Summer styling tips: How to decorate your Juliet balcony!

If you’re looking to give your home a seasonal refresh, a Juliet balcony is the perfect way to open up your space, bring the outside indoors and invite fresh air into your property, all while adding a touch of elegance.
Whether installed in a bedroom, living area or office, a Juliet balcony can brighten up any space - and with a few accessories it could be a standout feature this summer! Here are some creative ways to style your balcony:
Bring nature inside
Add some greenery and serenity by adding plants to your Juliet balcony. You could use:
- Hanging baskets or window boxes filled with trailing plants or vibrant flowers
- Potted herbs like basil, rosemary or lavender, adding fresh fragrances and ingredients for your kitchen
- Climbing plants such as jasmine or ivy, adding a touch of privacy and mystery
- For a low maintenance option, artificial plants offer a natural look without the commitment of watering!
Light it up
Create a warm and welcoming glow with subtle lighting adding a cosy romantic atmosphere even at night. You could consider:
- String or fairy lights, perfect for wrapping around railings
- LED candles or lanterns placed near your doors
- Solar charging options to save money & protect the planet
Create a cosy indoor nook
Whilst a Juliet balcony doesn’t offer standing space outside, the area just inside becomes a great place to relax:
- Position a comfy armchair, chaise lounge or small sofa nearby
- Add a light throw and side table for your morning coffee or evening tipple
- Turn the area into a quiet reading corner or relaxation zone looking out at your view
Celebrate the season
A Juliet balcony gives you the perfect excuse to have fun with seasonal décor:
- Drape bunting or flags to mark special occasions like summer festivals or the king’s birthday
- Use festive window decals on Juliet balcony doors
- Add seasonal cushions or indoor plants that reflect the time of the year
With the right styling, your Juliet balcony can become more than just a feature—it can be a functional and beautiful extension of your lifestyle.
