It doesn't take much to create a paradise in your own backyard. With the right supplies, your
home's deck and patio can be transformed into an outdoor living room. Whether you're looking to outfit a deck with comfortable couches and chairs or add a lavish hot tub just steps from your door, Groupon can help you make the most of your backyard with an ever-changing inventory of patio and garden supplies.
Make It Look Good
The best backdrop to a deck and patio is a well-tended
lawn or garden. To help you grow a verdant landscape, stock up on gardening equipment and
lawncare tools—plus sheds, hose reels, and other
outdoor storage options. A garden is not only plants and flowers, though—it's also the
garden decor you use to spruce it up, such as flags, inflatable lawn decorations, or a whimsical fire pit cover.
Make It Entertaining
The only limit to outdoor living—well, besides your acreage—is your imagination. If you have the space, a
pool can be the centerpiece of summertime celebrations. Cozier yards might be better suited to a
fire pit for fall hangouts. If you're looking to cook with fire, though—not just sit and admire it—Groupon stocks a variety of
grills and outdoor-cooking accessories. Just remember the
outdoor lighting; that way the party doesn't have to stop when the sun goes down.
Make It Relaxing
While kids may see the patio and garden as places to romp—especially with outdoor toys such as dart blasters and water guns or sandboxes—adults see them as a place to relax. A fully outfitted patio makes a great spot to chat with the family or simply watch the birds gather around the bird feeders during your morning coffee. Groupon's selection of patio furniture spans a range of functions and styles, from wicker tables to modern waterproof upholstery to metal bistro tables and chairs. For the ultimate upgrade, consider installing a full-size hot tub or outdoor spa.
