‘Tis the season to spoil the special someone in your life. These 10 gifts will do just that. They may be a treat for you too!
- New Lounge Chairs. Want to take your outdoor space to a new level? Update your lounge chairs. They will make you and your guests look forward to going outside. Even better – now’s when you can score awesome deals on great furniture.
- Drinkware. Sure, a set of crystal tumblers is always nice. But this Christmas, why not get something that’s a little more practical? Why not get something that will actually get used time and time again? A set of outdoor glasses is the kind of functional item everyone will love. Pair them with your favorite book of cocktail recipes and you’ll have a sure winner.
- Large Family-Style Outdoor Dining Table. Family dinners don’t have to be in the dining room. In fact, eating outside can be even more fun – if you have enough table space. With a large, family-style outdoor dining table you will. Let your other half know that you’ll also do the dishes and they’ll swoon.
- Hanging Planters. How do you take a small patio and make it into a luscious garden? Hanging planters! Growing up is one of the best ways to maximize space. Give the gardener in your life a few artistic hanging planters and watch as they get creative.
- Patio Cushions. What’s one easy way to infuse comfort for less into your outdoor space? Patio cushions. Find a few that compliment your friend’s patio and you’ll probably get an invite when the weather’s nice for a leisurely afternoon outside.
- Patio Rug. Rugs can add texture and comfort to any space. You want something that’s sturdy, like the Chilewich’s finely woven indoor/outdoor rugs.
- Outdoor Stereo. Turn up the tunes! Look for a stereo that’s sturdy and offers good sound quality. We’re quite partial to the Bose SoundLink® Bluetooth® speaker III. It’s great for the patio and it travels well.
- Solar Lantern. Lighting sets the mood. It’s even more effective when that lighting is also easy! As lovely as candles are, they can be messy, a pain to light, and then pain extinguish. A solar lantern is as simple as an on-off switch. And, it charges on its own. No batteries needed!
- Thick Blanket. Want to make sure she’ll cuddle with you? Give her a thick blanket and tell her it’s for sharing.
