Patio fire pits have seen a surge in popularity in recent years. And with good reason! A patio fire pit will ward off evening chills and provides a cozy, campfire-like effect right in your own backyard.

The warmth of a patio fire pit makes it an inviting space to entertain outdoors on a summer night or during crisp fall evenings.

What are the best outdoor patio lights? There’s no right or wrong answer to that question. Outdoor patio lights can set the mood of your space and define your patio style.

For example, a patio draped in fairy lights invites you to relax, surrounded by a soft glow of tiny, twinkling lights. Whether you hang string lights from the trees or a pergola, they can create a mellow, relaxing atmosphere.

For a more rustic look, you can use torches or lanterns for heavier swaths of light to illuminate your patio. Less dainty in their appearance, metal lanterns or bamboo or wood torches can add a more down-home feel to your patio. 

For something in the middle, you can create a tranquil place to unwind with well-placed real or faux candles to add light to your space.

When coming up with patio furniture color schemes, it’s important to work with your environment to create a harmonious color palette.

Take note of natural features such as any trees or flowers in your landscape and features of your home and patio to see what works. Most importantly, choose colors and a design that matches your personal design aesthetic.

If bright hues aren’t for you, opt for softer pastels to give your outdoor space a Floridian patio color scheme. Complete the look by adding pottery, pillows, and throws in shades of Coral Pink and Biscay Green.

Want a nautical look in classic tones? Decorate your patio with shades of Brilliant White and Navy Blazer, then add smaller accents in either a Biscay Blue or Flame Scarlet to shake things up a bit.

The nice thing about using color with patio chair cushions and other decorative items on your patio is that you can change your space from season to season with on-trend colors to suit your ever-changing style.

When you want to give the illusion of a larger space, less is more. To reduce distraction and create more visual space, don’t clutter your patio with too many decorations.

Instead, make use of surrounding space and keep it simple. If your patio offers you and your guests a nice view, angle your seating to make the most of it. Also, try using a small grill set off to the side of your patio to give your guest more space to enjoy the outdoors.

Heighten the look of your patio by dangling string lights or tall plants to draw the eye upward. To create an illusion of a longer patio, incorporate plants at intervals across the patio and even onto your yard.
