Natural, fresh plants and flowers are the centrepiece of any summery and cosy outdoor area. They bring colour, life and freshness to the garden or balcony. Here are some ideas on how you can integrate them creatively:
- Vases and planters: use different vases and planters to place flowers and plants on tables, floors or shelves. Playing with different heights and shapes creates a harmonious and interesting overall look.
- Hanging gardens: Plants can also hang beautifully from the ceiling. Hanging baskets or home-made macramé plant holders are ideal for stylishly displaying green plants.
- Herb gardens: Herbs such as basil, rosemary and mint are not only decorative, but also useful in the kitchen. They can be ideally placed in pots or in a small raised bed.
The right decoration makes the difference between a simple outdoor area and an inviting oasis of well-being:
- Garlands and paper lanterns create a festive and cosy atmosphere. Colourful accents in particular create an inviting atmosphere.
- Fairy lights are a must-have for warm summer evenings and conjure up a warm light in your favourite outdoor spot even after the sun has set.
- Tea lights and lanterns create an atmospheric ambience and are particularly effective in the evening hours.
