5 Must Haves For A Cozy Outdoor Space

Styling smaller spaces can sometimes be challenging to squeeze in all the things you want, especially on a smaller budget, so here are my top 5 must haves for a cozy outdoor space that makes sense all year long.

A washable rug is my number one must, especially if you have kids and/or pets - I have both, and messes happen a lot! Just toss it in the wash and it's good to go. For smaller spaces, ottomans that double as drink tables can save you space and money. Adding some greenery (real or faux) creates an inviting environment - faux plants work great if you don't have a green thumb! Seating of some kind - I have had this sectional for years, and can reconfigure the layout in so many different ways. Lastly, mood lighting! I looove string lights - they're budget friendly, all weather resistant, and create such a cozy vibe.
