• The fall season is a special time for any homeowner. It’s a

season that brings cooler temperatures and vibrant shades

of red and orange, dressing the outdoors with a relaxed

and cozy atmosphere.

• This means preparing ahead of time to make sure your

outdoor space remains tidy, safe, and easy to enjoy.

• It’s a perfect opportunity to revisit your outdoor design

and set up a more fall-centric layout, keeping your home

beautifully festive throughout the changing seasons.

• Gazebos have grown to be a popular addition to many

homes, helping create an intimate exterior space to enjoy the

changing weather with friends and family.

• Gazebos come in many shapes and sizes, and serve as an

easy way to transfer your fall style outdoors with a structural

template for fall accessories and colors.

• A great benefit of gazebos is that they can be utilized all

year. They help create a cozy and comfortable outdoor area,

perfect for the closeness the fall season inspires.

• Pergolas are known to be very adaptable to

accessorizing, much like the gazebo. They are

generally used as either standalone structures or

home extensions.

• Pergolas provide your space with shade during

the day and privacy at night. Pergolas are

commonly designed in a way that mixes with

natural elements like shrubs, flora, and other

foliage to blend with your garden area.

• Aside from pergolas being low maintenance,

they can be modified to house other festive

décor, furniture, and seating accommodations.

• Cabanas are usually thought of as a luxury structure,

commonly seen at hotels or poolside resorts. Although this is a

popular outdoor structure for leisure and relaxation, many

cabanas are well-suited for private use.

• During the fall season, cabanas can give you and your visitors

an abundance of privacy and comfort.

• The presence of a cabana in your outdoor space provides

your home with a memorable look of elegance and tranquility.

• Similar to a pergola, a ramada is a freestanding structure,

but also includes a closed roof. This is very beneficial during

colder seasons because the roof closure helps trap heat

within the ramada, giving your family and guests a relaxed

and snug social atmosphere.

• Traditional ramadas were built for sun protection in

warmer climates, but today, ramadas offer a wide selection

of designs specific to any seasonal occasion.

• Ramadas are especially great for festive parties and get-

togethers with family and friends, since they are capable of

sheltering a large open space.

• Sunrooms provide your family and friends with a

serene environment of refuge. Sunrooms also come in

a range of sizes and styles.

• Gardening is a popular use for a sunroom, allowing

you to cultivate your plants throughout the year,

protecting them from harsh weather. This is a great

way to not only improve the look of your home, but

also your quality of life.

• The windows that surround sunrooms give your

family and guests a space of tranquility, without

trading in the vibrant fall atmosphere.

• A popular place to stow away holiday decorations and

seasonal clothing, an expertly built shed is primarily thought of

as the ultimate option in outdoor space storage.

• With that being said, sheds can be used for so much more

than housing boxes. They come in many sizes and designs,

perfect for a workspace or leisure room away from the house.

• A shed can also add a new dimension to your outdoor

space, as well as keep your patio chair pillows safe from

wind, rain, and snow throughout the colder months.

• Decorating for fall is a fun and

exciting time of year. Extending your

indoor style outdoors is all about

balance and symmetry.

• It’s important to take into

consideration the actual materials your

outdoor decorations are made of.

Materials like wicker or wood can

handle most cooler temperatures and

weather conditions, especially if they

are treated with a sealant.

• A traditional and affordable form of

decoration has always been the use of

floral arrangements. Brighter hues of red,

orange, and yellow give great contrast

to the natural cooler colors of bare trees

and snow covered ground.

• Plenty of vegetables can be grown

in cooler temperatures, and are, in

fact, intended primarily to be planted

for fall weather.

• Spinach, arugula, and other types of

lettuce germinate and mature quite

quickly in cooler temperatures.

• Generally, however, much of your

fall garden preparation starts in mid-

summer. Depending on your location,

you may experience an earlier fall frost

or perhaps more sporadic weather

changes. In this case, preparation time

should be specific to your climate.
