TIKI IDEAS
CREATE LAYERS
Layer lighting by stringing bulb lights overhead and using natural flames with torches, citronella candles or table torches. Layer rugs, pillows and blankets around the entire space to create the ultimate cozy hang out. The conversation will naturally flow, and the pace of the day will slow so you can soak it all in.
HAVE A FIRE ELEMENT
Don’t underestimate the power of a natural flame. Line walkways with torches or use a statement piece to set the mood. Use torch fuel with proven repellency to keep away those unwanted guests (you know, the ones that bite), and keep the fire element going by adding citronella candles or table torches to any tablescape. These outdoor elements are durable and make setting the mood easy with a quick light.
LOOK FOR NATURAL ELEMENTS
Opt to include lots of natural elements like wood, ceramic, fire and stone. These items might be simple but collected they pull together the intimate, easygoing feeling.
COZY UP WITH A CUP OF COCOA
Sitting around an open fire is a wonderful treat in winter! Invite friends and cozy up around an outdoor Fire Pit for the best wintertime moments. Serve hot cocoa and sweet treats and wrap up warm.
