On Friday we shared a peek at our new outdoor seating area that partnered with Wayfair on and today we are going to share more images, many of which have a lot more pink in them thanks to my girls who love pink lemonade! Even though I prefer the more neutral look from Friday it’s fun to add some color out here too with just the addition of some fresh flowers, pink lemonade and cupcakes. And we could easily add in some more colorful pillows as well!
As we mentioned on Friday, the first thing we did was choose our seating. We absolutely loved the look and functionality of this Montclair Wicker Sofa and Montclair Wicker Chairs. We have been thrilled with them and love how they blend in so nicely with the whole wooded area around us and go perfectly with the Felicia Outdoor Fireplace.
The fireplace is one of my favorite pieces we’ve added to any space! I not only love how nice it looks but I am also impressed with how great the quality of it is – it is so heavy!!!!! We have been using is almost every single night since we got this area set up – it’s so relaxing and peaceful sitting out here. I love just sitting out here and the girls have been reading out here and Lillie’s even done her homework out here a couple of evenings. And of course their favorite part is roasting marshmallows and making s’mores.
The girls love having pink lemonade and fun pink striped straws. And of course it’s fun to have cupcakes out here too!
We love the idea of using our Montgomery tray out here. It makes it easy carrying a bunch of stuff at once (although I removed the vase of flowers first because that weighs so much that it’s hard enough just carrying that by itself – ha!)
We found some fun black and white plates that work well out here and we’ve used this tray several nights to load our s’mores supplies up on to carry back and forth from the kitchen. Trays can be so functional as well as pretty in settings like this.
We also added a rug to help define the space while we decide what type of patio surface we’d like to put down here. I like how the rug looks out here and it’s a very durable outdoor style but I am still a bit unsure it will actually last out here in the elements. So far it’s worked wonderfully but if it starts to show a lot of wear I may move it up to our porch. But until we can decide what type of surface we’d like to put down it works wonderfully! And then we added some fun outdoor side tables and our old coffee table to help add to the function of the space.

It looks so good! Love that you added a fireplace – something I'd love to do! And I couldn't agree more- there is nothing like white lights – they are magical! You did a wonderful job:)

Oh that is simply magical looking!
This is stunning and cozy all in one! Perfection!
I agree with Amy…magical and enchanting. Love the fireplace!
So so pretty!!! I would love to copy your vines and lights on the trellis. Just magical! (Did you also have a real vine growing amongst the grapevine? Or that's what it looks like the vine is.) Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you! They have pink jasmine and wisteria on the trellis.

Wow! What an amazing backyard. I love what you have done with your outdoor "room". Thank you for sharing what items you used. I will look into them when I remodel my backyard. I agree with ruralmom that the trellis looks great. The string lights definitely add to the ambiance in the evenings.
