It won’t be long before fall is here with the perfect weather for spending time on the patio. Maybe you’ve been enjoying your outdoor space, but you’re thinking of even more ways you’d like to use it – relaxing in the mornings with a cup of hot tea, entertaining large groups, or sitting by the fire for a quiet evening.
Here we share a few ideas to help you keep living that patio life – even as the days get shorter and the evenings get cooler – so you can make the most of your outdoor space. Plus, with some of our best offers of the year happening now, it’s the perfect time to save too.
Evening Lighting
As the evenings get darker, we love to extend the season and enjoy the magic of a cool fall evening with a little added lighting on the patio. Candlelight sets a relaxing mood, and open wicker lanterns or glass hurricane candle-holders are a beautiful way to bring flickering light to the evening. Both work perfectly with our flameless Luminara outdoor candles too. These popular candles have an extremely lifelike flame, and they’re made of outdoor-friendly materials that can stand up to the warmth and humidity of a summer evening.
For added fragrance, check out our collection of candles from Himalayan Trading Post. Hand-poured in Georgia, these artisan candles feature a clean-burning, soy-wax blend – infused with high-quality essential oils and complex, nostalgic scents like ginger patchouli, tobacco bark, and grapefruit pine.
Fire + Heat
For even more ambiance, the perfect way to celebrate fall on the patio is with the light and movement from a fire’s flame. If lounging by a fire pit with drinks and a casual meal is your goal, you’ll love our popular chat-sized fire pits. They offer a wide, table-like surface at a comfortable height to set your drinks and plates while you relax. In our collection, you’ll find both modern and contemporary styles in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and heights to match your space.
To really extend your patio season, a standing heater makes a great addition around outdoor dining and seating areas. We have a variety of designs to choose from, so you can find the perfect one to match your style and warm up your outdoor space this fall.
Comfortable Lounging
As the temperatures cool down, fall on the patio means settling into a nice comfortable seat with a blanket as you enjoy the fire. For a small space, you might add a cushioned sofa or a couple deep-seated lounge chairs with a side table. Or for larger gatherings, a wide sectional will offer the space and comfort to keep everyone chatting the night away. Decorative pillows are a great way to up the level of comfort, and they can easily be swapped out to welcome each changing season.
