Sometimes, little details can make a big impact, especially in welcoming a new look to your front porch of the home. A little bit of creativity goes a long way to have a massive transformation for any place. Take a look at your front porch – spend time with your spouse, and have a cup of coffee with him to enjoy your ideal evening after a long day. You can make it appealing!

Paint your Front Porch Door

What is the first thing that catches someone’s attention on your porch? It’s your door, and you can simply paint it off to make it look mesmerizing and eye-catching. It’s an inexpensive and easy way to exterior your front porch. When it comes to picking colours, adding accent bold colours will be great such as red, purple, or dark blue to add appealing tones.

Add Rugs

In addition, a rug that matches the theme is a great add-on decor for a perfect entry setup – it gives a friendly welcoming feel and also prevents dirt from going inside your house. Decorating your front porch with some flowers or plants is also a great option, such as placing a modern-style planter with your favourite plants, on both sides of the door to give evergreen vines to your guests

Incorporate Seating

Where can you think of spending your evening to have a happy-go-lucky home feeling? The porch is an amazing place to spend time reading, writing, reflecting, and hang out either early in the morning or after work. Therefore, setting up some seating or dining set is just as important. A rattan sofa and a loveseat sofa throw an immediate transformation to the front porch with a set of ottomans, which can be used for both seating and footrest purposes.

Place Low Coffee Table

Also, placing a low coffee table in the middle is essential too. You can décors with some table accessories, like a flower vase or other unique art pieces that can be added to set up the character of the porch. One note for that, since all the furniture will be exposed to light and moisture more than usual, it’s wise to choose a material like synthetic all-weather wicker or teak, to begin with.

Elevate with Decor

Your front porch is your ultimate ‘secret place’ to enjoy the birds chirping sounds, and escape from the busy world. To add a more natural feel to it, décor with some tropical plants which offer the taste of seasons. They can shade on your porch with their ability to handle the shining sun or heavy shade. Jasmine, for instance, the blissful aroma of blossoming petals give you the vine of having your own private spot. You can get as many seasonal flowers for your porch, for a more attractive look. It all can be done without having a green thumb – simply pick some plants that would grow with shade tolerance, since front porches are mostly covered or shaded area.

Painting your House Number

Apart from all of the beautiful outdoor furniture and flower planters, you can give your home an identity by painting your house numbers on each blooming flower planter. It is a great exterior hack, as it is simple, and affordable plus does not require much of your time to make it. Guests will find it a lot easier to locate your house when you are expecting them.

Spark your Nights

Creating shining sparks at night can certainly make your porch stand out more than others. However, safety matters too! No one wants to deal with all the wires of lighting, nor it is fun to do it. If you have some jelly jars that are no longer used, then it is time to get the easy hack out. With the combination of jars and candles, you can easily and inexpensively light up the entrance by hanging them on the door or ceiling. After the hot sunny day, house jar lanterns warm up the atmosphere to support you through the whole evening, and give your house the full-of-life vibe.

 

The DIY ideas are flexible and can be changed frequently, according to your house environment and your mood. Changing the theme once in a while gives you the opportunity to freshen up your porch and make it more alive.

Other than teak wood, powder-coated aluminium is also one of the best materials to use outdoors. It is highly durable and offers a variety of colours to match your outdoors theme. It is available in an asteroid, taupe, green and also white.

Image1 2

Image1 2

 

The perk of having a landed house is having your own garden or patio! The best part is of course decorating with a lot of herbs, flowers and not to forget your patio furniture. Your garden can be aesthetically pleasing while also functional by having outdoor furniture. Here are some top 5 outdoor pieces of furniture that we recommend you add to your garden and patio, and turn into the closest paradise you can go – right behind your house.

 

1. Bar Table And Chair

                                                                                                                   Classic Bar Chair

 

Ever thought of staying back and have a romantic dinner at home with your partner? Share a couple of drinks maybe? You can have your own bar setup at home easily.

 

What makes a bar set different from a regular dining set? The height. That’s right, you need to choose the bar set with counter height, as if how you will see at an actual bar. If you like to throw a party at home, chances are you will be moving your bar chair or table. The teak wood-made bar set is your choice for durability. It is water-resistant and easy to maintain.  Guests can also easily carry and rearrange the bar chair as they like – now all can enjoy a bonfire together while sitting next to their favourite people.

 

2. Single Seat Sofa

If you are a person who likes to spend time mostly outdoors, after a tiring day, then you must set up a sofa in your backyard, garden, pool or patio.

 

It is essential that you pick a material that will be dust, rough, weather, and water-resistant. Single seater sofa made of teak wood is a good choice for its low maintenance and high durability, especially with the ones with a high natural oil finish.

 

3. Bench as your patio furniture

                                                                                                           Classic Backless Bench

 

Love to chill with your friends at the back of your house? Consider adding a bench for your setup. A wooden bench made with teak is usually good for outdoor, as it’s durable to hold up a good amount of weight – you can fit as many people on one bench. You can also choose to have a bench with an arm or backrest. If you have small space, it’s best to go with the one without a back and armrest, as it only takes up minimal space. Stainless steel as the base is another choice, as it gives a different look and feels to your patio.

4. Lounger

                                                                                                                 Rivera Flat Lounger

 

Whether you are organizing a party with peeps or looking for relaxation, a sun lounger daybed can be the best idea for a piece of patio furniture to complement your porch or poolside.

 

Choose teak wood material for your choice of sunbathing chair, because the lounge chair is going to be placed either under the sun or by the pool. So the materials for your lounger need to be weather resistant – both water and direct sunlight. In addition, your cushion has to be water and odour-resistant material such as sunbrella – it is resistant to drizzling; even if it gets wet, it will dry out within an hour or so. However, it’s recommended to keep it indoors while raining.

 

The adjustable lounger can be considered as well for your greater comfort – you can lay down entirely to get yourself a good tanning session, or lift up to enjoy reading the newspaper or your favourite cocktails.

 

5. Outdoor Parasol

                                                                                                        Ocean Parasol Frame Round 300

 

Sometimes too much of a good thing can be harmful – specifically vitamin D. You don’t want to stay under the sun for too long, so having a parasol for your backyard can shelter you from the excessive amounts of UV rays.

Position it well right where you will be staying long – next to your sunbathing lounge chair or right above your dining table. Some of the loungers even come with a sunshade attached.

 

Choose Batyline sling – a weather-resistant fabric that is almost impossible to tear, a common material used for outdoor environments. The fabric-like material creates canvas flexibility, while protecting you from direct exposure to the sun. It’s resistant to water as well. This lightweight material will make your life easy when it comes to assembly and installation. Choosing a solid base to complement your parasol is just about as crucial – select heavy-duty material just as top grade #304 stainless steel to ensure its functionality, especially by the beach, where the wind can swipe up everything.

 

We have listed out the 5 most important pieces of patio furniture you can add to your garden, what do you think? Comment below if you have a better idea! We are glad to know more from you. 🙂

3 Reasons to Have A Teak Food Tray in Your Patio

Image3

Image3

 

Whether you agree or not, wood-crafted accessories offer a sense of artistic experience, even an item as simple as a teak food tray. People love the authentic and unbalanced look of wood, as compared to human-made materials like stainless steel or aluminium; it offers a sense of artistic experience to the surroundings. Especially if you have noticed, fine dining restaurants tend to serve their food with wooden food trays, as it adds another layer of luxury to their food.

 

Nevertheless, a wooden tray sometimes can give you a headache too, as it is naturally permeable because of its porous surface, thus liquid or moisture is its enemy, and unavoidably they both will make contact at some points – spilling of food or drink or cleaning the tray. The pores of wood create microscopic tunnels for bacteria to move from the surface down into the grain of the wood serving tray, and soon that particular tray will be rotting and fading; it looks gross and unsanitary, and it eventually ends up in your trash.

 

Ok, now you might be skeptical of using any wood for a food serving tray ever – wrong. There are many types of woods that you can choose to make the tray of. Teak, a premium type of wood, is what we recommend for you, specifically the treated teak wood. Below are the 3 reasons why you need to have one teak-made food tray for your home or restaurant business, as opposed to regular wood.

 

Image2 1

                                                                                                                 Nym Teak Tray

Ease Of Clean

If you own a teak food tray or any wood-made furniture, you know the struggle – you have probably been told not to clean with water, but it is hard sometimes trying to remove stains or dirt without water. However, since the treated teak has been properly processed for weather resistance, liquid simply cannot penetrate it. Therefore, cleaning treated and untreated wood is not as easy as one might think, as a small mistake can bring in a disaster or break your bank account again.

 

Additionally, as mentioned it is not permeable meaning any liquid or sauce can be removed quite easily, with a wipe. Whereas regular wood will quickly absorb the water and you will have a hard time eliminating the stains.

 

Sanitary

Due to the weather-resistant feature of the treated teak food tray, any harmful elements or bacteria like fungi or mildew will not take place on the surface. Therefore, there is no problem serving your food with the teak tray, and most importantly, your guests will feel delighted.

 

Moreover, it has become a style of displaying your food on a tray, especially in those self-service dining restaurants. The teak tray not only is capable of performing in such high traffic usage, with the natural oil finish for its shiny look, but it also offers a luxury dining experience to your guests.

                                                                                                   Oka Teak Tray – With Elevated Legs

Durable and Long Lasting

Teak is one of the top grades among all types of wood, and it is very much unbreakable from day-to-day use. Even if you dropped it accidentally, it will remain intact – suitable for a restaurant where usage is heavy.

 

With the solid quality and weight, one will feel much safer carrying food with a teak food tray, especially when carrying a heavy lot of stuff on top. Lastly, even though teak made tray costs more than a regular one, it is a long-term investment – it can help you to serve your customers for many years in the future.

                                                                                        Roundy Serving Tray with Removable Tray

 

We suggest getting a teak tray with a handle to increase the ease of use, and with the curved-up edges around the tray, you can prevent food from going off while using. Alternatively, a stainless steel handle will be best matched otherwise, as it can last just about as long.

4 Helpful Tips To Protect Your Outdoor Furniture From Rust

Image1

 

Image1

 

Metal-made outdoor furniture is commonly used for the outdoors. It is exquisite and alluring, and it upgrades the atmosphere of the patio. Metal furniture is tough with significant support – generally, it stands up well to climate changes and limits, so it requires no stress over the presentation of the components. In any case, metal is prone to rust, and this is one of the issues for your metal furniture.

 

Warmth and salty water also quicken the advancement of rust. In the event that one thing can ruin the magnificence of your metal patio furniture, it is rust. Fortunately, there are measures you can take to anticipate rusting. Following are valuable tips on counteractive action to rust.

 

1. Keep your Outdoor Furniture Dry And Clean

Whenever water or dampness sets on the metal furniture of your patio, it encourages the way toward rusting. Furniture made from metal has more excellent resistance to water impacts than other materials like wicker or wooden furniture. It is good to keep it dry as much as possible. If water remains on the furniture surface for a long period of time, this will encourage rust to settle in. It is always good practice to mop off any water with the assistance of a delicate cloth.

2. Wax Protects from Rust

A glue wax gives magnificent assurance from rusting on account of its waterproof capability. It also helps in keeping up the splendid aspect of your outdoor living furniture. Before applying any wax, it is necessary for you to keep the furniture clean. You need to hold up until the furniture is totally dry, before applying glue wax. Use a paintbrush to apply the wax on the surface of the furniture; be sure to reach the outreach places like splits and holes as it is important to wax each and every part. A small part unattended can lead the whole piece of furniture to ruination.

 

What about the painted furniture? If you have colourful lounges set up on your patio or garden, you can make a quick restoration by applying rust-proof paint with matching colours on them. Not only splashing a new layer of paint with rust proof gives new look, but also revives them with another shading and an extra layer of shield. Most importantly, keep them under observation more frequently and take action when needed.

3. Provide Adequate Cover

When you have finished applying the glue wax, permit adequate time to dry out properly before moving it to the next step – upholstery.

 

Keeping your furniture all warm and covered with a softly padded textile covers gives your furniture an astounding look and provides necessary security from harsh components like fog, dust, and the sun. Utilize pads, seat backs, and arm covers on your metal patio seats to decrease the presentation of dampness and warmth, which limits the rate of rust. Even furniture with glass tops like coffee or dining table is a good way to keep out of the UV rays by letting them through.

4. Keep It Covered When Not in Use

Metal furniture is viewed as rigid and can remain outside for longer periods. Nonetheless, it is a good habit to keep and protect your furniture with care, particularly when it is not being used. When winter knocks at your door, you do not sit outside for the fear of catching a chill in your bones. Therefore, providing shelter for this unused patio furniture and putting them under a shed or secured zone area, will protect them from the harsh components and weather. You can as well get a custom-made furniture cover, which is weather-resistant, to cover your outdoor furniture throughout these periods.

 

If you take a glance at the garden of almost every home and some places like the trees, bushes, and grass, you will undoubtedly discover metal – grill flame broils, handrails and fences are just a portion of the metal highlight the spaces outside of your patio entryways. On account of metal’s merited behaviour for durability, we don’t frequently consider the material’s upkeep necessities.

 

However, if the matter is about to rust, then it leads to the part of facing the mortal enemy. Homeowners must guarantee that their metal belongings like iron, aluminium, or steel, continue looking and playing out their absolute best and conceive a long-lasting period of life.

Chasing the shade is no longer the thing you do while you are a little kid; if you are not planning to get a parasol to provide you with some shade, you might need to move it as the sun moves. The same goes for chasing the sun for tanning, you will need to find yourself a good spot with an adequate amount of sunlight.

 

Therefore, having the option to move your it around is an important buying concern. Some loungers come with two rubber wheels on one end, and you can lift it up and it is ready to roll to your desired destination. Whereas some come with no wheels but fixed legs, and these are more suitable for you if portability is not your concern. Despite the reasons above, it is best to avoid natural elements as much as possible, especially if it is padded with cushions, in which you might want to keep it away from the rain. However, the lesser the moving parts, the longer it lasts – understand your need and spend your money wisely!

 

2. Adjustability

Having the option to transform your lounger into a daybed can be a good bonus. Sometimes you need tanning, you lay completely flat and enjoy the session; whereas other times you just want to spend your evening reading books, while catching some fresh air and ideas – either one requires different back angles.

 

Sun tanning bed with adjustable back is quite common as the demand for versatility is trendy. Some of them even come with an ergonomic design to fit your back comfortably,  suitable for those who don’t prefer a flat back. 

 

3. Padded Or Non-Padded

If you prefer soft and cushioned support, then padding it with a cushion is a must. Since it is for the patio, you have to make sure that the cushion has a weather-resistant feature or the cushion will be torn apart in no time.

 

The padded lounger has both pros and cons. If it is placed next to a swimming pool, in which condition you will most likely sit on the lounger right after some swimming, and the cushion can become nasty as it contacts with water – you might want to leave it without padding in this case. Although we have mentioned getting the cushion with weather resistant option, it is best to keep the cushion away from natural elements like rain and direct sunlight as much as possible, in order to maintain its best shape and quality in the long run.

 

If you wish to have both soft back support and ease of care, you can opt for Batyline-made lounger, which gives flexible support with no padding.

The most vital one for you to consider is the material. A wrong choice of material for your lounger can be devastating as the lounger ain’t cheap, and you will not wish to purchase them once every few months, just because it cannot last. Therefore, take your it as an investment which can serve you well for years.

 

The best lounger for an outdoor patio or swimming pool is constructed in treated teak, synthetic wicker, powder-coated aluminium, and stainless steel frame, each of these has its own style and features. For instance, a synthetic wicker-made can be stylish as it is flexible to form many shapes, whereas powder-coated aluminium is lightweight and easy to move around when needed. The teak wood-made lounger gives natural look and feels while stainless steel provides a firm base and support for all occasions.

 

All of these materials are meant for outdoor which can last for years of use without special care. They can be costly but in long run but it is worth the investment. To extend the lifespan of your teak lounger we’ve shared simple tips here!

Going out in the morning is excellent for your mental health and to make sure you get enough vitamin D. However, getting exposed to the sun directly for long hours, especially during the afternoon will affect your skin, health and even immune system. It helps if you have a physical shade with you such as a parasol to protect you from the harsh UV rays. Research has also proven that excessive amounts of ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun will have a negative impact on your health, such as severe sunburn or allergy. 

 

It is important to apply sunscreen every time you are exposed to the sun to protect your skin. However, if it is too hot say in the afternoon, you are advised to also use physical sunblocks such as a hat or an umbrella.

 You may have heard of a parasol, but you probably have no idea the difference between a parasol and an umbrella. They may look similar but it is two completely different item serving two different purposes. Unsure to get yourself a parasol or an umbrella? Let us help you! Here we will share some fun facts about these two life-saving inventions.


Material

It’s a portable and lightweight device that is made up of plastic or fabric that is stretched over a series of hinges. They are all connected to the central body, which is usually curved at the end for you to carry it with ease. When not in use, you can collapse it and transport it with you.

 

It is typically used to protect one from rain and wet weather, as well as the sun. Therefore, the fabric or the plastic is made up of waterproof material that the water will not penetrate. Nowadays the umbrella comes with some creative functions and designs, such as an extendable umbrella which can be shrunk to the size of your water bottle, or a cooling system inside the umbrella – not only does it provide shade for you, but also a breeze, how cool is that?

 

Design

If you look closely, the design of a parasol it a bit different compared to an umbrella. Umbrella is more concave looking while a parasol is straight. This is because it is mainly meant for providing shade as It is made up of thick fabric, it could be cotton or canopy fabric. Hence, it is only water-resistant and not waterproof.

 

If you like those ancient movie series, you must have seen Parasol before. It is usually used by loyal families or nobles and it is dedicated and pretty, especially in Europe. The origin of it goes back to ancient Egypt where the maids or bearers were holding parasols, which were made up of a big piece of palm leaf or feather, to shade their masters. You can hardly see anybody using it now though unless it is for wedding photography purposes.

However, you do see, probably have used another type of parasol before, which is a patio parasol. It is made for outdoor environments, which means it is made up of weather and stretch-resistant material like Sunbrella – it is a high-quality outdoor fabric sling commonly found in all outdoor upholstery. 

 

You can find it mostly at the beach, swimming pool and garden. It is huge and larger than an umbrella and usually can cover and shade more than one person at once. In addition, it is not meant to be portable and therefore has no handle at the end; instead, it is used with a parasol stand which is made up of wrought iron for its strong stability and resistance to wind.
