Kate’s favorite patio decor
1. plaid rug + hello mat
Layer these two pieces together for instant curb appeal! The plaid rug peeking out from under the cute doormat does wonders for a dull porch or patio.
2. tall urn planter + urn filler flowers
I have two of these planters flanking my front door and I like to change the flowers out based on the season. I love gardening, but I NEVER remember to water whatever is on my front porch... if you're in the same boat, don't be afraid to go faux! As long as you swap them out once in awhile and keep it relatively seasonal, no one will ever know the difference. I know the Grandin Road fillers seem expensive, but they are absolutely gorgeous and can be used over and over again.
3. house numbers
Modern house numbers are a super easy swap to update the look of your house. These bring a clean, fresh look and make your house number easy to read from a distance. They come with hardware for installation.
4. lounge chairs + bright stripes pillow set
Pair these west elm lounge chairs with these striped colorful pillows for a bright, happy spot that makes you want to sit down and enjoy the sun.
5. watercolor outdoor plates + acrylic glasses
My favorite part of having warmer weather is being able to invite friends over for a glass of wine or an easy grilled dinner on the back deck. These acrylic dishes and textured "glass"ware make it easy to look totally pulled together and styled (and also means no one will break your dishes!). Crate & Barrel has a lot of cute acrylic dishes that can be mixed and matched to make your own spring look.
6. ceramic planter
I tend to take better care of real flowers on my back deck than on my front porch. These pretty ceramic planters are a great way to dress up a blah space and also show off some colorful annuals. (If you aren't into gardening, you can always put fake greenery/flowers in here too!)
7. solar lanterns
I often forget to bring out the matches when we’re sitting outside — or the wind is too strong to have candles going. These portable solar lanterns are the perfect way to have a little glow while you're eating or hanging out, without having to fuss with a flame.
