How to create a backyard oasis

The warm weather is upon us! It's time for outdoor fun like grilling and lounging in the comfort of your own home. You have seen the picture perfect patios and dream decks, and now you want to create your own backyard oasis. So how do you make your backyard space feel like a getaway? 
First define the space you want to work with and think of it as another room in your home that you are decorating. You will need seating, dining, lighting and entertainment elements and decor. 

Comfort

The whole point of creating this outdoor space is for you to sit, relax and have your own getaway just a few steps from your house. When looking for outdoor furniture, test them out and make sure you feel comfortable. In addition to seating, you will want an outdoor dining table if you're planning on grilling and eating in your backyard haven. Make sure the table you select is large enough for you and your family and a few guests if you plan on enjoying your backyard oasis with friends.

Fun

Once you have your outdoor furniture, its time to decorate! Add textures, prints and colors! Get throw pillows and an outdoor rug to make your outdoor area feel like home. Add greenery and fun decor pieces such as gnomes or cute outdoor signs. Get outdoor string lights to add the special touch of warmth and coziness. Add an outdoor fireplace or firepit which is not only great for a night of s'mores, but it also gives you a reason to spend time in your outdoor oasis, in the cold fall and winter nights. Think of other things you want to do in your outdoor space besides dine and lounge, maybe you want to have outdoor games for your family and guests. Corn hole is a popular and fun game for all ages that is a great addition to any backyard.
