Outdoor Furniture and Accessories You Didn’t Know You Needed in Your Life
You look at your outdoor garden space and think that it’s seeming a little dull and lifeless lately. You’re thinking of getting brand new outdoor furniture and accessories to give your space some much-needed TLC and transform it into the ultimate garden oasis.
Actually, now is the perfect time to go shopping for these items because the Black Friday shopping marathon is just around the corner. To help you come up with a list of things to buy for your outdoor space, here are our favourites:
- Gazebo canopy – This is an absolute must-have in any garden space because this is multi-purpose and sustainable. You can use this for when you’re entertaining guests, or as an extra shelter for your herb garden so they won’t get drenched in the rain. You can also use this gazebo to provide shade near your pool area so that kids can frolic and swim without getting too much sunburn. There’s a long list of reasons why gazebos are an amazing addition to your garden so definitely add this to your Black Friday list.
- Lounge chair and ottoman set – Transform your outdoor garden into a literal living space where family members can just sit, enjoy a tall iced tea, and soak in the warm late afternoon sun. Put in comfortable lounge chairs that have their own ottomans to instantly have that luxury resort vibe in your home. Throw in a couple of thick pillows too so that if anyone needs to take a nap by the pool, they absolutely can.
- Large rug – If you have little kids running around, this is a great addition for your outdoor space. You can instantly turn your little garden space or pool lounge area into a mini playground. Your kids can bring out their toys and spread them all out on the large rug so they can play all day long. There are a variety of choices when it comes to outdoor rugs, but definitely choose one that is weather-proof but can be easily stored away during cyclone season.
- Simple bench with storage – No one will ever say no to having additional storage space. If you want to add more seating for your outdoor patio or deck, why not have a bench that doubles as a storage trunk? You can use it to store blankets, extra pillows, or even gardening tools that you use on occasion. It’s really wise to add in extra seating for your patio, especially if you’re fond of entertaining with late night wine tastings or Sunday brunches. It’s also a great idea to add a casual table, one that folds away into a corner, and you can just bring it out when it’s time to serve the burgers.
- Porch swing – This clever little furniture nicely rounds up having the resort vibes right in your own home. The patio of your dreams won’t ever be complete without a swinging couch that has a built-in canopy. It’s a good conversation piece for when you have guests over, and it extends your living room right out into your garden too. You should even do a matching set so that more guests can enjoy and swing right in your outdoor deck. Fun, right?
Don’t forget to add all these things when you’re out battling the Black Friday rush!
