The holidays are over, unless for some strange reason you count Valentine's Day. But that only means our most favorite time of the year... Summer! In preparation for the cold season's inevitable drift into the fun hot Summer, we at Family Leisure have compiled Four Patio Furniture Ideas for 2014 sure to transform that empty deck, porch or patio into a comfortable outdoor room.
Our list offers four choices that should at least get your noodle thinking about making that outdoor space the best it can be. It not only offers patio furniture, but patio accessories you, family, friends, neighbors and pets (yes pets!) will love:
- The Salina Dining Collection by Leisure Select was introduced in late 2013 as an economical powder-coated cast aluminum option for those homeowners seeking the benefits of this trusted material and production process, but without the big-name price associated with major labels such as Hanamint and Gensun.
In fact, Leisure Select was created to offer the same quality, but by using direct imports with no middle companies. They can offer their products at reduced prices. The transitional Salina features a mix of classic style with modern touches. The clean design lines will look great in any setting, contemporary or traditional, while the materials are second to none.
Factory craftsmen use 100% cast aluminum, forming beautiful scrolls and curves. And each frame is nothing but cast aluminum, with no extruded metal. If the Salina doesn't fit your style or preferences, we at Family Leisure do recommend you stay within powder-coated cast aluminum. It lasts almost forever and looks magnificent.
The Salina Dining Collection is made by Leisure Select and comes in two different packages, one with an 84" oval dining table made to seat six people and a 65" square table made to seat eight people. It comes with a three-year finish warranty and looks great with the dramatic Sunbrella all-weather Jockey Red cushions.
- The Heart Citronella Torch by Leisure Select is the next item on our list. Yes, it is not patio furniture. Rather, this is a patio accessory, made to accent and create a setting out on the deck or patio.
And the function of the Heart Citronella Torch goes beyond providing light with the soft flicker of a flame. This backyard torch was made to repel insects, with citronella that can be reloaded when it runs out.
Place this torch out in the backyard or out on the patio front porch all summer; it's made from tough and durable cast aluminum which has been powder-coated for added strength.
The design is classic and beautiful. Antique-inspired motifs, such as the torch pole reeding and other design elements provide a high-end look without a huge high-end price tag. In short, the Heart Citronella Torch from Leisure Select packs huge style in a small, economic package!
- Wow! If you haven't seen the Garden Pavilion from Treasure Garden, prepare to be mesmerized. Garden Pavilions and Garden Tents can create an elegant oasis in any empty outdoor space. And this model offers a desert-style that reminds us of the tents used by Bedouin tribes on the Arab peninsula.
Place it over your patio with existing patio dining furniture, creating a hidden outdoor dining room for you and the family. Or try this cover placed near a swimming pool, with a comfortable daybed or set of deep seating patio furniture placed inside.
Escape sunbathing sessions or provide a swimming escape on the beach; the list is nearly endless when it comes to how you can use the Garden Pavilion by Treasure Garden. It's robust in size, at 12' by 12', features commercial-grade metal frames with a bronze powder-coated finish and looks great with basic, earth-toned colors. The canopy will cover 144 square feet.
- Woof! Woof! Your four-legged friends will go bacon-crazy for the Four Seasons Pet Shelter by Leisure Select. Update the traditional dog house look with a wicker design that is hot and modern!
Place it in the corner of the patio or maybe in a designated area in the backyard. Our dogs are basically family; why not give them an area to escape from the sun while you swim or sunbathe near the pool?
The design is modern and simple, with a black wicker roof and lovely mocha wicker on the exterior. The interior provides more than shade, with a comfortable pillow for your pet.
And the fear with past natural wicker was extreme wear and tear. But this pet patio furniture was made to last with cutting-edge materials. All-weather wicker is wrapped around steel frames for a durable product that will resist water and other outdoor elements. Keep your dog happy year round with the Four Seasons Pet Shelter by Leisure Selec
