Affordable Ideas For Updating Your Patio

The patio is an outdoor extension of your home and the place where you unwind; however, not all patios are created equal. Get affordable ideas for updating your patio in this Lowe’s video:

Here are several ways to transform your patio into a magical gathering spot:

1. A plain concrete slab is a great foundation to build on. Personalize your patio by painting a pattern on it.

2. Add new seating like a bistro set – then just add the wine and cheese.

3. Plants provide color and texture and soften the edges of your outdoor room. Hang them or put them around the perimeter. Add a small tree or palm for privacy.

4. Lights create a soothing atmosphere and enhance safety. Torch lights give off a natural glow while string lights create a festive feeling. Going solar will help you save on electricity, wiring and money.
