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.

    Oh gosh, I think I would use this just about every day, especially in the summer! My son’s birthday is in a few months, so this would be especially useful and easy for the kids to dispense their own beverage! Thanks for sponsoring such a great giveaway!

    Hi Rhoda,
    Thank you and Frontgate for this awesome, summer giveaway. I love Frontgate and enjoy perusing through their catalog! We moved into a new home and have a new back patio which needs furniture… Hello, Frontgate… And I have a side cart I would use for entertaining with the beverage dispenser. I love that it’s larger and has the built in cooling factor. We love to entertain and would love using the dispenser year-round!
