Summer is Here! What's On Your Patio?

May 26

Y'all, can you feel that warm breeze? Hear those birds chirpin' and see those fireflies twinkle at dusk? That's right—it's summer in the South! Time to dust off those patio chairs, grab a glass of sweet tea and transform your outdoor space into a cozy haven where the good times roll. Whether you're a seasoned porch sitter or a patio party enthusiast, we've got all the inspiration you need to make your summer simple and clutter-free. So, put on your favorite pair of flip-flops, and let's get this patio party started!

One of the best ways to create a clutter-free patio is to keep it cozy. Add a comfy sofa or set of chairs with fluffy cushions. Consider investing in versatile pieces that can easily adapt to different occasions. Choose materials that are low maintenance and weather-resistant, ensuring durability and longevity for years to come.

Clutter can take away from the serenity of your patio. To keep your outdoor space clutter free incorporate multi-functional furniture with hidden compartments such as benches or coffee tables. Use stylish storage bins or baskets to stow away cushions, blankets, and other outdoor items when they’re not in use. Having designated storage spots allows you to maintain a clutter-free environment and be ready to relax at a moment’s notice.

Greenery is a must-have for any outdoor space if you don’t have enough already. Add some Southern charm to your patio with potted plants or hanging baskets. You could also add a trellis for climbing plants with ivy or jasmine for a natural privacy screen. For the finishing touch add lanterns or string lights to create a magical atmosphere for a cocktail or two in the evening.

Above everything else less is more, keeping it simple and clutter-free allows you to sip your sweet tea without a care in the world. Cheers to a summer filled with fun and relaxing memories!
