Selena Gomez's cozy outdoor chairs make an appearance in the star's latest Instagram photo dump, and now we have a hankering for afternoons on the balcony with a good book and a delicious drink.
Though we haven't gotten an official taste of spring just yet, we're already yearning for time outside. Let's seize the opportunity to get our space ready for the season ahead and prepare for moments spent (safely) soaking up some much-needed vitamin D.
If you were searching for outdoor spring decor ideas, Sel's little seating space will get the creative juices flowing.
Who wouldn't want to kick back in Selena Gomez's outdoor chairs?
In between filming and spending time with friends, Selena is photographed kicking back in a small backyard, and now we're trying to spice up our own outdoor space. Hibernation is over, folks.
Whether you're working with small balcony ideas or have some backyard space to call your own, it's important to create a place where you can decompress. In conversation with Real Homes' Eve Smallman, designer Nina Lichtenstein reveals how to set up an outdoor sanctuary.
"Create cozy corners for relaxation with hammocks, swing chairs, or outdoor nooks furnished with comfortable seating," she tells Eve.
Just like you would a living room or bedroom, make sure to accent the space with cozy details like throw pillows.
"Opt for hues inspired by the season, such as soft pastels or bold florals, to create a welcoming space," she adds.
Room Essentials' Calendula Floral Square Outdoor Throw Pillow (17" x 17") at Target or the Bright Abstract Jungle Indoor Outdoor Throw Pillow (18" x 18") at World Market make fun statements and budget backyard ideas that transform your space on a budget.
When Nina Lichtenstein designs a home, it is more than just a house. It is a haven. One tailored to a family's distinctive tastes, daily rituals, special gatherings, and long-term dreams. It is a nest from which to launch lives and make memories for generations to come. Her use of diverse textures and elegant blends of stone, wood, and other natural materials are part of her signature style.
