Decorating Ideas For A Georgian Patio

What could be more delightful that whiling away a sunny Saturday afternoon in the

comfort of your glass enclosed Georgian patio? A gentle breeze sighs through the foliage of the black walnut and tupelo trees that dot the expanse of an immaculately manicured lawn. Standard bred horses graze in the adjoining pasture and the humming cadence of bees drifts from the honeysuckle vines that blanket the garden fence.

A Georgian patio is great addition to a home's structure. An area providing a glimpse of the outdoors while still linked indoors can be a special stress-buster place. Nowadays, Georgian patios are marked with tempered glass and air-conditioning. Still the same, the ambiance of nature makes this space an ideal place to relax and enjoy the sights far beyond the four corners of the house.

Enclosed Georgian patios offer a decorating venue to accommodate any taste. Wicker and rattan furniture with brightly patterned cushions are often selected but fine walnut and maple rockers and settees are also appropriate. Refinishing the existing house siding can offer a rough hewn backdrop to an elegant motif. If your landscaping is heavily arboreal, consider a light pastel palette for cushions and walls, and warm walnut or oak tones for the supporting furniture frames. Weather damage is never a worry; overstuffed cushions and large fluffy pillows are definitely indicated for the comfortable Georgian porch setting.

If the original wooden floor of your patio is in restorable condition, then do so. Consider two or three heavy-fibered area rugs, around which to group furniture and to provide balance. Light colored rugs with intricate woven patterns provide visual interest and they are a durable solution to high traffic areas. Indoor-outdoor is no longer synonymous with ugly, and there are many beautiful rugs made from natural fibers such as bamboo or sisal to grace your Georgian Patio.

The patio will benefit too from flowers and plants. Extend the beauty of the garden to this place as well. A row of potted plants, a vase full of colorful flowers placed on a table and hanging plants give an effortless beauty to the patio. Outside looking in or inside looking out will both be a pleasant experience of being one with nature.

Decorating should not only be aimed at making the patio a real beauty at daytime. Make it a charming place for nighttime as well. Recessed lighting will give an intimate glow and window blinds will add to the decorative essentials. Furthermore, the window blinds will make a too bright sunshine on a summer day bearable to continue lazing around.

Select wall hangings that contrast, but with a suggestion of the main palette in frame or context. The best interior decorations are built on two or three complementary tones, punctuated with splashes of vibrant color. Vases and figurines should be used sparingly and chosen to offer contrast in tone to the overall color scheme.
