgrades for Modern Homeowners

If your backyard has been looking more like a health hazard than a fun space to hang out in – you don’t have to throw in the towel and put yellow tape around it telling people not to go out there. All you need is to get clever and creative and upgrade it to the sort of place you want to hang out and entertain. And thankfully, that process is pretty simple – especially if you have this guide and a can-do attitude!
Spruce Up Your Hot Tub with Accessories
What says luxury more than a hot tub? Not a lot in our opinions! But you do not have to stop with the hot tub itself. Some super cool hot tub accessories just may make that outdoor oasis the yard everyone in the neighborhood envies. Consider a fun light for nighttime, some fluffy towels in the contemporary basket, or that outdoor rug you have been looking for. And perhaps that tropical drink tray and some uniting candles. Also, the neighbors are going to be green!
Create an Outdoor Kitchen Paradise
Who says you have to keep your good cooking indoors? A great outdoor kitchen is on the wish list of so many homeowners, so enjoy that space with an amazing grill, nice counter space and comfy seating. Think of the BBQs you can have next summer, or that lovely dinner outside under the stars. Stick in some fun storage area for all those utensils and plates, and some fabulous lighting… and let’s just say things are looking up. You’ve never had it so good (and neither have your guests)!
Install a Fire Pit for Cozy Gatherings
A fire pit is a must-have in your fancy backyard, don’t you think? We do! Hello…ton-o-atmosphere! Everyone can sit around and roast hot dogs and channel old memories. Or, you know, do stuff like pass a drink to that person over there unobtrusively (conversation blocks of fire!) The style to go with is one of them modern looks (a round stone thingy or even a space age-y metal one) and then stick it between some up to date seating (loungers are chairs ok, we dig it. ) Funk it up with a couple of fur blankets on the ground and bazinga! Time to roast marrr-shmelllows till we grow really long arms and high-five the moon.
Upgrade Your Landscaping
Landscaping isn’t just for flowers and trees. Your backyard can look fresh and clean with landscaping ideas that will make you feel like a king. Use native plants, simple pavers or gravel for a wandering path, and current vertical designs. Add more texture and smoothing layers to the yard. You can even showcase neat pictures or designs of outdoor artwork for decoration. Sometimes less is more!!
Add a Modern Pergola
For your outdoor shade or shelter design, try a modern pergola cover for your backyard. It’s the latest design craze and is easy on the eyes. Not only can you get a modern and hip hiding place for your backyard, but you can use it to shield yourself from the sun’s harmful rays, or from getting rained on. Add string lights over the top to give it a nighttime glow, or let some vines climb for a warm and relaxing additional benefit. Set up some outdoor patio design furniture and call it a day!
Get Creative with Outdoor Lighting
Lighting can really set the mood for your space! Make your backyard look that much better with some chic lighting. From current pathway lights, to string lights, and to cute lanterns! Gorg lighting will really help set the tone and feel of your backyard. Just think, the sun is setting on your gorgeous and now lighted backyard. You have the ideal backyard now, it’s the perfect place to hang out and have more friends over.
