<\/a>Photo:\u00a0The Residences at Mandarin Oriental\/Flickr<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/p>\nSpring is in full bloom (seriously, pass the antihistamine) and as the days grow longer, we\u2019re starting to spend more time outdoors. Why not spruce up your backyard or balcony with stylish accessories and decor? Here we\u2019ve rounded up 13 items that will make patio season more enjoyable for all.<\/span><\/p>\n The Azure Text Diamond outdoor rug from Smith & Hawken is weather, stain and fade resistant. Use it to add color and texture to your patio, or bring it inside to protect spill-prone areas.<\/span><\/p>\n Are these the most adorable string lights EVER? We certainly think so. Each tiny mason jar is filled with five micro-LED lights that glow like fireflies.<\/span><\/p>\n If you don\u2019t have these for your next barbecue you may as well cancel it! These reusable BPA-free plastic plates are the greatest invention of the 21st century. <\/span><\/p>\n Transform an ordinary condo balcony into an urban jungle. Hang the flower box and plant pots from a balcony rail to green up your space. <\/span><\/p>\n Designer <\/span>Lisa Canning<\/span><\/a> turned us on to the outdoor products offered by Bouclair. Their decorative pillows are available in a variety of colors and patterns, all priced under $23.<\/span><\/p>\n This ain\u2019t your grandma\u2019s windchime! The white and black ceramic matte chimes look more like a piece of art than an outdoor accessory. <\/span><\/p>\n This perforated metal lantern creates a scattered, soft diffusion of light that will add ambiance to your backyard or balcony. <\/span><\/p>\n Keep your drinks cold and your outdoor space looking fresh. This insulated rolling cooler is available in lime, orange, red and teal. It includes a bottle opener and cap catcher, which in our opinion, is a *very* important feature.<\/span><\/p>\n Bocce ball is the curling of summer. While the game is typically played on natural soil or asphalt, your backyard will do just fine. This classic striped set is made of pine and easy to transport.<\/span><\/p>\n Marimekko\u2019s bold, playful patterns are inspired by nature, so it\u2019s no wonder the Finish brand integrated outdoor fabrics into their new Target line. This outdoor pouf is UV, water, weather and stain resistant with 3M Scotchgard\u2122. <\/span><\/p>\n A durable throw blanket is essential for all kinds of activities \u2014 like outdoor movies, picnics, beach trips and camping. This seersucker-inspired throw is currently on sale and features dip-dyed tassels for a whimsical look.<\/span><\/p>\n Upgrade tired patio furniture with colorful seat cushions. These cotton weave products from H&M are available in eight cheerful patterns.<\/span><\/p>\n Add tealights or air plants to this glass paneled terrarium with a weathered frame. Use it to add character to an al fresco dining table.<\/span><\/p>\n Why not spruce up your backyard or balcony with stylish accessories and decor?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":148933,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11269],"tags":[],"coauthors":[8647],"apple_news_notices":[],"yoast_head":"\n1.\u00a0Outdoor rug from <\/b>Target<\/b><\/a>, $149.99 <\/b><\/h2>\n
