From Porch to Patio and Everything in Between

Cold Drinks. Backyard Barbecues. And Relaxing. They’re all the makings of the perfect summer evening when enjoying time with family and friends. It’s the season when everyone is looking for ways to spend time outside, and with a little ingenuity, a bit of a green thumb and a knack for do-it-yourself projects, the backyard can easily become an outdoor oasis. Here are some summer project tips:


Garden Ready: Make sure garden beds are free of overgrowth and weeds. If they’re looking a little sparse, consider enhancing the area with a few low-maintenance perennials planted in illuminated planters by GardenGlo shown here.


Add a touch of lighting with a unique outdoor torch such as the Kona Torch Set as seen here, or mix it up a little and put up a Planter Lamp such as the Milano Patio Planter Lamp shown here.



Outdoor Living: Cooking with outdoor grills can help keep the heat out of the kitchen. An outdoor fire pit serves as an inviting centerpiece to the area, allowing everyone to enjoy cooler summer evenings. One really cool style of Barbecue grills go wherever you go – to the beach, the pool, or tailgate parties. Both styles are super convenient because they come in either charcoal or small portable propane tanks like those shownhere.

Relax and Enjoy: Finally, create seating areas where family and friends can relax. The classic Adirondack chair is the perfect option for additional seating like these shown here. Or … Take it a step further and create a cozy rocking chair for your porch or patio like the one shown here, including a table and a place for an umbrella to shade the area. You’ll have a new outdoor seating area that is custom for your backyard oasis. Click Here to View Numerous Umbrella Styles for your Outdoor Space. Need them fast?
