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. Â 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. Â That’s where Frontgate comes in. Â 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. Â What fun that will be!

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

The Durachill beverage dispenser from Frontgate is so cool! Â You know how beverages can become watered down when you have to put ice in there and leave it outside? Â Instant meltdown. Â 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. Â Love that feature!

They also have some great Super Chill insulated serving pieces for outdoors that keep things super chilled too. Â 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! Â And watermelon is part of that for me. I love watermelon and all the summer fruits that go with this time of year. Â To make my chalkboard sign, I copied this chalkboard printable with my own version with regular chalk, link here. Â 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.

Great news for one of YOU!! Â
Frontgate is giving one of my readers their very own Durachill Beverage dispenser too. Â This 3 gallon dispenser holds a lot of liquid, so you can entertain a crowd in style.

We just built a new patio. This would be a wonderful addition to our parties. Great design concept on these products.
I would use it in the back yard for entertaining during the hot Atlanta summers.
I would use it out by the pool. We are hosting a friend’s Birthday party in August and while everyone won’t be swimming…they WILL all want nice cold beverages.
What an amazing giveaway! I would use my beverage container on my bar cart…filled with homemade strawberry lemonade;)
The Frontage drink dispenser would look beautiful on my covered porch!
You are so lucky to partner with Frontgate! I would love to own ONE OF EVERYTHING in their catalogs..Thanks for the opportunity to win a great beverage dispenser.. We have just purchased a new home on the beach, and the Durachill would be an ideal drink dispenser for parties or to set up for the grandkids on the patio, who constantly want something to drink while outdoors. Enjoy your beautiful deck. I truly enjoy your daily blogs
This is perfect on my kitchen counter or outside for the kids as a healthy alternative to sugary drinks. I have kids here constantly playing basketball and they would love the access outdoors without running inside the house. Of course, I would love to use it on my deck for adult gatherings as well! Great ideas everyone!
This would be perfect for our back porch at the Lake!
Good morning! I would use this ingenious beverage server on the back porch of our new home. We sit out there with our friends and family and enjoy the view of the water and the southern breezes!
We would use it on our porch at the lake all summer.
What a great idea putting the ice in the top of the Durachill dispenser. I am in the process of selling my home but when I buy the next house I hope to find one with a patio/deck/sunroom where I would use these items when we have family gatherings.
I love everything you did with your home including the outdoor spaces. What an inspiration your parents are for living an active lifestyle! Summer entertaining is casual and easy and now that we are empty nesters we are trying to do more of it with friends who are also finding themselves with more time.
I have a potting bench too, it will be the perfect place for that beautiful beverage dispenser!
At our cabin …we history lots of get togethers in the summer and fall!! Pick me!
I love the idea of not having to water down my drinks. Quick picnics on the patio after church on Sunday are a great way to spend time with family and friends. The drink dispenser would be great to use out there and for holidays.
An outside party for my 90 year old mother-in-law.
Outside on our back porch or a fun afternoon having a picnic with my family.
On my patio on Cape Cod…the beverage dispenser would be perfect!
I’d use it for church suppers.
I have a beautiful patio and deck. I don’t have a snazzy blue potting bench that poses as a server, but I do have a glass buffet that we use outside and that beverage dispenser would look divine on it!
