Outdoor Area
02 Jun

As the cooler season kicks in, your outdoor living area might not be getting the attention that it deserves! With less and less people opting to snuggle up in the comfort of their homes to escape the chill. What if we told you that the hard work you’ve put into your outdoor area in the warmer months, doesn’t have to go to waste in Winter? We have 5 easy ways you can enjoy your outdoor living space this Winter. 

Add a little sparkle with some fairy lights

Have a little fun with decorating this Winter and invest in some fairy lights! These lights are an inexpensive and easy way to jazz up your outdoor space! From jar string fairy lights to rope lights, there’s plenty of options to choose from. So if you’re looking for a way to make your outdoor space a little more inviting this winter, we’d recommend adding a little sparkle to your space! 

Gather round a fire pit

Looking to spend a little more time outside but can’t stand the cold? The addition of a fire pit to your backyard is a great way to chase away the chill! Not only can a fire pit keep you warm, it also adds a stylish touch to any outdoor area! With a ton of varieties to choose from this accessory can keep you warm throughout Winter so you can take full advantage of your outdoor area. 

Buy some blankets and throws

Blankets and throws are a must-have for keeping warm and cosy! Many of us have our blankets stocked away in the cupboard just waiting for Winter to come. Well it’s here! So get those blankets out and add them to your outdoor lounge. The addition of a blanket helps create a cosy and warm outside area. We’d suggest throwing large cushions to accompany them to add that extra bit of comfort. 

Invest in high quality outdoor furniture 

There’s nothing worse than having your favourite outdoor furniture destroyed by Winter moisture! If your outdoor furniture just isn’t withstanding the elements we’d recommend investing in high quality furniture that’ll last all year long. Our Nardi range is perfect for adding a little colour to your backyard. If colour isn’t what you’re looking for this Winter, we’ve got plenty of other furniture options including aluminium, teak and resin polypropylene.

Here at Daydream, we are passionate about providing stylish and high quality outdoor furniture. Contact our friendly team today or check out our range here.

You might think that folding picnic tables are just for summer, but you would be wrong! Our picnic tables are perfect for the winter season, helping you to make the most out of the cooler weather for a variety of different occasions.

Our picnic tables provide a stable surface that can be quickly folded away and brought out when needed. They provide additional stable surfaces for wine, drinks and snacks, anywhere and at any time. Pop one in your caravan or camper trailer, keep one in the back of your 4WD or Ute for when you go to the beach or store one in the garden shed.  You never know when you will need to use our folding picnic tables!

So, here are our 5 top winter season ideas for using your folding picnic table!

  1. Keep everyone warm with a fire pit

When the cooler winter evenings start to draw in, Aussies look to their fire pits! There is nothing quite like a roaring outdoor fire for making everyone feel warm and friendly. Everything seems perfect when you sit around a fire pit. However, it could get even better when you can keep your food and drinks safe and within arm’s reach of a folding picnic table. Take our picnic tables camping or set them up around the fire pit in the garden – they are perfect for entertaining.

  1. Create your relaxing spa at home

Just imagine a long relaxing soak in your fabulous spa sanctuary at home, allowing the hot water to wash away the day’s stress and worries. Hot spa baths in summer are great, but in winter they seem to be both luxurious and decadent! The problem is – where do you put your wine? Well, our handcrafted picnic tables are perfect for the job because they fit right next to your bath and hold everything you need to create your very own spa sanctuary.

  1. Take the stress out of kid’s sporting events

Winter is the season for an abundance of kid’s sports and parents end up transporting their kids from one activity to another in a never-ending circle! Just imagine how useful a folding picnic table will be at these events! Parents can keep all their kid’s snacks and drinks in one place and not left strewn around the back of the 4WD. Plus, glasses won’t get spilled, and there’s somewhere to keep the car keys, phones and anything else that is needed on the day which often gets lost.

  1. Home entertaining is a breeze

When you have run out of table space for your BBQ or dinner and when friends and family are ready to eat, pull out your handcrafted folding picnic table and look like a professional! Picnic tables are ideal for increasing tablespace, and since they come in different sizes, the smallest models can easily fit on your table and take the place of a lazy Susan.

  1. Add some culture to fishing trips

When everyone wants to head off for a day’s fishing, the one item that is always missing is somewhere to put everything! Whether you need a stable spot for drinks and food or somewhere handy to keep the bait, knives, thermos or beer – our trusty picnic tables are perfect for the job. They take up hardly any room in the Ute or 4WD and can be put up and taken down fast. Just wipe them over to remove any stains, and they are good to go on your next fishing trip.
