I came across this great patio on Apartment Therapy and wanted to share it with you all. I truly love everything on this patio and think it all works so well together, even for such a small space.
The wood fence lends a backyard feel, which might be hard to recreate for most condo balconies, but here are a few suggestions on how to get this look.
Start with a fun outdoor rug like one of these from Ikea and West Elm.
From left: Ikea, $20; Ikea, $25; West Elm, $20.
Then, pick out your chairs. Remember that wicker can always be spray-painted to add a pop of colour and personal style to the patio.
From left: Ikea, $90; Ikea, $60; Ikea, $100.
You'll need a place to put those drinks down on a hot summer day, so try one of these round tables.
Clockwise from top left: West Elm, $140; Crate & Barrel, $44 (on sale); West Elm, $84.
To finish everything off, accessorize! And don't be afraid of colour.
From left: West Elm, $24-40; Ikea, $16.
Clockwise from top left: Crate & Barrel, $11; Ikea, $25; Ikea, $20.
If you're concerned about nosy neighbours — or wind and sun — try these privacy shields for added protection. Ikea, $15.
