Staying outdoors is what we all enjoy, especially in spring and summer when the weather is great, there’s a lot of sunshine, fresh air and bright colors and blooms. If you are a happy owner of a garden and want to have meals outdoors, make a garden dining zone for that. Such a dining space is very inviting, you may receive your guests there and just have a meal or a drink with friends and family. How to make a cool one? Here are some ideas.
Placement
Choosing a right place in your garden is the key to success, so be careful with this point. I’d recommend some spot under the trees as they will prevent you from excessive sunshine and will let you hang some lights on the branches. Another idea is some picturesque corner of your garden, with blooming bushes or trees, such a space will be great for having tea or coffee there.

Furniture
Take a look at the indoor spaces to come up with the style for outdoors – if this is the same style, you will have a merging effect on, and if not – go for at least something more or less corresponding. Vintage, shabby chic and rustic are the most popular styles for designing outdoor dining zones but if you aren’t ready for them, choose what you like – Scandinavian, boho, contemporary, minimalist or any other. Vintage and shabby chic spaces are often done with simple folding or non-folding metal and wood furniture, rustic spaces can feature rattan, wicker, wood and again some painted vintage garden furniture. Modern, Scandinavian, boho spaces can feature wicker and wood, too, but with a proper design – clean lines, sleek surfaces and curved items.

Accessories And Light
Provide enough light in the space if you are going to stay here at night, too. These can be lights hanging down from the trees, candle lanterns around the table and on it, too, special outdoor lamps of various kinds and so on. Place some citronella candles, you know how bugs can spoil the fun. Accessorize your furniture with comfy blankets, cushions and pillows to make it softer and more comfortable and add a cozy feel.
