Styling your Cedar Pergola

Create a comfortable place for outdoor dining and entertaining with one of our Meridian Pergola structures. Fixed roof or louvered roof options are available, in a variety of sizes. Once your structure is in place, there are a variety of options as to how you can you style your pergola to create the perfect outdoor living area.

Offering an intimate space to relax with your favourite book, enjoy a meal in the sun or shade or host gatherings with family and friends. There’s enough space under your pergola to create an outdoor room. Add a dining table or a collection of chairs, both perfect for conversation and socialising.

Soft Furnishings

Adding throws, blankets and cushions under your pergola can create a soft relaxing and comfortable ambiance. Fabrics that work well for outdoor use include polypropylene. Polypropylene has high UV resistance and is the best choice for outdoor cushions because it dries quickly when wet. B&Q offer various colour options, but we love these green ones for a subtle injection of colour to compliment the garden surroundings. Or how about these rainbow ones from The Range for a real pop of colour!

Flowers, Pots and Plants

A variety of flowers, herbs or green leafy plants will compliment your Yardistry pergola set up. Choose colours that compliment one another, or a selection of herbs you will use in your cooking. Some herbs and plants will scent the air and offer a delightful environment in which to relax.

Lighting

Festoon lighting allows celebrations and dining to continue late into the evening, as well as offering ambiance whilst setting the scene. Battery operated fairy light strings can also be added to fall from the pergola structure. B&Q have some great lighting offers ahead of summer, check out these festoon solar powered ones. Outdoor uplighting also highlights your structures features if positioned well.

We would love to see your pictures of how you have styled yours!
