redone my balcony

i have a beautiful balcony with a beach view, it was in need of some tlc, so me and my partner decided to revamp our little outside getaway, we wanted to privatise the area, and create an extension to our home we used astroturf on the floor to create a welcoming outdoor feel, and its washable, brush it down and hose it down! we even vacuumed it! (hoovered) adding elements of wicker baskets and fire logs around the edge, with planted lavender and other shrubbery along the edge in hanging basket/trellaces. but instead of hanging these baskets we placed them on the floor. adding a screen to the railings created a feel of intimacy and privacy. we used a brushwood to add texture and warmth. we then reused an old bench adding a dry brush paint effect to balance the concrete walls and greenery. finishing with an old fisherman's rope along the railings. few more little touches here and there and we have a beautiful balcony.
