We have an enclosed patio just off our living room. I would like to make an "outdoor living room" for the summer.
Any tips...?

I guessing nice outdoor furniture? Plastics to avoid moisture damage and bug infestations.
Bug bulbs and zappers. Maybe a "brown" astroturf carpet? If you have the money, a weatherproof speaker set for music.
An enclosed fire pit/cage?
I'm guessing enclosed meaning screened with these tips. Take into account humidity, bugs and fading from the sun when furnishing and placement of furniture. Have Fun!
If you go to the hgtv.com site you can find ideas. Paint the floor, add curtains of something fun and airy. Recycle furniture from garage sales. Wicker is always fun. Give it a theme make it look like an cabin or a garden room. There are wonderful sisal outdoor/indoor carpets for little cost and wear wonderfully. I think Penny's has them. The key would be happy and summery, bright and light....a place you want to site for a cup of coffee and read the paper.
