10 Ways to Reuse Your Old Clothes

1.You don’t have to live with the plain balcony floor that’s already there. Jazz it up with an outdoor rug. If you choose one in a green color, you can pretend it’s your own little grassy space where you can kick back and relax anytime you like.

2. You don’t have to stop with an outdoor area rug. Lay out some different textures with a section of white stone. It transforms into the perfect garden area. You can also lay out strips of wood from a pallet. The options are endless!

3. Another way to transform your plain balcony and give yourself a little garden space is to make a pallet garden. It hangs on a wall and is the perfect spot to grow herbs for your kitchen.

4. Even if you don’t think you have enough space for a table and chairs, you actually might. Try a space-saving half round table like this one.

5. The railing is the perfect place to hang flower pots with colorful arrangements in them. It’s amazing how inviting flowers can make a space look and feel!

6. Extra lighting really cozies up a balcony space. Whether you like lanterns, battery-operated candles or strings of lights, it doesn’t matter. The effect is all the same!

7. As long as you have a comfy place to sit, a little greenery and some extra lighting, your balcony is going to be so much better than it was. {Even the cat agrees!}.

A comfy seat, some greenery and string lights are things you need to create an amazing relaxing area.

 

8. This balcony provides extra storage space, but the effect is that it feels more like an extra room in the apartment. You can’t go wrong with that!

A cozy rug and a small table could make your balcony a perfect breakfast nook.

 

9. This balcony is small, but that doesn’t stop it from looking amazing with the addition of small seating pieces and flowers. Don’t forget the comfy pillows and warm blankets that will help you enjoy a bit of a chilly evening.

open balcony is a great idea too

 

10. Lots of color displayed around the space transforms a plain balcony into a work of art.
