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.

    I love your heart for entertaining; it inspires me! Our house is on a parade route so this summer will be our second annual all day family porch party. I would use a beverage dispenser for that and for our game nights. It’s certainly classier than our plastic dollar store pitcher!! Good luck to everyone!

    This is a great outdoor entertaining idea – I love the chilled components and the stainless steel. This can be sued on any patio with any theme decoration. I can use this for the 4th of July and then for a baby shower and won’t need to worry about the “colors” not matching. I can use color in the beverage to match the event. Very nice!

    I would use it in different places. Indoors for bible class time refreshments. I use my double car garage as my “banquet” room for family or church dinners and party’s and my patio for cookouts. I really really could use it!

    I have an awesome porch area and just decided this year to spruce it up. I bought several plants, an outdoor plant stand and table that can double as a buffett. I would love to have some outdoor entertaining pieces to use in my new space. Can just imagine having neighbors and friends over to enjoy the space as much as we do!

    You outdoor patio is looking fantastic. I would use those for the bible study group we hold in our house every Sunday. It sure would come in handy! I would use it both inside and outside on our back porch which I hope to extend with a pergola in the next year.

    I would use this dispenser for our big family get togethers on Sunday afternoons on our back deck. We have the perfect place to set up a table with refreshments under a Japanese maple.
