Upgrade outdoor space for yourself or potential buyers?

Many homeowners might spend alot of money to upgrade right before their property goes on the market. Why not upgrade the space few years before your house goes on the market. You might be able to stage homes with beautiful furnitures few weeks prior to listing your home but it takes sometimes for outdoor space to be filled with healthy plants. Although spring has sprung, and the smell of summer is in the air, the temperature is gradually getting hotter. Now is the perfect time to decorate our outdoor backyard.  Start planting now & let us take care of staging your outdoor space later! 

If you are planning to keep your home for awhile, here's our recommendation when its come to choosing the right outdoor furnitures;
1.   Minimize direct sunlight
Is the furniture placed on soft grass or hard ground? If your furniture is placed on soft grass, do not use any furniture made of cork as cork absorbs water, which will easily damage the furniture structure. Again, the long exposure to the sun also tends to shorten the life of your furniture. If you’re outdoors has plenty of direct sunlight, a sunshade is the perfect choice. Sunshade protects you and your family from direct sunlight as well as shielding your furniture from damages.

2.  Positioning determines the material
Any furniture that is left outdoors for a long time should bear the burden of wind, rain and scorch sun. So, you must be prepared for deformation and discoloration of outdoor furniture. Aluminum and wicker furniture are your best choices. This kind of furniture has been made of tolerant materials is not easy to be affected by nature and can maximize the length of its life.

​3.  Multi-function is better
A few wooden chairs can be placed in the small outdoor area, which can serve as both sitting and eating when needed. When they’re not in use, easily translate them into a flowerbed. Even on non-summer days when the temperature gets cooler, you can add life to your furniture by putting them away in a garage or storage area. Foldable furniture will suit you better if you have limited storage space.

4.  Bright color matching
When buying outdoor furniture, it’s typical that everybody will choose the color closest to nature. For example, a black wicker or natural lumber. But if you want to make your outdoor area more colorful, adding a few flowers and plants can be the highlight of your outdoor area.
​Outdoor furniture adds comfortable functions to your outdoor activities, making your outdoor a multi-functional activity place. In warm weather, the outdoor perfectly connects your life with nature. Don’t neglect the outdoor opportunities that the patio offers. They complement your house, making it more attractive and enriching your lifestyle.
