Fall's Best Outdoor Spaces

As the air turns crisp, take it outside for a setting that is sure to wow. Fall's Best Outdoor Rooms features a roundup of decorating and entertaining ideas that will be the hit of the season.

A rustic barn makes the perfect dining room for a fall meal. Here, feed sacks topped with an indigo linen runner and a mix of blue-and-white china establish the table's vintage, rustic feel and complement the rich russet hues of the barn, fall leaves, and piles of fresh apples.

Fall Garden Terrace

This garden terrace is given fall flair with white and gray pumpkins. If you can't find these varieties locally, try spray paint. We like using Design Master Colortool sprays

Cozy Screened Fall Porch

A wood-burning fireplace is the center of attention in this porch, and dozing, reading, and chatting are the orders of the day. An indoor-outdoor rug softens and defines the gathering space. The seating arrangement includes a upholstered swing that the homeowner had custom made based on an antique bench she saw at a Paris flea market.

Vintage Brick Patio

The brick in this courtyard came from old buildings that were torn down. The biggest issue with antique brick is there are several different sizes and it tends to get mixed up. So these homeowners set the brick in sand, rather than concrete, to give a relaxed and aged look. Plus, the sand helped level odd-size bricks.
