January just hits differently.
As we breathe a sigh of relief that the Christmas logistics have ended, we can also give a collective cheer that the best is yet to come!
Whether it's beers on the porch or ice cream by the pool, now is the time to soak up the sun and blissfully exist in the dreamy life limbo that is January.
Entertaining in high-summer is a more relaxed, casual and impromptu affair than any other time of year- still a little preparation goes a long way.
Our outdoor areas tend to be the last places to receive attention when we're busy, but we want these spaces in tip-top shape for all those summer soirées.
So, we've created the ULTIMATE LIST to RIZZ up your space with 5 SUPER-QUICK-BUT-HIGHLY-EFFECTIVE-EASY-TO-ACHIEVE-IDEAS to make you the host with the most, with the least effort.
First Impressions
Welcoming guests starts with the invite, even if it's a quick text.
Each interaction from that point forward builds anticipation. Creating an inviting entrance to your home is a great way to keep those good vibes rolling.

Outdoor Kitchen
Shlepping utensils, cleaning things and basic cooking items out to the BBQ each time is a pain.
Get a small kit of essentials ready and deposit them out there for the summer. Hold tongs, spatulas and other bits and bobs in a set of planters.
Fire Pit
A fire pit is (ahem) a surefire way to add fun and excitement to your backyard.
In Victoria and Tasmania, they're also a way to ensure your guests remain toasty on those "unseasonably" cold nights that catch us off-guard, but by now, probably shouldn't!
Outdoor Textiles
Having a great outdoor table and ample seating is a MUST. Add comfort and luxury by layering textiles using cushions, tablecloths, napkins and placemats. These will help form a sense of occasion.
Deck-oration
Define your outdoor living space, whether a deck, verandah, patio, balcony or garden with pot groupings. These will offer the opportunity for greenery and create some semblance of walls.
