MAKING
THE MOST
of your space
STORY & PHOTOS BY REVIVAL LIVING INTERIORS Summer 2020 is here and we are ready for sunshine! We know this summer will look different for all of us. Instead of being sad about missing summer travel with hotels and VRBOs, we’re taking this time to celebrate our own backyards and time with our families. It never ceases to amaze us how a few changes can create an oasis for the whole family to enjoy. We’ve put together a Revival Recommends Backyard Collection to get you started on envisioning your own backyard sanctuary! Whether it’s a new couch, a few throw pillows or a great, new plant, we’re loving a neutral palate that lets the beauty of nature shine. A great mix of materials like wood, concrete, upholstery and iron help achieve the right blend of comfort, durability and beauty without distracting from the focus we want to have on the beauty of nature. We always enjoy grabbing some colorful flowers and some green plants from our favorite, local greenery. And don’t forget! The most beautiful design is no fun if you are getting eaten alive by mosquitos! Stacie’s dad is our own in-house entomologist and highly recommends these Thermacell Mosquito Repellers. We don’t know where COVID-19 has you, but we hope a little outdoor revival will create a space for great conversation, help bring some sunshine to your skin, and put a smile on your face. Like our mommas used to say “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade”.
