Make the most of those lazy, hazy days of summer with decorating
and entertaining ideas for the outdoors. From atmospheric
enhancements like canopies and flower arrangements to lighting
designs, table fixings, and comfy seating, this is what it takes to
indulge fully in the summer spirit out on the porch, on the deck,
or in the backyard. Luscious, sunshiny photos present projects such
as pretty floral pillows; a porch swing slipcover; a painted
vintage metal chair; and a tablecloth and napkins stamped with
ferns. Get grilling basics; find ideas for summer bounty (zucchini
and basil); chill out in the shade with pineapple mint coolers; and
play yard games. You won''t ever want the summer to end.
