A well-decorated balcony can greatly improve the quality of life. What do you like to decorate the balcony with?

Life is not only about running, but also about poetry and beauty, a sofa, a book, a cup of tea and a glass of wine. Let's see how to build a miniature garden from scratch on the balcony at home:

Determine the use and form of the balcony. The function of balcony should not be limited to the mindset of ordinary people. Can be used in literature and art, and can be used at home. A small balcony can be a mini garden, a lounge, a snack bar, or even a Little Paradise for pets. Planting flowers, making tea, resting, shopping and sightseeing on the balcony are all good choices. ......

Before determining the type of balcony garden, you need to plan the main purpose of the balcony.

If your balcony is small, it is recommended to be practical. Simple paving+potted plants+portable outdoor furniture is the best combination, which is beautiful, practical and easy to take care of.

For families with a large balcony area and even a roof terrace, a landscape balcony can be built according to the owner's hobby.

Before building a balcony garden, you need to determine the overall style. Besides your own preferences, you should also consider the style of the whole house and the surrounding environment. For example, the whole house is in a classical Chinese style, and it is not appropriate for the balcony garden to create a nostalgic grocery store style.

There are many choices of balcony floor paving materials, such as anticorrosive wood floor and carbonized wood floor.

Carbonized wood floors and anticorrosive wood floors are natural, warm, rich in texture and easy to install.

In addition, cement bricks with simple and natural appearance are also suitable for laying outdoor floor tiles. This material is light in weight and high in strength. Of course, it is also a good choice to use stones such as bluestone, pebbles and granite as the terrace floor, but Bian Xiao thinks that wood is more comfortable and warm than stone. what do you think?

The paved balcony can be used for you to tread barefoot, and you can also put some cushions and pillows. You can also put some carpets on the balcony, which is not only beautiful, but also adds an outdoor rest space. Drinking tea and raising flowers is a good choice.

Besides being beautiful, balcony furniture should also follow the principle of portability and easy cleaning. Log-colored tables and chairs are matched with almost any balcony, and the tables and chairs with small legs are small, light and comfortable.

In addition to regular tables and chairs, you can also make full use of the three-dimensional space of the balcony, where shelves, bookshelves and even small tables are placed.

Rattan furniture, with its simple and refreshing characteristics, has also become a new round of home decoration fashion, and has a natural affinity with the outdoors.

Also, this kind of steel or aluminum chair is very practical. The lines full of design sense are simple and generous, and all useless decorations are abandoned. But very harmoniously integrated into the whole natural system.

Waterproof problem In our concept, the balcony has a pain point that is hard to avoid-waterproof.

In fact, the current waterproof materials are very advanced and powerful. There is something called waterproof coiled material, which is the first barrier for waterproofing in construction projects.

It can effectively avoid the damage of ultraviolet rays or temperature changes to the waterproof layer and has excellent water resistance, flexibility and aging resistance.

However, there are many kinds of waterproof coiled materials with different properties, and the selected materials have great influence on the quality and durability of waterproof layer. Therefore, both the choice of building materials and the construction technology should be strictly controlled to avoid endless future troubles.

Since green plants and flowerpots are "balcony gardens", plants are of course the highlight. Considering the size and functionality of the family balcony, it is suggested that you use a certain number of flowerpots to plant plants instead of flower ponds. As the carrier of plants, flowerpots are not colorful and grotesque. Recently, the more popular cement flowerpots, coarse pottery flowerpots, or black and white flowerpots are all good choices.

Although the balcony is small, there is a lot of three-dimensional space. In addition to flower racks and hangers, balcony walls and railings are also acceptable. Search for "wall-hung flowerpots" and "multi-layer flower stands" on a treasure, and the prices are very close to the people.
