A backyard truly worthy of
entertaining is a rare but wonderful thing. Anyone can plop a
keg down in the middle of their yard, surround it with some
plastic stacking chairs (watch out for the one with the weak
leg), and throw some hotdogs on the grill. But is this really
what we want our summer parties and barbeques to consist of?
Aren't we ready to class up these get-togethers and leave the
kegger mentality where it belongs, back in college.
If the previous paragraph came close to describing your average
weekend party, and you're ready to leave that all behind and
look into some new patio furniture and accessories, we are here
for you. But you've got to want it; we can only take you so far.
What we're going to do here is give you some tips and
suggestions, but we can't hold your hand, only you can help you.
For those only ready to take baby steps in their pursuit of
better backyard bashes, we understand, we can help. There are
plenty of options out there for you, brave soul. We'll start
with some all-weather, virtually indestructible Poly-Wood. This
unbelievable stuff requires no maintenance and will surely
impress your earth-conscious friends when you tell them it's
made from 100% post-industrial and post-consumer recycled
plastics. If you don't have any earth-conscious friends then
Poly-Wood is a great way to make some.
Even though there's no beating Poly-Wood for maintenance-free,
long lasting patio furniture, there's also no beating the
classic look of wood patio furniture. From the soft, pale tones
of white cedar and pine to the richness of redwood and cherry, a
couple Adirondack chairs around a low patio table is a great way
to add some rustic sophistication to your backyard or patio.
If you're looking to go directly from A-ball to the Major
Leagues, however, only one option exists, my friend. A teak
patio set is the absolute no-miss, sure-fire way to take your
summer parties and barbeques to the next level. Teak is the
Cadillac of outdoor furniture with its superior weather
resistant qualities and it requires little to no care. This
Indonesian hardwood ages to a distinguished silvery-gray (just
like Clint Eastwood) and will provide a classy, sophisticated
setting for years of backyard revelry. |
