Make Your Patio Awesome

Make Your Patio Awesome
A patio is a patio right? Not exactly. We view patios as an extension of your home, your outdoor family room, so to speak. A family room is not a family room right? It is your family room and you have probably gone to great lengths to make it special. Why not do the same with your patio?
Here are a few ways to make your patio awesome:
Add a seat wall – This sounds simple enough, and it is. A seat wall around part of your patio not only provides extra seating capacity, but also creates a boundary to your patio, making it feel cozier and more private. Another benefit to a seat wall is that when other families come over, the children naturally migrate to sit on the seat wall leaving the parents to enjoy the meal even more.
Light it up – Lighting can greatly enhance any patio room and extend its usefulness into the night. With today’s technology, LED lights can also save energy and reduce the need to change light bulbs. An automatic timer makes the whole system care free.
Let there be fire! – What is better than sitting around a campfire in the comfort of your backyard. A fire pit can really make a good evening a great evening. Choose from wood burning or gas, just save us a s’more.
There is no reason in the world to settle for boring. With these options, your patio can be awesome!
