If you have a pergola in your backyard, or you’re dreaming of having one… Then this blog post is for you. Pergolas are the main attraction for any aussie backyard and can be envy of the neighborhood. Instead of leaving it up to the architect to design your pergola, you can, later on, add some tidbits here and there to customize it.

In this post, we will show you how you can enhance the beauty of your pergola in these different, easy and affordable ways.

Climbing plants and a canopy of vines

For a beautiful and inviting pergola, use climbing plants and flowy vines to cover the roof of your pergola. Plants are inexpensive, don’t require much maintenance, and can easily light up any place with a touch here and there.

String lights and lanterns

For a cozy vibe and a pergola that will become the center of attraction in the whole neighborhood, we suggest you light it up. String lights, fairy lights, and lanterns are ideal for a romantic feel. You can use paper lanterns instead of the traditional ones to give it a modern touch.

You can use minimum soft lightening or add multiple strings of fairy lights to add more energy. Your Boho inspired pergola will become the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day.

Suitable Patio Furniture

Any pergola is incomplete without suitable patio furniture. there are many outdoor furniture themes to choose from when making a choice. You can buy minimal, elegant furniture, or more theme based contemporary pieces according to your taste. Choose something that can withstand the effects of weather, rainfall, storm, and heat.

Add Outdoor Blinds

Outdoor blinds can add privacy to your pergola so you can enjoy your space without worrying about prying eyes. Choose a sturdy and durable fabric with your choice of colour to suit your home’s facade. Depending on your budget, you can install manually adjustable blinds, or you can install blinds controlled by a remote control. There is something available for every budget.
