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.

    It would be great to use on my back deck. I’m looking forward to some serious entertaining this summer.

    We have a brick patio in the back (that needs to be pressure washed!) but it’s the perfect spot for this.

    Using the Durachill will make my two highschool seniors graduation party run much more smoothly. We typically enjoy sitting on our screened in front porch, or in our back yard when we BBQ.

    Love the drink dispenser! I would use it on our back deck. We spend a lot of time out there from the spring through the fall months. It’s the perfect place to entertain.

    Our deck – sunny, warm breezes – entertaining on the deck right off of the kitchen is a no brainer for me. Thank you for the chance.

    I have the perfect spot on my patio and the perfect party planned. My family will be celebrating our Boxer’s first birthday on July 4th. I love the dog beds featured on Frontgate’s website. Maybe Jaxx will get one for Christmas. Your patio looks fabulous!

    Because of a severe hail storm several weeks back, I am getting new roof, including a new patio covering. I am going to take advantage of the new covering & also redo my patio to make a more inviting, cozy cottage outdoor room! I’ll use the Durachill dispenser in my new outdoor room.

    I would use the dispenser every chance I get! For summer, on the deck watching the kids play and for the holidays, inside on the dining room buffet to keep the drinks cool.

    Durachill thought of everything when they designed their beverage dispenser! It will be perfect on our covered porch for those gatherings of family and friends that go with summertime living in the south! Thanks for sharing this wonderful line of products in your blog; you keep us informed in so many ways, Rhoda!

    We just bought a grill for our back patio and now we’re out there all the time. Having a drink dispenser would be a great addition to this area.
