Outdoor Entertaining with Frontgate + Giveaway!

SummerTime is here and the living is easy!

That’s what we all try to enjoy about summer and now that school is out for most and June is right around the corner, we’ll all be getting ready for more outdoor parties and entertaining.  I do enjoy this time of year so much especially now that I have finished the patio installation along with all the furniture that we’ll be enjoying and using out there.

With that, I know that I’ll be having some parties on the patio. It’s nice and spacious and can seat a lot of guests, so it will be fun to use.  That’s where Frontgate comes in.  We’ve been chatting and they sent me a gorgeous beverage dispenser which will come in handy on my potting bench on the patio, holding 3 gallons of beverages for guests.  What fun that will be!

I knew this potting bench would come in handy and be a great serving station out on the patio.  It’s perfect for that.

The Durachill beverage dispenser from Frontgate is so cool!  You know how beverages can become watered down when you have to put ice in there and leave it outside?  Instant meltdown.  These dispensers from Frontgate are stainless steel with compartments in the bottom and top that holds ice, keeping your beverages ice cold without diluting down the drinks.  Love that feature!

They also have some great Super Chill insulated serving pieces for outdoors that keep things super chilled too.  These serving trays pop open and ice can go underneath the metal, keeping whatever is on the tray super cold.

Yes, indeed, SummerTime is for easy living, that is for sure!  And watermelon is part of that for me. I love watermelon and all the summer fruits that go with this time of year.  To make my chalkboard sign, I copied this chalkboard printable with my own version with regular chalk, link here.  Just adds a fun touch to your table.

So looking forward to hosting a few gatherings in my backyard this year and getting out these serving pieces will be fun.

    I would use the dispenser while working in the yard. I would slice up lemons, lime, oranges, kiwi and other fruits. A very refreshing drink after mowing the yard.

    Hi Rhoda,
    Love your new patio! I would use this on my screened in porch for picnics and then for tail-gating this fall! Roll Tide!

    I would definitely use this on my back porch and in my kitchen. We entertain lots of kiddos during the summer and I’m thinking it would hold plenty of lemonade!

    I have a small patio just off my dining room with a table, chairs, etc. The beverage dispenser would be great for lemonade, iced tea, sangria or whatever when entertaining friends out there on a hot summer day or evening.

    Rhoda,
    Your patio looks fantastic! Yes, I would love to win the beverage/ drink dispenser! It would be just wonderful for my screened in porch when we entertain. I will be keeping my fingers crossed!

    We have a fabulous screened in porch on a creek that goes out to the bay to the gulf of Mexico. We use it every evening and enjoy sitting and many times seeing dolphin swim by our home. We have an antique table that the beverage/drink dispenser would be so perfect sitting on for entertaining which we do often. Great gift to share with someone.

    I would use mine on our back patio. We live in So Cal and have double sliding doors leading out to the backyard. With our mild temps, we throw open the doors and have lots of family gatherings for most months out of the year!
