Everything Outdoor: 5 Favorite Outdoor Furniture Additions

With the winter months fading away and lovely springtime weather here to stay, now is the ideal time to craft an outdoor living space that’s perfect for creating memories with your loved ones and enhancing your property! From sizzling barbecues in the afternoon to relaxing nights under the stars, our wide selection of outdoor patio furniture contains all the attractive, quality pieces you need to design your new favorite space.

Putting together your outdoor patio is easier than ever before: Simply think of your favorite ways to spend time outdoors with your family, friends, and pets, and add your first piece or two catered to those activities. Add more pieces as your furniture budget allows, and before you know it, your personalized patio is complete! Here are five of our favorite outdoor furniture additions that you can use to transform an ordinary backyard:

Fire Pit

One of the absolute hottest pieces of outdoor furniture we carry – and we do mean hot, literally – is an outdoor firepit! Perfect for spending time outdoors, trading stories, toasting marshmallows, and adding a heat source to the cool evenings, a charming outdoor firepit set like this Paradise - Medium Brown - Round Fire Pit Table by Ashley Furniture will captivate your crowd for years. If your patio doesn’t include a space that you feel is large enough for a fire pit, you can easily use pavers to carve out a safe area for lively flames and plenty of seating. This outdoor project is easy to complete over a weekend and the addition of a firepit will instantly make your backyard a favorite gathering spot of the entire family.

Sectional

When it comes to entertaining guests in your outdoor living area, comfortable seating can give your patio the feel of an open-air living room. Whereas individual seats or chairs can get blown over by the wind or rain, an attractive, weatherproof outdoor sectional instantly adds an upscale element to your outdoor design that’s built to last. We love an outdoor sectional such as this Beachcroft Sectional by Ashley Furniture that comfortably sits several people as a stylish seating solution. Accessorize your outdoor sectional with vibrant pops of color from eye-catching outdoor pillows and your patio becomes even more inviting.

Big Green Egg

This simple addition immediately turns your backyard into the family restaurant that can open at a moment’s notice. Did we mention that The Big Green Egg makes an excellent gift for Father’s Day?
