1. A palm leaf woven outdoor rug that'll make you feel like you're lounging around somewhere on a faraway tropical island, when really, you're just in your backyard. The fun pop of color will instantly brighten up your patio and the weather-proof material ensures durability, rain or shine.
2. A set of solar flower string lights to turn your backyard into a whimsical fairy garden. There's nothing like sitting outside by the glow of twinkly lights, especially when they're this cute. Arrange them in a flower pot, around an umbrella pole or in a lantern, they'll look magical anywhere you use them.
3. A pack of eight color-coded marshmallow roasting sticks for the most epic summer bonfire nights. The sticks are extendable and have a fork end which means you can roast ~s'more~ marshmallows at the same time.
4. An outdoor egg chair with a comfy cushion you can sink into and take one of those long Sunday afternoon naps. The chair comes with the stand and the cushion and you better claim it first, because it's going to be the spot everyone fights over this summer, you've been warned.
5. A metal outdoor garden stool to hold your drink, snacks, phone, book, and sunscreen. The adorable table is the perfect size to put next to a chair or loveseat, and besides being super convenient, it'll add a bright splash of color to your outdoor space.
6. An oval galvanized tub for your next backyard BBQ. Fill it with ice, add the drinks, and you're party-ready. The leather handles make it more comfortable to carry and the shiny white exterior gives it such a fresh look, like you're summering at your lake house, throwing a fancy pool party.
7. An embroidered outdoor throw pillow to greet you after a long day at the office that you spent daydreaming about laying out in the sunshine. You can never have enough throw pillows, and this cutie is the perfect addition to your collection this season.
8. A set of four shatterproof stemless wineglasses that look so elegant you'd never be able to tell they're plastic. Stop worrying about wineglasses shattering all over the place every time a strong wind blows and get this set that'll make outdoor entertaining so much easier.
9. An electric mini personal fan you can attach to your umbrella or hammock stand and stay cool even during an unbearable heat wave. You can choose from three wind speeds and the fan is rechargeable and lasts for up to five hours once fully charged. That's five ~breezy~ hours of chilling in your hammock.
10. A wood burning fire pit because is there anything that creates a better ambience than a crackling fire on a cool summer night?! For under $50, this is a total steal — the fire pit is lightweight and easy to move around, the perfect size at 28-inches and comes with a mesh spark guard for when the night is over.
11. A freestanding hammock that's guaranteed to be your favorite purchase of the summer. And possibly ever. If you've always wanted one but there isn't a tree in sight around you, this solves the problem! It's actually large enough for two people, that is, if you want to share.
12. A set of three melamine serving dishes to serve your backyard picnic faves in style. If you eat pretty much every meal outside, you'll get so much use out of this set: it includes an oval platter, a round serving bowl, and a serving tray, all of which have a nice weight to them and are dishwasher safe.
13. A wicker loveseat and ottoman set that'll be your WFH and OOO location for the foreseeable future. With your feet up, drink in hand, sunscreen on, preferably. Ahh...perfection.
14. An electronic bug zapper so you can sit outside without getting eaten alive by every mosquito around. Reviewers rave about how well this works and what a difference it makes within just minutes of using it. Bye, mosquitoes, byeeee.
15. A pool float to lounge in your pool for hours and days on end. Besides having an adorable tropical print, the float is under $2, so how could you not get it?
16. A pine wood wind chime because is there anything more relaxing than dozing off to the sound of wind chimes swaying in the gentle breeze?! Hang it in your backyard or on your city balcony to drown out the ever-present sirens and honking cars.
17. A three-wick citronella candle that'll look lovely on your outdoor table and keep bugs away. Citronella is the unofficial summer scent and reviewers say this candle is super fragrant so you can enjoy your evening glass of wine without your arms getting chewed up by pesky mosquitoes.
18. A set of five melamine bowls with lids so you can serve outdoor dinners in style. The vibrant colors of these Pioneer Woman collection bowls are perfect for summertime, and the assortment of sizes is great to serve various things — from salads and pastas to fruit and snacks.
19. An adorable watering can solar light that one reviewer said brought so much magic to her yard. It'll add a whimsical touch to your backyard and highlight all your gardening efforts.
20. A 7.5-foot round umbrella so you can have breakfast on the patio without the sun beating down on you the whole time. This umbrella is the best deal around — under $20, tilts wherever you need it to and comes in 18 beautiful colors and patterns.
21. A half-gallon jug with a sweet floral print because staying hydrated is never more important than on hot summer days. Keep this with you while you sit by the pool, snooze in your hammock, or dig up the weeds that have taken over your vegetable patch again.
22. A black metal stand to display your pride and joy as it grows and flourishes, and by that we mean your favorite plant, of course. The stand also comes in a set of three and one reviewer said you could spray paint it since it's made of metal — hello, DIY project, join the list.
23. An adorable garden gnome you can nestle in between your plants for a playful decorative accent. Seriously, is there anything cuter than gnomes?! If you're not into the bright colored ones, this stone one will fit in with whatever your outdoor color scheme is.
24. An industrial-style outdoor bar cart to take happy hour on the back porch up a notch this year. Roll this cart wherever you need it, stock it with bottles of your favorite beverages and hang wineglasses on the built-in rack.
25. A fruit infusion pitcher with an ice core so you can sip a perfectly chilled drink all day long. If you don't love water but know you should probably be drinking more of it, get this pitcher and infuse boring old water with fruits and herbs to make hydration a little more tasty.
26. A raised planter box on wheels for every budding gardener. It comes with a removable grid to grow 12 different plants and has a drainage hole so the (literal) fruits of your labor don't rot away.
27. And since we're talking about gardening, a foldable garden kneeler that converts into a bench when you need a little breather. Or want to admire your outdoor masterpiece. The nifty kneeler also comes with a pouch to hold all your tools (or snacks for a mid-weeding break).
28. A round bird feeder that'll make your backyard the most popular of them all. At least for the bird species around. It comes in four colors including this beautiful copper one, and reviewers say it's super sturdy and well-built and will last through all kinds of weather.
29. A string of outdoor globe lights to hang all around your backyard and make it oh so magical. Turn these on and add a little ambience to any weeknight dinner, outdoor movie night, and bonfire party you have this summer and beyond.
30. A set of four outdoor chairs that look way more expensive than their wait-they're-how-much price tag. Your chairs should make you want to linger longer, especially on warm July nights, so if you're are doing anything but, get this set and give your outdoor dining area a little makeover.
31. A 65-inch metal tiki torch to light up your backyard this season. It burns for up to five hours and you can even add a special bug repellent fuel that'll keep the annoying insects away while this baby burns.
