If you have a balcony, you should make the best out of it. There is a lot of potential use for a small outdoor space attached to the home. However, refurbishing your balcony can be an expensive, difficult and often dangerous undertaking. Alternatively, there are certain design options that require minimum costs and efforts. Therefore, if one doesn’t want to indulge in the herculean task of turning their balconies into a design spectacle, we at Creatalog have your back with some easy and low-effort design options:

1. Floor Pillows for Easy Furniture Alternative

Often it's too much of a hassle to buy separate furniture for your balcony. Bringing in the furniture could be a problem through a small door as well. Therefore, consider investing in throw pillows for an easy solution to the seating problem in the balcony design. The variety of colors and patterns available makes sure you don’t break the theme of your balcony design.

2. Throw in a snug rug

A good compliment to throw pillows is a simple rug to define the conversation space of a balcony. You can even opt for artificial grass rugs to give your balcony design a touch of green freshness. A low coffee table can complete the look and functionality of a small alternate living room. A perfect place for a gathering for a weekend picnic.

3. Decorate with Houseplants

A few low-maintenance (or fake, if you prefer) houseplants is the best way to bring life to your balcony. Just place them around at the corners and/or beside the door. Growing a climber around the grill of your railing is another possibility. If low on space, there are small footprint wall planters available to decorate your balcony walls with, while saving space.

4. Hang a Garden Swing

Nothing says rest and relaxation like a garden swing. It's not a revolutionary idea to hang one in your balcony, but doing so can easily provide you with a fresh new alternative space to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon nap at. Create a comfortable and cozy balcony design with the best value for your money and effort.

5. Throw in some wooden Loungers

If your balcony sports a decent view, a great way to make the best out of it is to throw in a lounger or two. A good alternative to a garden swing and serving the same function, loungers can give your balcony design a more beach-like vibe and give you a solid piece of furniture to relax at. If you already have a garden swing, a pair of loungers can compliment them and create a conversation and gathering space for the family.

6. Balcony BBQ and Picnic Tables

Outdoor barbeque picnics are luxuries often enjoyed only by the people who have large yards. However, with a big enough balcony, you can accommodate a small grill and a picnic table for the family, perfect for those relaxing weekends. However, definitely invest into some fire-safety equipment beforehand.
