Perfect PatioChange the outside furniture. You don’t have to buy a whole set of patio furniture but you can get away with a few key items. Buy a rectangular outdoor table with chairs. This will be great to entertain your guest and host dinner parties all year long. If you have limited outdoor living space you can definitely incorporate extra seating by doing a lounge area. Try using large furniture instead of smaller pieces this way it will prevent the area from feeling too cluttered. Shop for new patio furniture in outlet stores, best time to shop is close to the end of summer when they are trying to make room for fall inventory.
