I love hanging out in my backyard during every season.

No need to run inside when the weather cools off.

I’ve mixed vintage finds, boho accents and classic outdoor furniture with the world’s cutest s’mores station to give my yard an inviting feel.

What are you waiting for? Grab a seat an apple cider and a marshmallow for roasting (full source list at end of post).

My girls have been begging me for a fire pit for years so when I found the perfect fire pit HERE, I was excited to build a fun hang out spot around it.

The fire pit is already getting tons of use and I love the fact that I can leave it out all year long as it develops a beautiful patina and it’s guaranteed never to rot. It comes in a few sizes too – I got the 36″ one.
