How to Create a Cosy and Inviting Outdoor Living Space
Winter is coming… but don't let the dropping temperatures confine you indoors for the next few months. There are many ways to help you make the most of your MOJO outdoor living area, no matter the weather. This is why we have created 6 simple ways for you to make the most of your MOJO outdoor living all year round.
Extend your outdoor season with heaters
It is better to enjoy the outdoors in those cooler months when you can be toasty warm. Stay warm outdoors with various heating options such as portable or permanent electric heat strip heaters to attach to the roof, or if you prefer potable heating, gas heaters are the answer. MOJO offer a range of ‘hot’ fireplace options as an upgrade for that added luxury. If you want to feel hot in your Outdoor Living space, chat to one of our New Home Consultants to see how this would suit your selected plan.
Create a cosy vibe
Create a cosy atmosphere with fluffy pillows, throws, and soft blankets draped over your outdoor furniture. It is the perfect setting to enjoy a glass of wine, or 2, and if you are feeling extra snug, a hot chocolate will do the trick. If you are still feeling like some extra warmth is needed or just after the extra warm feeling, place a few tealight candles around which will provide that cosy vibe. As a bonus, they will also create a great aroma enveloping the outdoor space.
Illuminate your space
With early nightfall now in full force, illuminate your outdoor area with fairy lights, path maker garden lights, or up-lights for that slight glow to create a warm and inviting ambiance. Invest in outdoor lighting to give your outdoor space a Christmas in July feel, which everyone will enjoy.
Enhance your space with Weatherproof furniture
Invest in weatherproof furniture made from durable materials like powder-coated steel and polyresin wicker to withstand the chilly nights. Don't forget to bring in the cushions, throws and fluffy blankets undercover for added protection from any harsh weather conditions.
Keep the barbie lit this Winter
There is no reason for the BBQ to not be lit in these cooler months. By creating warmer dishes like roasts, and stews, this will keep everyone happy, even the BBQ. Switch up the menu whilst improving your BBQ skills by trying the latest trend of smoking meats.
Fire pit season
Extend your outdoor living into the night with a fire pit. Gather around the fire for late-night conversations and grab some marshmallows for an added touch of warmth, an atmosphere you cannot beat and even help relax you off to sleep with crackle and pop of the blazing fire. Getting comfy by the fire will make you believe the cold never bothered you anyway.
