As part of the Better Homes and Gardens Live Better Blogger Network, I’m showing you a couple of my Easy Home Decorating Ideas. Like my 10-minute table decor, I love quick and easy decorating ideas. Especially if I can put them together inexpensively! (see how I’ve updated my living room decor since this post).
Our challenge this month was “A Fresh Take on Outdoor“. Yes, the BHG outdoor decor is hitting Walmart and there are so many new products! These products I’m sharing are CRAZY inexpensive! You’re going to flip at the style and quality. I’ll be sharing my affiliate links to all the products I’ve used today so you can get a jump start on your patio ideas. This is for your shopping convenience and does not cost you anything extra.
Easy Home Decorating Ideas
I’ve been dreaming of getting my porch ready for spring, but since it’s still snowing and raining just about every day, I decided to get creative and use a few of the outdoor products inside! I created a comfy spot to enjoy a cup of coffee and watch the rain come down.
There are no rules. Just because it says it’s for your patio, doesn’t mean you can’t bring it inside. You can find so many inexpensive and easy home decorating ideas by shopping the outdoor section at Walmart for BHG products.
When I first saw these pillows, I didn’t even think about using them inside. My plans are for my front porch in my red Adirondack chairs, but then I saw just how perfect they were for my sofa!
I couldn’t have planned it better had I tried.
Funny thing is, I’ve been casually looking for coordinating pillows for about a month! I love it when things just magically work out. I’m not even sure I will move them outdoors. I may have to just purchase more.
Easy Home Decorating Ideas are simple with $8.88 outdoor pillows! Get your Fleur Outdoor Toss Pillows here.
While I was shopping, I was able to find more lanterns. I’m only using 2 here, but I ended up purchasing 6. They come in 3 sizes, ranging from $6.75 to $14.06.
THAT IS CRAZY INEXPENSIVE! Use my affiliate links for all the BHG products and grab your own Galvanized Lantern Candle Holders Here.
You can never have enough lanterns. They are one of the most versatile decorating items. I love using them on the patio, the porch and for table decor. You can see how I used another BHG lantern for my Decorating for Christmas post.
I’m filling mine here with the BHG flameless candles with a few seashells thrown in for fun. These candles come with a remote, making it easy to turn the candles on and off.
The doors are magnetic, so if you were to hang them outside, they won’t open if it’s breezy.
One of my favorite mugs from BHG is their hobnail white coffee mugs. You can only purchase these in the store. They are $3.56 each.
It’s not for the outdoors, but this Better Homes and Gardens Rustic lamp is one of my favorites. At $20.15, it’s definitely in the easy home decorating ideas category!

You did a fantastic job! I love the color scheme and the decor (of course in the hands of my toddler it would not last long).
Donna Vinolus says
Love what you did with the outdoor items! Can you tell me please where you found the tray that the lanterns are on?
Kim says
That tray is from IKEA.
Sharon says
Love all these ideas! Your living room is lovely and inviting. Thank you for sharing.
Kim says
Thank you Sharon! That’s what I’m going for!
Stacy Risenmay says
Their hobnail dishes are my favorite! Those pillows look perfect on your couch!!!
Lolly Jane says
You’re right, the pillows price point is AMAZING! We had to snag more than 1!! So pretty!
Shannon Fox says
Indoor… outdoor… all pillows are loved equally 😉
What a great spot to snuggle up and await Spring (or really Summer) lol – we know.
Love all your goodies. I’m a sucker for lanterns, and I missed those!!
Elizabeth says
A friend of ours just decorated their new house family room with all outdoor furniture. While I never thought of doing that it actually looks pretty good. There were a lot of pluses doing that. It’s a bit cheaper, the furniture is quite durable and it looks good. Also there are lots of great outdoor pillows that I love. I bought a few of them for my family room.
Good ideas above. Thanks!
Nicole Hunn says
I loooove the idea of using outdoor products inside, Kim! With 3 kids and 3 dogs, I bet the outdoor decorating is a really practical choice.
I have to check out that line!
Kim says
Yes, no worries about the pillows getting ruined! For $8.88, just toss them in the wash or go buy more!
Amy Anderson says
So many gorgeous items! Your living room looks like a million bucks! I love that the items work in indoors and outdoors.
Kim says
Thanks Amy! Who knew you could use such inexpensive items to get a million dollar look! 🙂
Leigh Anne Wilkes says
You have the magic touch girl – you make everything so pretty! Love the pillows!!
Kim says
Thanks so much Leigh Anne! Those pillows are the best $9 dollars I’ve ever spent!
Mel says
You are so talented, Kim! I love how those items transition so well from outdoor to inside. I need all the help I can get when it comes to home decor. You make it look so easy! Love these ideas…
Kim says
Thank you Mel! You just gotta go for it!
Debbie says
