Sweet summertime is right around the corner, and you know what that means. Pool parties, family gatherings, bonfires, etc. Summertime is my favorite season because I get to spend more time outside in the beautiful sunny weather. Since summer is coming up the first thing that comes to mind is preparing the PERFECT patio. I’m going over my 10 must-haves you need to have if you are entertaining guests this summer. Trust me, these are all products you NEED!!
1. Outdoor Furniture
Outdoor furniture is definitely a must. Having a nice place to sit and have great conversations with our loved ones is definitely something everyone needs. if you have an outdoor space that fits a full outdoor couch then you really should consider investing in one.
2. Firepit
Ok well, I think this one speaks for itself. I mean what’s the point of spending time outside without making smores?? I mean who doesn’t love smores?? This is exactly why a fire pit outside is essential plus it great to keep your guest cozy!! You can place a large coffee table with a firepit builtin to surround all of the guests, or you can grab this small tabletop firepit which looks great on any end table!
3. Planters
Planters are great to have! planting beautiful flowers or succulents is great and makes space feel more inviting. placing some yellow, pink, or purple tone flowers is perfect for the summertime as they brighten the space up!
4.Bar
Outdoor entertaining automatically means you need a bar! This is a necessity if you do not have an outdoor fridge or ice chest. This one is from Amazon and it’s perfect for anyone with small spaces and collapses down into a seat. This is great for beers, soda, wine, etc.
5. Storage Ottoman
If you have a pool then trust me this will be your best friend. Pool floaties can really pile up and take up a ton of space. I place all pool floaties in an ottoman storage box because it can add seating and stores all of the pool floaties you have.
6. Speakers
Speakers really liven up the party. It’s a must if you are throwing a pool party. these ones are great. A tiki torch speaker is perfect because you can place a couple around your backyard and space out the music. A smaller more modern speaker is also available.
7. Projector
A projector is such a great addon. It’s for any sports fan to watch games on a bigger screen. It’s also great to watch movies, tv shows, and so much more. It’s definitely something to consider adding. This projector is very inexpensive and is portable.
8. Hammock
during the summertime just lying down and enjoying the weather is a great way to wind d. Hammocks are perfect and this one has a stand-in which you don’t have to connect it to anything.
9. Lighting
Every outdoor space needs a good amount of lighting. it creates a beautiful aesthetic at night and adds so much to space. You can add string lights or even these new more modern orbe lights that you can throw into the pool or hang them up.
10. Outdoor Cooking
One of the best parts of spending time outdoor is hearing steaks sizzle on the grill. this is why this smoker/grill is perfect its a great way to keep costs low since it has both the grill and the smoker. It’s also great because it’s one less appliance you need. This Blackstone is affordable and is a great way to make cooking outside easier.
11. Umbrella
A good quality umbrella is definitely something you need during the summertime because it adds shade and keeps you from getting sunburned. A great UV-resistant umbrella can be added by the patio furniture or next to the pool lounge chairs.
