Stylish Backyard Getaways

With most of us experiencing the winter blues, I have put together a collection of fabulous garden oases to lift our spirits. Why not start thinking about your outdoor spring decorating, instead of planning that summer vacation you had in mind? With an outdoor getaway like this, you can escape into your own private world this spring.

BDB Tips:

  • Use UV fabrics for outdoor upholstering to prolong the life of your furniture
  • If you are re-painting old patio furniture, make sure to use a spray paint that protects from rust or a lacquer over wood that seals out moisture
  • Use bushes, climbing vines and other plants for natural shade and privacy

In Provence for The Holidays – French Chateau

Thinking of buying a holiday home? Why not buy a gorgeous French chateau like this one near Les Euzies-de-Tayac. Situated on 30 acres with a stream running through it, this property features seven bedrooms, six baths, a barn, high ceilings, terra cotta and hardwood floors, and a beautiful swimming pool.

What I love about this home’s open concept is the cozy feeling you get with a grand fireplace serving as a focal point and main attraction. The big dining table and wooden ceiling beams all add to the authenticity and history of the home. Check it out:
