Inspiring Outdoor Spaces

Southern Living's Outdoor Spaces can be truly inspiring. Take a closer look at some of the elements added to each outdoor space and you will find entertaining outdoors is much easier than you think! Candles are a great substitute in fireplaces and around mantels. A large group of small candles will sparkle but not heat - great for summer time festivities or in climates that don't get too cold.



The lone fireplace might seem out of place but by adding furniture and extra sitting areas you can make any fireplace the perfect place to gather. A stand alone fireplace can accommodate smaller groups as well as large groups of people.


Outdoor kitchens are very popular and may people are taking pool houses and sheds and creating an amazing space for you and your family. A rooftop can make all the difference. This space might be outdoors but feels like a living room because of the large rug and pillows.



Bring the inside out by taking accessories that are in your home and placing them around your outdoor fireplace or table. Paintings, pottery, flowers and pillows add the comfort of home to any space outside.



When in doubt add some greenery. Potted plants in all shades give a garden look to porches and decks. Surround your outdoor furniture with flowers and large greenery - you can cover up fading wicker or simply add color.




This outdoor space has greenery and some comforts of home. What makes this space extra entertaining are the speakers. Look closely and you'll find that a sound system was installed that blends into the decor.
