There are many accents you can add to your outdoor living space that will bring a touch of charm and beauty. A popular accent is an old-fashioned sundial. This accent returns to the Tudor gardens and will add a sentimental and practical touch to your setting! A sundial is a wonderful feature to place in a sunny spot, and enjoy finding the time in this traditional way.
A birdbath is a lovely addition to your living space. These features are as beautiful as small fountains, and so much can be said for their necessity. A birdbath not only adds a focal point to your setting but also creates a soothing oasis for your favorite feathery friends. Enjoy the beautiful and whimsical birds that it will bring into your room, and enjoy watching them dance and frolic in the cool, clear water!
Birdbaths on pedestals are considered ideal. Birds will want to visit these, as cats or other animals of prey cannot reach them. Birds are attracted to raised objects, and when filled with water in the summer, they can be used as feeders in the winter months. Consider placing the birdbath near trees or shrubs that produce berries that birds like to eat.
Many figures are relatively inexpensive and will add a charming touch to your garden setting. You can find these figurines in terra cotta and cast stone, and by adding them to a special place in your outdoor room, you will add a delightful viewpoint. Place one at the end of a pathway as a welcoming greeting!
Incorporating a figure is a great idea if your outdoor room has a pool! A small fountain with a figurine will add a beautiful and enchanting touch to your space, as well as an attractive and picturesque view.
Vases and urns can also add a livable touch to your setting. These work as ornamental items or can be filled with beautiful foliage to create a wonderful focal point. Be careful how and where you place your containers, as you do not want them to be ostentatious. They should, instead, complement your décor. Whether placed on a side of your steps, on a pool coping, or on a terrace that overlooks the outdoor room, these elements can add a stunning touch to your setting!
Urns and vases can be purchased in many materials, like cast stone and pottery, and in every shape and color. You should select these elements as carefully as you would for your indoor spaces. Achieving your livable touch is done just as you make your home livable and comfortable. You have achieved the livable touch as you add these features that make you comfortable and want to spend time in the outdoor room!
