Having a balcony space in your apartment is considered a luxury in today's times! Especially in urban areas, where space crunch is the prime concern, if you are blessed with a balcony (no matter the size), ensure to utilize it to the fullest.

And no, at no cost you should use the balcony space for keeping scraps or unwanted objects. A balcony space has all the potential to become a hangout zone or 'me' zone where you can start your day with a hot tea or relax after a demanding day.

What's more? You can add a luxurious vibe to the balcony without making much effort! We have listed 6 easy-to-do decor tips that are perfect to create a plush and inviting balcony space in your home:

Include Outdoor Furniture

Based on the balcony size, you can select and include the essential outdoor furniture in the same. For instance, in a compact balcony space, a foldable table and chair set, set of poufs, or floor cushions will serve as the practical seating solution. Whereas a spacious balcony space can be accentuated with an outdoor sofa setting or a swing and chair combo. Apart from the seating, a side table makes a necessary addition to hold your coffee mug, books, ashtray or just about anything!

Add a Drama with Soft Furnishings

The balcony outdoor seating i.e. couch, daybed, accent chairs, or a swing can be layered and elevated with attractive accent cushions. Pick cushion covers made of materials and fabrics that are moisture and fade-resistant. This will ensure you have a balcony space that is colour, pattern, and decor enriched! And if colourful soft furnishings is not your preference, then prefer soft furnishings with textured detailing!

Illuminate the Balcony

During the daytime, bright sunlight will serve as the free natural light source for the balcony. But what about after the sun sets down? The balcony requires both natural and artificial light sources. For that, you need to include ambient light with either ceiling recessed lights or a chandelier. If you prefer to read on the balcony, then adding a table lamp or floor lamp on the side table will serve the purpose. And for accent lights, you can go for trendy wall sconces, string lights, or trendy pendants. Finally, the attractive candles are ideal to set the required mood and add a hint of a glam vibe. Note that, include the number of lights based on the size of the balcony space.

Place a Rug

Just like your living room or bedroom, the balcony setup requires a full-fledged design and decor outlook. That's why it is essential to add an area rug or runner to this dedicated balcony space. Opt for a rug that includes basic features like fade, stain, and moisture resistance. Ideally, go for a busy pattern rug that hides the stains pretty well. Make sure to vacuum the balcony rug whenever you clean the rugs in other areas of your home!

Add Decor Objects

If you plan to create a mini garden on your balcony, then you can place nature or farm-inspired animal mini sculptures juxtaposed with plants. The walls can be defined with attractive art prints, DIY frames, tribal masks, and more. The balcony table surfaces can be made attractive with mini succulents, decor trays, mini curios, or books. If the space prevails, a floor light with an offbeat design will also serve well as a conversation starter piece for your balcony.

Keep it Clean and Sorted

After you are done adding the balcony decor essentials as per your need or requirements, the final step is to keep up with its fabulous look. It is crucial to keep your balcony clean and sorted all the time. Avoid placing any junk or unwanted items in the corner at all costs. Any sort of dust, stains, cobwebs, etc should be removed immediately. Maintain the indoor plants well to keep the balcony looking fresh, fabulous, and inspirational!
