Small rental balcony makeover on a budget

To maximize seating in this narrow space, I built a custom bench to fit the width of the balcony and I made a fold-down table that slides over the balcony wall. It's easy to pull up when you need it but it doesn't take up any room when it's down and you can always use the top part to display decorative items. I also used a stool that can double as a table and an inexpensive outdoor chair from IKEA to complete the seating area. Isabelle LaRue
