Pretty Ideas to Deck up your Balcony

Your balcony is a place, you so fondly adore. And you have all the good reasons for the same. You can breathe in fresh air or soak up sunlight, without having to leave your apartment. Be it enjoying the solitude with your favourite book or inviting over friends for chitchat, balconies are a perfect spot. There are endless ideas to decorate your balcony. With a pinch of creativity and cheerful colours, it’s now time to add a life to that abandoned corner of your home.

Artificial Flooring
Since balconies require considerably small space, you can opt for theme-based flooring, suiting your taste and the climate. For instance, you can opt for the artificial grass rugs. This will, on one hand, give a semblance of nature’s feel plus limit your cost and upkeep hassles of a real garden.

Furnish it fabulously
It is best to use flexibly smart furniture in the balcony. This way you can accommodate more people at times or enjoy a generous space while being on yourself. Folding chairs or compact mattresses can be used. If the space allows, fix a comfortable swing in your balcony to lay back and relax on weekends or enjoy your morning coffee. Furnish  with trendy cushions in multiple forms, sizes and colours.

Essentials
Make sure that the seating arrangement is weather-proof. Don’t let sun beams ruin your plants or furniture. It’s fundamental to provide shade for your balcony during the scorching summers. You can use soothingly coloured drapes or curtains to filter sunlight.

Decorating options
To accessorise the balcony space, the best option is to use plants. A balcony is certainly incomplete without the green. You can use as much plants and flowers as possible, still they will never look overly stuffed. Beautiful and bright plant pots in unique shapes and springy colours will add an outdoor garden feel to your balcony. These can be vertically hanged on the walls or kept in line along the railing. You can even keep the plants in hanging bird cages.
