7 Summer Must Haves for Your Outdoor Space

 It’s finally here... SUMMERTIME! All this beautiful weather and time off means cookouts and holidays will be moving outside. Is your backyard ready? Here are a few of our favorite summer finds to help spruce up your outdoor space. Check out our Outdoor Décor Ideabook on Houzz.com for even more fun suggestions!

 1. Ikea Applaro/Hosten Table and Chairs

For doing outdoor on a budget, Ikea is a great place to shop. This table and six chair set goes for $608.99. What a steal! The white powder-coated steel chairs are an unexpected partner with the wood table. It is a stylish combination of industrial and earthy while still maintaining Ikea's traditionally chic design.

This outdoor swing from Pier 1 is amazing! It features an airy, open-weave back and side compartments for a drink. The all-weather synthetic rattan is extremely durable and it can be hung from a separate chair stand or from a porch ceiling.

5. Anthropolgie Sumatra Cabana

 Does your outdoor oasis need a cabana? This Sumatra Cabana is made of wood and cotton and is clearly not your average cabana. With orange fringe detailing on the sides and bead detailing across the top this is the ultimate hangout for hiding from the sun! Add a few accent pillows, an icy cold lemonade and VOILA!

This Awing Stripe Sundial Chair is a personal favorite. It makes a bold statement with a classic print. It swivels, sits comfortably, and is made entirely for outdoors. It's the perfect way to glam up your outdoor space!

I'm off to Guatemala this Saturday and then vacationing in Quogue, NY with my family shortly thereafter. I will be MIA for a little bit but have no fear, I will be back!

In the meantime, remember to slow down and ENJOY your summer!
