One of my favorite things about spring and summer is being able to enjoy a cocktail outside on the patio. I also love a good al fresco dining sitch which is why I am so bummed my current balcony is blah blah blah (literally, there is nothing there). I don’t know what my delay has been but after I moved into my loft almost two years ago, I never really paid  much attention to setting it up. But surprise surprise…I’m now in major loft-makeover mode and my balcony is next on the list. 

 

I’m super excited to be teaming up with At Home to dress up my balcony in time for outdoor happy hours this spring & summer. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing a look into my shopping experience, my haul of goodies and the finished product – so stay tuned! Some of the things I’m looking forward to most are modern + cozy color palettes, cool seating and just an overall chill vibe so I can enjoy a big ole glass of wine on my balcony without having to pull out one of my dining table chairs (smh). 

 

Check out a few of my balcony inspirations below along with some of the items I have my eye on fromAt Home. You can also follow along this weekend as I go on my first shopping expedition on snapchat (lauren_ely)!
