Create a Beautiful Boho Patio in 3 Easy Steps

Summer has definitely arrived here in Oregon! One of my favorite parts of the season is enjoying cool summer evenings outside. Creating an outdoor retreat always felt really daunting and expensive. However, I’ve learned that a a few key pieces easily turns any patio into an oasis. I’ve teamed up with Walmart to share some of my favorite items to create a beautiful boho patio space!

If you’re with me on Pinterest, you might have seen a lot of patio inspiration I’ve collected on my House Exteriors board. Many have an eclectic boho vibe

I drew upon those ideas to carefully curate some of my favorite pieces from the Walmart Home summer collection. I love how Walmart included a lot of texture and natural home decor elements this year! These are elements I look for in styling an outdoor space.
