With summer just around the corner, it’s time to dust off the old BBQ and patio set to prepare for the next couple of months. Throwing a fantastic and fun outdoor party does not need to break the bank or stress you out. Follow these three simple steps to throw an evening your friends and family will remember.
Clean Up
Cleaning up both indoors and outdoors is equally important for your next event. Mow your grass, clean up after your pets, and store your gardening supplies before your guests arrive. Indoors, be sure to take some time to wipe down surfaces including countertops, toilets, sinks, and even sweep the floors. Clear any clutter for a fresh clean appearance.
Set Up
If you don’t have an outdoor table for your dinner, use your indoor table! With a little muscle, you can move your current table outdoors, decorate with some lovely coloured place settings and glasses and complete your setup in no time. Add chairs to the table, and others in the yard to give your guests a variety of seating options throughout the night.
Bring on the Light
Outdoor lighting is the most fun decorating task. There is a large variety of options available for any budget. Using candles of mixed shapes and sizes is a fun idea to bring relaxing light in or string some lanterns throughout your patio space. If you haven’t had a chance to take down your Christmas lights yet, those strands can come in handy year-round when used during your spring and summer outdoor parties.
