small balcony? This is how you make the best use of space | MyGuide

Sometimes the balcony is so small that it is difficult to put a table on it. That’s a shame, because it’s nice to be able to leave your drink on while reading a book in the sun. Or to store a handy portable lamp or set of candles. A folding table offers a solution. You can easily fold such a table in and out, and once you’re not using it, you won’t miss out on precious space.

Another option if you don’t really have room for a small table is to make a small narrow strip on the balcony railing. All you need for this is a narrow board that you attach to the railing. This way you won’t take up space on the floor, but you can still store some cool accessories – or that drink.

A common mistake is the desire to create a full-fledged seating area. Unfortunately, this is not always possible on a small balcony. And if it works, it’s usually so stuffed that it doesn’t feel any more comfortable. Therefore, choose a garden bench that is small in width, rather than two separate garden chairs that take up a lot of space together. You can both sit comfortably on the seat without becoming too cramped. And if there’s a third person, just grab a chair to give everyone a seat.
