Spring and summer means more afternoons spent lazing around the house, particularly in the den or patio. Because you want to spend your days relaxing on your patio more enjoyable, isn’t it time to get the best and most comfortable patio furniture?

Sitting outdoor is more enjoyable if you can sit on patio bar chairs with your friends. You can also install a bar table with a drinks machine or a space for a cooler to complete the picture. Throw in a grill and you have an instant barbecue party with your family and guests.

Warm days are perfect for patio parties, that’s why you need to create a charming and comfortable patio environment that will make sitting outdoors more enjoyable. Here are some tips for setting up a patio that will charm you and your family…

How to Choose Spring Patio Furniture

Choose according to the size of your patio. Not all homes have spacious patios. Some patios are so small that only café-style tables will fit. Choose 4-seater cafe tables for your small patio, and a bar with stools for a more spacious one.

Choose furniture and accessories that will help you connect with nature. Add a few wood chimes if your locality is prone to strong winds. Choose hanging plants particularly herbs with exotic fragrances if your place is balmy and humid. Adding birdhouses with love birds or a parrot will make for a perfectly quaint patio.

If you love entertaining, get a couple of chaise lounges for lying down and relaxing. You can even install a hammock made of lightweight rattan. Hammocks are great because they’re more portable than love seats. They can be hung from the corners of the patio and covered with blankets and pillows. When you don’t feel like taking a nap, you can take it down to make way for more comfortable seating.

An outdoor patio without cover is also easy to set up. Get some patio umbrellas and turn your patio into a picnic spot. If your garden has a nice landscape, it’s a good idea to choose a patio theme that blends well with the garden.

There are different types of patio furniture to choose from, but it’s best to stick with weather-hardy furniture. Your patio is more exposed to the elements than your indoor furniture so it’s better to choose materials that can survive rains and heat. You also don’t want materials that could fade in color anytime. If you have to choose between colored and earth colors, choose earth colors.
