Monthly Challenge 5. | Expand Your Home by Creating an Outdoor Hangout

Since taking the time to make our outdoor deck more functional and comfortable, we have gotten so much use out of it and I cannot tell you how much value it has brought to our lives! It’s so nice to have an additional space to hang with the family, entertain or enjoy our morning coffee. It has inspired me to make this month’s challenge to create a space outdoors if you don’t have one already, or if you do have one and don’t use it much, think about what you can change about it to make it more inviting!

Our Back Deck Decorating Plans

As much as our beck deck needs a serious makeover, we won’t get around to it this year. We want to do a new layout so it’s a big job that will need to get started early spring (hopefully next year!). But in the meantime we want to enjoy it best we can, so we decided to order some new furniture, replace our light fixtures and custom make some large planter boxes that can house some tall grasses and create a sort of “wall” that will make the space feel cozy and give a sort of backdrop. Stay tuned for how this all comes together! I’ll share progress to our instagram stories, and will share the final result here once it’s done :)

Root and Dwell Monthly Challenge | 4. Add Soul to Your Space

Challenge number 4 is dear to me because it’s one of the characteristics of my design style and what I think brings the spaces I create to life and filled with personality! This month I challenge you to add some soul to your space through vintage item(s). This could be a family heirloom, something from an antique/thrift store, a piece you pick up at a tag sale or Facebook marketplace, or something made out of reclaimed or old materials.
