Start Your Backyard Staycation with the Right Outdoor Gear

Stay-at-home vacations or “staycations” are becoming increasingly popular. In addition to avoiding the hustle and hassle of travel, a staycation is also budget-friendly and easy to plan. In fact, you may decide not to plan anything at all. Comfy outdoor furniture will help you ease into relaxation mode, especially if you’re poolside with a cool drink. All you need for al fresco dining is a good BBQ, some classy dinnerware, and a nice outdoor dining table. That said, an outdoor fire pit would really cozy-up the evening. You could always spruce up your outdoor décor with cushions and candles too, just in case friends drop by. 

Alas, too much of a good thing can make one feel restless, especially if there’s kids in the house. Lawn games are fun for everyone, and an outdoor playset will keep small children occupied for hours. Your lawn and garden can always use some TLC, and if your to-do list includes painting or staining your deck, now is a good time. Depending on how much staycation time you have, you might even consider building that backyard fence or shed you’ve always wanted.

Inspiration is always handy
