All you’ll need is a small grill that you can easily start and a few chairs and a table. A barbecue is the perfect way to kick off summer and it allows you and your friends to gather over good food and enjoy each other’s company. You’ll want to be sure that you have enough seating for everyone and even if there isn’t enough seating on your patio, you can still keep the doors open and allow for an easy flow of communication and your guests can enjoy the fresh air while you grill.

#2 Relax and Unwind

For those that prefer to enjoy their patio for the peace and quiet, you can use your patio as a place to relax after a long day. You can turn your patio as an outdoor oasis and use it to enjoy your morning cup of coffee, or read a book after a long day. You’ll want to start by getting some cozy seating, whether it’s an outdoor sectional, or a hanging chair that you can swing in, being comfortable is key to relaxing. Next, you can add in some lighting that adds to the calming atmosphere and you can even get a table to hold your things or an area to rest your feet. The private patio offers the perfect place to enjoy the fresh air and unwind.

#3 Show Off Your Green Thumb

Of course, the main thing you may want to do with your patio is create a garden! You can get a variety of planters or create your own and fill them with a variety of plants from beautiful flowers to even herbs that you can use in the kitchen. You can turn your patio into a beautiful jungle of bright plants that will be the envy of your neighbors. Using your patio as a garden will not only create a beautiful oasis, but it can also save you money on fresh herbs and other foods that you can grow.
