If entertaining and outdoor living is your thing, then you must already have your backyard set up. If you’re like others who’d love a pretty back yard but stuck on ideas – here are some amazing ideas to help you enjoy your outdoor space with company.
Bring the table
For tabletop games such as dominos, spades or for simple dining, a nice glass or wooden table is the way to go. Depending on the size of your backyard, you can go for either a round table, your average rectangular table, or oblong table. If the table comes without an umbrella, you can add some beautiful and colorful place mats and some small candle centerpieces to give it that extra pop of color and make it more intimate.
Seating
For a cozy lounge feel, try an outdoor rug, some comfortable chairs or even a sectional accompanied by some colorful pillows and small tables (any shape). Tables can be used to set drinks on and can be used to place trays with whiskey, wine, different beers, ice buckets or even cigars for your guests to enjoy.
Light a fire
For the cold summer nights, a fire pit is always a nice way to bring people together. Fire pits not only keep you warm, but allows you to also make s’mores, tell stories and so on. Fire pits are a thing of the now. Whether it’s with glass rocks or wood, it’s a nice feature to have.
Game time
For a great time, lawn games are a must-have for everyone (big or little). All the games are interactive and if you like a little competition, than this is perfect. You can’t go wrong with corn hole, ladder ball, bean bag toss, horseshoes and so on. This is a great way to bond together as a family.
