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.

    What a great design! I would use the drink dispenser at our country cabin. We spend most weekends out there and always need a cool drink. Thanks for the give-away!

    I would use the beverage dispenser on the covered porch at our mountain home. We spend hours sitting out there with our guests just enjoying God’s creation. I have been looking at getting a potting bench for there, too – yours looks great!
    Frontgate has some wonderful innovative products. I have enjoyed everything I have bought from them.

    I would use it for any parties we might host. And specifically, my daughter’s birthday is this summer and it would be perfect for lemonade for the kiddos!

    Rhoda, I would love a drink dispenser to use on the new deck we put in a few years ago. The old one had become shabby and wobbly and it was definitely time to make a change. Every time the builder asked my husband if he wanted to upgrade this or that, he said yes, so it ended up costing what our WHOLE HOUSE cost 38 years ago. We bought Frontgate furniture to put out there, and now I am in the odd position of having a deck that is fancier than my house!

    This will be great for entertaining outside on our deck. We live near the beach so we do a lot of summer entertaining.

    I love, love, love this beverage dispenser, the style is like no other that I’ve seen before. I would use it inside and out year round here in AZ.
    I love your patio make over, the pavers are so classic and the new furniture looks amazing!
