Outdoor Vibes: How to Create a Summer Oasis with Statement Vases & Decor

Summer is the perfect time to refresh your outdoor spaces, and adding statement vases and sculptural décor can take your patio, porch, or garden from ordinary to unforgettable. At Ammons Design & Home Decor, we believe it’s all about layering textures, colors, and natural elements to build your own backyard retreat.

Start with large, weather-resistant vases in bold shapes or colors—perfect for displaying seasonal greenery or dried arrangements. Our ceramic vase trios, for example, work beautifully when grouped together on outdoor dining tables or nestled near seating areas. To make things even more inviting, pair these with decorative lanterns or string lights that cast a soft glow at night.

For smaller patios or apartment balconies, vertical styling can make a big impact. Use tiered plant stands or wall-mounted shelves to showcase your favorite pottery and planters without taking up floor space. Don’t forget to bring some of your favorite indoor décor elements outside—like throw pillows, woven rugs, or crystal centerpieces—to create a cohesive transition between your interior and exterior spaces.

Styling Tips:

  • Use odd-number groupings for a designer look

  • Mix glazed and matte finishes for visual interest

  • Incorporate lanterns or candles for warm evening ambiance
