Wrought iron chairs and plants like lavender – it’s enough to change just a few little things on the balcony to give it Italian charm.
In addition to delicious food, for many people Italy is associated with cobbled streets and cute balconies with colorful flowers peeking out.
If you like this style, you can turn your balcony into a “little Italy” with just a few small things.
Four details that will help you bring the charm of Italy to the balcony:
Mediterranean plants
When it comes to plants and flowers, it’s important to choose something that you would find in Italy, that is, that grows there.
Italians love fresh spices, so if you have space, plant basil or mint that you can also use in the kitchen.
Decorations with stripes
To really capture the Italian charm, add white striped items like cushions.
You will achieve a similar effect only if you put a curtain with stripes.
Give preference to combinations with white and a striking color, such as red or yellow.
Light bulbs
Instead of a single lamp, decorate the balcony with small string lights that create a really cozy atmosphere.
Wrought iron furniture
If you plan to buy new furniture for the balcony, then choose wrought iron chairs and tables.
