It doesn't have to be through the upholstery - you can paint wooden furniture like this Chinoiserie bench yourself.

I love that they put a garden gnome into this super-chic outdoor space so much that I can't even stand it!

Adding a bench and various plants is a great way to fill an odd corner that may otherwise feel empty and unfinished. A round table, ornate bench and softly-shaped leaves keep this area from feeling too rigid and angular.

A number of eclectic pieces add interest and distract from the small size of this patio. While the wrought iron chairs and Chinese Chippendale garden bench are traditional pieces, the paint color choices and throwing them together with that interesting table give it an eclectic look. This person is also a patio-er after my own heart, as they've added a funny little gnome as an accent piece!

Gain impact in a pocket-size nook. This wedge of space behind a city townhouse looks like a sculptural installation, thanks to the perfect placement of furniture and plants. This room may not be officially sunken, but when it's viewed from above there's the pleasing illusion of a change in grade.Tile flooring creates a bold rhythm, while a trio of planters emphasizes each corner. Seating is aligned along the diagonal, creating a strong point of view. As pretty to look at as it is pleasant to sit and eat a meal on, the mint-green seating — a Lutyens bench and two midcentury wire armchairs — is lovely and lighthearted. The scalloped petal table looks like a flower from above.Can you say "sweet retreat"?

Spring-fresh furnishings with strong, sculptural lines spark this otherwise basic patio. The sea green of the bench and chairs brings out the greens of the plants, while the tabletop evokes the impression of flower petals.

The Houzz: New York City townhouseBy: Dufner HeighesTip: Pack a big punch with a small patio.This New York City townhouse may have a postage stamp–size patio, but that doesn't mean it lacks style. A Lutyens-style bench in fresh spring green paired with a petallike table and modern wire chairs makes a dynamic arrangement well suited for the urban outdoors.

7. Soften corners with plants. Sharply angled corners are not only a challenge to decorate, but if left empty they can make a space feel cramped and uncomfortable. Fill in tight corners with potted plants to soften the angles — tall plants and topiaries work especially well.
