As the weather begins to chill and leaves begin to fall, we crave the comforting warmth of our spas. It’s easy to transition your patio to match the changing season for some extra fall flare. Here’s a few ideas how to can decorate your spa area for autumn;
Flowers
Flowers are one of the easiest ways to add some vibrancy to your backyard. Head over to your local garden center and pick out a few red, orange, or yellow flowers to match the hues of the falling leaves. These are great low-maintenance options:
Perennial Sunflower – Sunflowers are one of the staples of the fall season! These flowers like full sun and well-drained soil, so if you live in a warmer climate, these flowers are the perfect addition to your backyard!
Helenium – Helenium plants have vibrant yellow, orange, and red blossoms. These flowers are one of the easiest to grow flower varieties, which means that you can spend less time tending to them — leaving more time for you to relax in the spa!
Mums – Mums are another easy-to-grow flower that can be found at almost every garden center during the fall season. These full plants look great in the planters of your storage steps and planters set. Mums tend to have a hardy growth, meaning that your backyard will be filled with the hues of autumn brilliance!
Pumpkins and Gourds
Pumpkins aren’t just for jack-o-lanterns! If you’re in the mood for an easy DIY project, try creating a homemade pumpkin flowerpot! The steps for this design are as easy as carving out the center of a pumpkin to the size of a flower pot and placing a potted plant inside! After you hollow out the pumpkin, make sure to save the seeds and you can roast them in the oven later for a tasty, healthy snack
Throw Blankets and Pillows
The change in season can be the perfect reminder to change out the patio pillows and throws. Next time you’re out shopping, look for a few plaid throw blankets or pillows to toss over your patio seating and give the feeling of autumn warmth surrounding your home.
