It’s so easy to decorate for fall on the patio. The colors of fall are so bright and inviting. You will find many great ideas if you just go browsing around, but here are a few to get you thinking:

• Lanterns are very trendy these days. You can place one or more lanterns with big candles inside to throw just the right amount of soft light in various places on your patio.
• Hanging lights make any area festive. There are lights in all kinds of shapes, sizes and colors to give your outdoor area a party atmosphere.
• Fall plants – especially asters or chrysanthemums – come in a variety of colors and you can find them in full bloom, so all you have to do is put them in a basket or container for instant pizzazz!
• Table cloths and coordinating napkins in fall hues add a sophisticated element for your fall feast.
• Center pieces are easy in the fall. Be as creative as you want with your center piece. Pumpkins, fall leaves, fresh flowers, candles. You can choose one or more of these or use them all. Scatter leaves around your pumpkin with candles on each side, a small basket of flowers and a candle on each side among the leaves and viola, your table will look fantastic.

Fall is a great time to make the most of the outdoors before winter sets in and keeps us all indoors.
