Patios That Pop with Color!

After planting all of the new plants you picked up from your local plant nursery, you deserve to chill and relax. If all you have is one patio chair, consider creating a "rest" area in your garden.  

Although ornate iron benches do look lovely in your butterfly garden, they do nothing for your back. Its not just your back, but perhaps your feet are soar too? Heck, everything hurts when you have been gardening all day. Wouldn't it be nice to sink into a comfy couch, chair, bed, lounge, hammock, or anything that lends itself to supreme relaxation? Indeed.     


I hope by now you are considering the idea of a backyard "rest" area. If you are, consider one more thing. Consider making it colorful. Cheerful colors can certainly lift your spirits and make you feel refreshed. Patios that pop with color are inviting to the eye and spirit. 


You don't have to go all out "carnival color crazy" since just a little bit of color used in the right spot will do the trick. It's easy to grab a few colorful pillows and plop them on your garden lounge chair. So you don't want to buy colorful pillows for your garden lounge chair? No problem, paint your garden lounge chair instead.








For Inspiration - Here are a few colorful patios that pop with color.
