A Picture Gallery to Inspire Your Small-Space Yards

A patio getaway is created by placing two white-painted wood Adirondack chairs in a corner near the door. Colorful indoor/outdoor fabric cushions and pillows and some coordinating accent pieces give this nook a homey, outdoor-room appeal. A basket of persimmons picks up the color of the beautiful cushions and pillows. While the tables aren't from the same "set" as the chairs, a fresh coat of white paint ties everything together.

Actually, mix-matching is what makes the setting so charming and casual.
