Check out these great ideas on transforming your patio into a fancy living space without much of an effort. If you are busy with work like me, or have a family, time is tight. Nevertheless, we are looking for ways to improve our environment, or livestyle, little things that make our live easier or more exciting.
Look at this adjustable tray for example. It attaches to a bannister or railing and can be folded up and put away easily when not in use. There is just enough space for 2 plates and 2 glasses, so you may occasionally use it as a patio table for a lunch or dinner. Perfect for a condo balcony or terrace. Best part – only 20 bucks on Houzz!
In case you have a bit more space on your deck or patio, a larger table will be more suitable. Let's say you have an L-shape outdoor sofa set, or you are minimalist and only use pillows to sit on. This monolithic coffee table will make you happy either way. The uber-cool design is perfectly round and features a concrete finish. The integrated bowl can be used as an ice bucket, which will come in handy when making those delicious cocktails. Not sure how many of those you will have to consume in order to get rid of the pain from sitting on the floor or to recover from the hole in your wallet – $1500.
On the outdoor furniture front, there is this adaptation of an adirondack chair for one. Fewer but wider planks than with a normal Muskoka chair make it look almost like out of a children's book. Adjusting the angle of the front and back legs turns it into a very interesting design piece. A simplified version of a Muskoka chair, but with the same comfort level. 100% recyclable and made from recycled plastics this is the perfect environmental choice. Pricetag is around $550.
Another trendy patio furniture idea comes along with this outdoor swing. The frame is made from steel with the sitting area made from reclaimed wood. Got an old barrel that's no longer useful? Turn it into this patio swing, a great do-it-yourself task. What you will need though is a strong tree to hold it up. If you are not quite that handy and fear your legs and bottoms might look like a porcupine from all the splinters, there are always the nice and comfortable sets from Velago Patio Furniture.
