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.

Great news for one of YOU!!  

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

Here’s  a look at how the ice goes in the top tube which is inserted down into the dispenser.  More ice can be added to the bottom area too for super chilled beverages.

    I have four kiddos and it is a job to get them to drink their water on hot summer Colorado days. I would fill it up with fruit infused water and set it on the kitchen counter with some fun little cups (and a fun big one for momma) to encourage everyone to drink their water!

    Oh my goodness, we have a pool in the back yard where my teens regularly have friends over. This is perfect for putting out some nice healthy drinks that are available to all and stay cold while they hang out together!

    The most fun use would be on my new patio near the back of my lawn. Wow, will I be the ultimate hostess with my new Frontgate beverage dispenser that I hope to win from Southern Hospitality.

    This would be perfect on the deck for our annual friends and family party that we host each 4th of July. Sangria anyone? Awesome giveaway – thanks for the opportunity. My fingers are crossed!

    Love the beverage container! I would definitely be able to use it for get togethers on my patio. I love the feature of the ice being separate from the liquid!

    I love Frontgate and visit their outlet in Roswell often. I am always pleased with the items I pick up there. The beverage dispenser would be a great addition to my annual July 4 party. It has grown in number of guests over the years, so I could easily keep drinks available with this functional and efficient unit.
    Love your blogg Rhonda!
