How to Enjoy Your Backyard during Fall

alisa-anton-166247.jpg
Even though the summer’s officially over, that doesn’t mean you have to lock yourself in the house. Actually, the fall is the best season to spend some time outdoors: it’s less humid, no allergens, no bugs and the colors are amazing. So, don’t give up on your backyard just yet! However, there are some tips and tricks you can do to make your garden even more beautiful and comfortable during fall. Let’s take a look.  

Make it cozy and warm

Don’t put your outdoor furniture in the storage just yet, especially if it’s under a roof. The only thing you need to do is copy many European restaurants: take out some blankets, pillows and a heat lamp or a fire pit, and voila! Now you can stay warm and cozy while you chill outside with your friends and family. Besides keeping you warm, fire pits and heat lamps also provide some extra light, and colorful blankets make for a nice decorative touch. Also, don’t forget to make some mulled wine to keep you warm long into the night.

Fall decorating

Everything looks better with some decoration, even fall, so check out some lovely accessories that The Furniture Shack offers - they will make your patio cozy and adorable. For instance, you can install some extra lighting for those dark nights. String lights and cute lanterns are especially popular these days. Another cool way to decorate your backyard is to add a rug to your patio that will instantly bring in some warmth. Unfortunately, when the weather gets cold, you can’t really enjoy those beautiful summer flowers anymore. Decorate your backyard with different vases, planters and pots and fill them with fall flowers that are even more beautiful.

Have fun with your kids

Let your kids enjoy fresh air even when the temperatures are a bit on the lower side. Fall is a beautiful time of the year and there are so many new things to see, learn and explore. There are new textures, colors and plants for them to examine and play with. You can organize fun activities you can enjoy together. Try painting fall nature, making jack-o-lanterns, collecting pinecones and chestnuts and running around in fallen leaves.

Give it a romantic vibe

Fall can be a very romantic season, so don’t miss a chance to enjoy it with your significant one. If you decorate your deck in fall decor and colors, it will further enhance the look of your patio. Music also helps create a special mood, so get some outdoor speakers and you’ll be able to play your favorite tunes and even have a slow dance. You can also put out a few designer candles in different sizes that will transform your backyard into a romantic oasis for two. There’s nothing better than enjoying a glass of red wine in your partner’s arms while watching the moon and stars.

Keep it clean

If you want to enjoy your beautiful backyard to the fullest, make sure to maintain it regularly. Grab a ladder and clean your gutters. You should also grab your lawn mower and give it a nice trim one last time before winter. Once you’ve taken care of your lawn, you can also pay some attention to your deck. Give it a deep clean with a pressure washer and a brush and, after you’re done, seal or stain your deck for the ultimate protection. This way, when the spring comes, your patio will be ready for a new season of outdoor parties and al fresco dinners. Even though these chores are boring, they’ll pay off tenfold.
So, don’t let the cold weather ruin your outdoor fun. If you implement some of these tips and tricks, your backyard will be cozy, warm and ready to be enjoyed long into the fall.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...
