These Patio Furniture Ideas Will Transform Your Small Outdoor Space
With all the craziness going on in the world, the arrival of spring didn't receive its usual hype. But while we're safely sheltering in place, one thing we actually can do is spend some time in the increasingly warm fresh air. Walks and jogs can help get the job done, but it's also not a bad idea to clock some of your many sitting hours outdoors among the sun and trees.
Whether you have a small balcony or an overflowing garden patio, there are a ton of cute and comfy furniture options that are sure to get you outside. Below, we've rounded up ten stellar seating options for small outdoor spaces to upgrade your time at home.
1. Urban Outfitters Uma Outdoor Coffee Table, $499
Work or chill with a friend with this nifty extendable table. The slatted tabletop is made from two pieces that easily lift out and rise to help during work hours or lunchtime and fit back into place for a more traditional look when needed.
2. Christopher Knight Santa Monica Outdoor 3-Piece Bistro Chat Set, $183.59
This little bistro set is ideal for dining al fresco. It includes two metal chairs and an oval-shaped table that occupies minimal space. The matte coral finish is bright, kitschy, and mood-boosting.
