Backyard Decorating Ideas

After taking a long vacation, I am finally back and while the summer is almost gone, I just started searching for backyard decor ideas.

After buying our house, we did some major upgrades to it, however, we didn't make any changes to the backyard. I am really hoping that next year we'll start to tackle this project as well. Some of the major things I would like to have are a fireplace and an outdoor kitchen.

Since I live in Arizona, I can not have in my backyard some of my favorite flowers like peonies, hydrangea and wisteria. So, I have decided to plant citrus trees and bougainvillea.

Also,  having a herb garden is on my list.

When it comes to your backyard, what do you envision?

I like to use yellow as an accent because it brightens the space. Also, this color combined with pink fuchsia creates cheerful color palette which reminds me of summer.

Since the walls of my house are grey, I think this would be a great color to use for one of my rooms.

Did you use or plan on using yellow when decorating?
