If you are looking to create a space in your garden where you can gather with family and friends this summer, consider the gazebo! Pergolas, verandas and solariums are also excellent choices for enjoying the weather while being protected from the sun, insects and bad weather. Don’t know where to start? Follow our tips to create an inviting outdoor decor in your gazebo…
1- Pergola plants
Have you considered adding outdoor patio plants in large planters for a natural plant division? It’s so easy to use them in order to have a greener balcony. If your gazebo ceilings are high, showcase them! You could take advantage of the vertical space you have by placing your plants high up. Put them in a hanging pot or use climbing ivy to enhance the columns or roof of your gazebo. Hanging flower baskets can also be a great way to add color to your outdoor patio.

2- Gazebo lights
For those long summer evenings when you’ll be outside later than usual, you should consider hanging a string of lights, an outdoor light fixture or some pretty lanterns. They will light up your space and bring a warm glow to your outdoor relaxation area. Let your creativity flow by installing several lanterns side by side at different heights with flameless candles to create a beautiful outdoor setting!

3- Pergola privacy screens
Surround yourself with a carefree green screen with artificial hedges ! It’s so easy to use plant panels to decorate a porch…just tie them down with a few plastic ties. Trellises allow you to add texture to otherwise monotonous structures, think of them as organic curtains! Just complement the decor with other plants and flowers for a nice reminder of your privacy panels.

4- Garden accents
Accessorize your deck with a few outdoor decorative items sparingly! For example, outdoor cushions will bring unique colors, patterns and accents to your garden sofa. It can also be small boxwood balls, as well as outdoor statuettes (like a Zen Buddha head) placed here and there on your porch. Don’t forget to install beautiful curtains to your pergola in shades of white or cream! The choices are endless when it comes to yard and garden decor…

5- Cedar hedge
Another easy way to add greenery, to a yard which lacks natural plants and vegetation, is to install artificial cedars! In addition to decorating your porch, they will create a visual barrier, especially if used on a balcony to hide from the neighbors. Place them near the columns of your gazebo to camouflage them well, thanks to their fir branches.
