The 10 Worst Mistakes to Avoid in Outdooring

Here's the English translation:

1) Assess your project
Do you need a landscaper? A carpenter? A mason?

You're planning work such as installing a pergola, setting up an outdoor kitchen, or installing a garden shed.

To avoid any inconvenience, it's strongly recommended that you check your city's zoning and building regulations.

2) Lighting and safety
You're creating your patio to extend your evenings outdoors and bring a warm atmosphere. String lights are very popular in outdoor decor — make sure your outlets are safe, with no electrical cords lying on the ground.

There are so many new products and beautiful items that are both attractive and practical, whether it's LED lights, battery-powered candles, solar lamps, and more.

3) Furniture
Make sure your furniture is suited to outdoor conditions.
If you're drawn to a particular outdoor furniture set, watch out for its size! Furniture that's too large will clutter your space.

4) Storage
Don't forget multifunctional furniture to keep your outdoor space tidy. Think ottoman benches and storage chests.

5) Don't overlook shaded areas
Summer without sun protection quickly becomes uncomfortable. To enjoy your space without suffering from the heat or getting sunburned, plan for a parasol, a pergola, or shade sails.

6) Flooring
Always think aesthetics, comfort, durability, and safety.
Wood is warm and inviting but requires maintenance.
Ceramic is CHIC, yes, but can be slippery.
Choose carefully, and add a rug if needed.

7) Adding plants, watering, and fertilizing
Find out which plant varieties suit the environment you've chosen — is it compatible with SUN or SHADE conditions?
Some plants require a lot of care.
Pay close attention to watering — a wilted plant is a suffering plant, and that's sad.
Don't have a green thumb? Artificial plants are also an option.
Note: Due to UV exposure, artificial plants typically last only 1 to 2 seasons, depending on how much sun exposure they get.
