So, it is becoming a trend for people to transform their tiny balconies into outdoor dining areas. Below are some interesting ideas you can use when considering to transform your balcony into an outdoor dining space:- • If you want your balcony to look like a garden, install artificial grass on the floor. • You can also lay out interlocking deck tiles on your balcony floor or combine them with artificial grass. • Paint unwanted crates and use them as tables or shelves. • Use railing planters to arrange pots neatly on your balcony railing. You can also plant herbs and flowers in garden containers or use vertical garden stands to add more greenery to your balcony. • Add a small grill to your balcony space. If can, get a balcony grill as it saves space. • Add a bench and place an outdoor bench cushion and other normal cushions so you can have your meals at your balcony. • Place an indoor water fountain at your balcony for the sounds of water. Have any of you turned your balcony into an outdoor dining space? How did it turn out?

All you need is a few pine boards, screws, wood stain, furring strip, and a cushion from IKEA (or anywhere else). If you don't like the look of the wooden paneling edging your balcony, you could grow plants and vines for added appeal.
