Sometimes, cards and flowers just aren’t enough to show Mom how much you care. So, instead of buying her brunch or chocolates this Mother’s Day, why not give her a gift she’ll enjoy all spring and summer long! Celebrate Mother’s Day by transforming her backyard space into a private oasis using these outdoor deck ideas:
Outdoor Lighting:
Adding light features to your mom’s outdoor deck or patio area is a great way to enhance its curb appeal and seasonal use. It also improves safety at night and creates the perfect ambience for entertaining friends and family or star gazing. From stylish lanterns and Tiki Torches to the installation of step lights or wall sconces, adding custom deck lighting to your mom’s outdoor living space is sure to illuminate her Mother’s Day weekend!
Trellises:
If your mom’s hobbies include planting and gardening, consider the benefits of a garden trellis. Trellises create beautiful accent pieces and offer additional privacy to your outdoor space. They’re made from a variety of materials, including wood, wrought iron, or wire, and when installed correctly, they can support vines, small trees, and fresh vegetables. Whether you decide to build one yourself or have a professional design it, it’s important to determine the best location for installation to ensure vines and plants receive proper sunlight and protection, as well as which materials will support the type of plants she may want to grow.
Pergolas:
Elegant in style and a unique way to introduce natural shading and privacy to the outdoors, pergolas make a stunning addition to any deck, backyard, or garden area. Unlike canopies or outdoor umbrellas that require maintenance or removal before a storm, outdoor pergolas are built to weather seasonal changes and create attractive architectural dimensions that enhance the value of your home. At Uglydeck.com, we offer professional outdoor pergola design and construction to build you (or your mom) a custom pergola that fits your lifestyle and budget. Our vinyl pergola kits are designed to withstand high winds and extreme weather conditions, and unlike a traditional wooden pergola, it never rots, fades, or discolors, so it always looks its best, no matter the time of year.
