Is it just me or do men like decorating as much as women love shopping? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I've been in the recreational business for a long time that I have made it my business to create areas of recreation even in our own home? I have become my family's very own "exterior" designer because I love designing spaces around our pool area, our lanai and even our patio.
Just recently I was eyeing some patio furniture dining sets. Yes, our good old dining set is still fine, but wouldn't it be nice to eat out on a warm, balmy or star-filled night?
Patio furniture dining sets are also perfect when entertaining friends wanting a cook-out or a barbeque out in the lawn or near the pool. As a matter of fact patio furniture dining sets can also be used as work or writing tables or even study tables for kids whenever their friends or schoolmates come over for group study.
There are actually a lot more uses for patio furniture dining sets aside from dining on them. One of my kids uses ours as a computer table to put her laptop on when she feels the urge to get out of her room while tweeting or just plain surfing.
What's more patio furniture dining sets could be just what one needs to fill up an empty space in their garden or backyard. Why settle for just any other piece of furniture to decorate your space with when you can have a multi-purpose table and a set of chairs that is nice-looking enough to be a decoration and at the same time is fully-functional as any ordinary table or chair?
Have you seen what types of patio furniture dining sets there are in the stores? They now come in a variety of materials. There's powder-coated aluminum, bamboo, wrought iron, and treated hard wood. So whatever theme you are going for, you are sure to find a number of patio furniture dining sets to go with your design theme.
We went for Asian-oriental this time and we found around three patio furniture dining sets that we liked and would go well with our other Asian-oriental furniture pieces. Of the three patio furniture dining sets we chose one made out of powder-coated aluminum with curlicues that looked similar to the design on a Chinese curio cabinet we once saw. We went for aluminum because it will be out on the lawn most of the time and we wanted it to be able to withstand the elements or the splashes of water, in case we decide to move it to the pool area.
Check out the patio furniture sets available in your area. Who knows you might be inspired to be your own family's "exterior" designer as well. In my case, it started with our swimming pool and went on to include landscaping, pumps and filters, pool area furniture and even pool toys. You can say I never looked back after we got our pool installed. One "decorative" piece just led to another.
