For the Fearless & Festive

If you’re not afraid to turn heads or make a statement, let your backyard be a playground for your imagination this holiday season. Turn your outdoor Gazebo into a gingerbread house for the holidays! It’s a fun and festive way to celebrate the season without compromising your colorful sense of style. DIY some bright candy decorations, add lawn candy canes, and invite your neighbors over for a hot toddy or two!

For the Cool & Casual

Cool and casual holiday decorators are all about bringing together the best elements of the season so that decorations can last well beyond the holidays. Think winter whites, silvers, and blues for your color palette. Icicle lights, snowflakes, birch branches, and glittery garlands will make your Outdoor Gazebo feel like a winter wonderland all season long. Add a few friends with hot cups of coffee or tea and you’ve got your own icy retreat to enjoy.

Gazebo Lights: Magical All Year Long https://www.gazebodepot.com/gazebo-lights-magical-all-year-long/ Mon, 17 Jan 2022 22:29:18 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=385 Wooden Gazebo with lightsThanksgiving and Christmas bring a busy season full of moments spent celebrating each evening with friends, families and significant others.  However, after the festive holiday season, the magic in the air starts to die down. You return to your regular schedule of work, parenting, classes and everyday living. The mundane feeling of routine can start to set in as the décor of the holidays is put back into boxes.

Car rides during the holidays are filled with the views of lit up stores, colorful Christmas trees in shopping plazas and lights twinkling across store fronts and houses. That nostalgic feeling is further emphasized with music you’ve heard since childhood. Inside the home, the house is filled with shadows from tree branches and the glint of lights on shimmering bulbs hanging from the tree. There’s sparkles, garlands, and, depending on where you live, crackling wood lighting up the fireplace. Can you imagine if you could enjoy an atmosphere with twinkling lights and the hush of the night sky all year long?

Step back into the ambiance of winter magic with a backyard Gazebo with outdoor lighting. Whether it is summer weather or blustery winter, you can sit outside in the cozy seats under your Gazebo. You don’t have to wait for the holidays to return. Once you’ve set up your Gazebo Kit, you will have a respite in the outdoors all year long. Stay up late in the comfort of your Gazebo telling stories, drinking hot chocolate or sipping a chilled summer beverage.

Your Own Backyard Winter Retreat https://www.gazebodepot.com/your-own-backyard-winter-retreat/ Mon, 17 Jan 2022 22:18:11 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=202 Bayside Cedar GazeboDo you dream of taking a winter retreat in the mountains? Can you imagine yourself escaping for a week to nestle in a cozy cabin in the Colorado Rockies? Taking time off work and getting away from it all can be difficult to fit into a busy schedule. Instead, make an inviting oasis in your very own backyard. Enjoy luxurious living when you dedicate a corner of your backyard as a spa alcove.

Transform your ordinary backyard with a hot tub sheltered by a Red Cedar Gazebo. Embrace the spirit of a lodge escape when you are surrounded by this gorgeous Western Red Cedar structure. As you survey the columns and roofing around you, you will be transported to the mountains in the convenience of your own backyard.

When temperatures drop and a chill starts to set in, it’s the perfect time to take a dip in steaming hot water and let your worries fall to the wayside. Bring some festive apple cider, champagne, or your favorite drink of choice as you relax in the good ol’ outdoors. Whether you are having guests or just want to slip away with your significant other, your mini winter retreat is the perfect place to get revived during the busy holiday season.

For those sunny afternoons when you head to the spa, the wooden roof of the Gazebo will provide some shade and privacy. You can even decorate the roof with twinkle lights to give added ambiance all year long.

Instead of hunting for plane tickets and trying to plan an entire vacation, create a year-round escape with your spa shelter from GazeboDepot.com.

Planting Around Your Wood Pavilion https://www.gazebodepot.com/planting-around-your-wood-pavilion/ Thu, 20 Sep 2018 18:28:32 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=505 planting-around-gazebo

Adding a gazebo or wood pavilion to your lawn can be a great way to extend the living and entertaining space on your property. After the pavilion has been set up in your backyard, it’s important to landscape around it to make it look truly complete. Here are some tips on how and what to plant around your wood pavilion:

 

    • Think About Plant Height: If you’d like to obscure the railings or borders around your wood pavilion, plant shrubs or grasses that will grow tall, such as tufted hair grass or eulalia grass. On the other hand, small perennials that grow back every year can give your border gardens a nice pop of color without obstructing the view.
    • Raised Beds for Small Flowers: If you prefer smaller plants to shrubs, bushes, or grasses, think about installing raised beds that offer appropriate drainage but require minimal maintenance. Annuals that can be changed out each year with different colors or varieties are well suited to raised beds.
    • Mix and Match Textures and Colors: The best landscapes showcase a variety of colors and textures, so play with mixing up flowers and shrubs with ornamental grasses to achieve the desired effect. For example, black-eyed Susans will look wonderful near Shasta daisies, phlox, or coneflowers.

 

With a little bit of greenery and bright flowers, your new wood pavilion will look even more welcoming and ready to enjoy.

Choosing Wood vs. Vinyl Gazebos https://www.gazebodepot.com/choosing-wood-vs-vinyl-gazebos/ Mon, 10 Sep 2018 18:26:48 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=501 Shopping for a gazebo may seem easy, but there’s actually quite a lot to consider. Besides gazebos that will fit the size of your lot appropriately, you also have to think about their materials. Choosing a wood or vinyl gazebo can have pros and cons, depending on what you’re looking for.

Vinyl Gazebos

This type of gazebo is easy to maintain and really doesn’t require much maintenance. The biggest thing you’ll need to look out for is vinyl that becomes brittle or cracks with age. You can still replace some sections of the gazebo if needed, but it may be a bit harder to do than wood.  You don’t need to repaint or restain vinyl. It’s also very easy to clean with a hose or pressure washer.

Wood Gazebos

This gazebo type needs repainting or staining every few years, but it is designed to last a long time. It’s also easier to fix sections of the gazebo should it become damaged or weak. Wood gazebos don’t become brittle with age, but they do still need checking every now and then to make sure that they maintain their structural integrity.

In terms of price and longevity, both gazebo types can be on par with each other. It’s really up to you on the style of gazebo that you prefer. When you’re ready to make your purchase, let GazeboDepot.com help with our vinyl and wood gazebo selection!

Pergolas Elegantly Enhance Your Backyard https://www.gazebodepot.com/pergolas-elegantly-enhance-your-backyard/ Mon, 20 Aug 2018 18:25:16 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=497 Sometimes the simplest additions lend the most elegant aesthetics to a space, and that is the case with pergolas. Maybe you’ve seen these lattice-roofed structures before but never knew what they were called or what their purpose was. You’re clearly meant to spend time under it, but its open latticework won’t protect you from the sun or stop the rain from drenching you.

Pergolas designate spaces where people can unwind in otherwise open areas. They are generally placed over patios holding table-and-chair setups. You have several options for a pergola’s latticed roof. Some people install retractable canopies over the lattices for privacy and shade from the sun, but you can get creative with your pergola roof by growing flowers across it. These will look gorgeous and create a pleasant mixture of shade and sun on your patio below. You may also want to hang some potted plants from the roof to bring the floral look of your pergola together.

All that remains is planning what to do under the pergola. You’ll want to wait for a warm, sunny day to schedule any activities. Invite your friends or extended family to your backyard for a cookout! Then you can all eat and relax under the pergola’s flowered canopy. Or get a good book and some snacks and head out to the pergola for some soothing alone time.

You can customize and order pre-cut pergolas online for affordable prices. Check out GazeboDepot.com for yours.

Gazebo Kits Are Designed with Users in Mind https://www.gazebodepot.com/gazebo-kits-are-designed-with-users-in-mind/ Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:22:46 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=494 If you’re shopping for gazebo kits online, you are likely already aware of the prestige and simple aesthetics gazebos can lend to your backyard or garden area. Gazebos are centerpieces of our backyards. They are simple enough to let you take in and appreciate the greenery surrounding them but still attract enough attention to be recognized as the highlight of the garden. Gazebos invite backyard visitors to sit under the roof, stay awhile, and enjoy the scenery. outdoor gazebo kits

You might never have thought about how gazebos get to your property from a website or store. The easy answer is that gazebos come in kits that ship to you just like anything else. The caveat to gazebo kits is that you assemble them yourself once you receive them. If putting an assortment of large gazebo pieces together is more work than you can handle, feel free to hire construction professionals to do it for you. But for the do-it-yourself enthusiasts, here is a basic rundown of what you’ll need to do to assemble your gazebo kit:

  • Pour a concrete slab foundation
  • Install floor joists in foundation
  • Install deck
  • Install outside railings
  • Install roof rafters
  • Install roof
  • Install cupola, if present

The process is more involved than this list can detail, but the items here may help you to think about the tools and labor you’ll need to assemble your gazebo kit once you have it. You can order customized gazebo kits now at GazeboDepot.com.

Wooden Pavilions Offer Simple yet Sophisticated Backyard Relaxation https://www.gazebodepot.com/wooden-pavilions-offer-simple-yet-sophisticated-backyard-relaxation/ Fri, 20 Jul 2018 18:15:59 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=490 You have an ample but vacant backyard. The grass is perfectly manicured, you have just the right amount of tree shade in the afternoons, and the area is relatively secluded from the view of neighbors. You know you want to add something to this empty space, but you’re just not sure what it should be, and you don’t want to make the wrong decision and waste thousands of dollars.

The next time you find yourself pondering all this, consider what a wooden pavilion from Gazebo Depot might add to your uninhabited yard. A pavilion may not have been your first thought when it comes to backyard structures. A gazebo or swing set probably occurred to you first. You may even associate pavilions with public parks and wonder what use you could possibly make of your very own pavilion.

Gazebo Depot’s simple but elegant wood pavilion adds a tranquil oasis to your backyard. Its floor platform, four posts, and sloped, shingled roof separate the space from the rest of your yard, inviting guests to seek solace there for a picnic lunch or a relaxing game night on the lawn. You’ll feel safe and relaxed in the sturdy pine structure, protected from rain and the hot sun. A few pieces of Gazebo Depot’s rustic wooden lawn furniture will finish off your pavilion décor.

You may even want to keep your pavilion relatively empty and instead place it along a path in your garden. There, you can stop and enjoy your flowers and other plants under the pleasant cover of your pavilion roof. Whatever your specific desires may be, Gazebo Depot’s pavilions can add a touch of class to those wide-open spaces on your property. Customize and order your wooden pavilion now from Gazebodepot.com.

Wooden Gazebo Kits for Your Peaceful Escapes https://www.gazebodepot.com/wooden-gazebo-kits-for-your-peaceful-escapes/ Tue, 10 Jul 2018 17:58:14 +0000 http://blog.gazebodepot.com/?p=484 Have you ever wanted to host family or friends in your backyard, but you never know where you’ll all spend time? Maybe a picnic table is too constricting. Or maybe you’d like some privacy but don’t want to sit inside an enclosed tent that blocks out the cool breezes. If these situations sound familiar, you may want to have a look at Gazebo Depot’s wooden gazebo kits. Once assembled, these kits offer classy, aesthetically pleasing spaces for you and your guests to enjoy as you escape from your normal life routines.

You may have seen these types of gazebos outside bed-and-breakfasts or other, more rural establishments, encouraging visitors to sit and relax for a while. But gazebos don’t have to be a luxury you enjoy only while traveling. Imagine one in your own backyard. Their open-air design allows the refreshing breezes to flow in, while their roofs protect you from hot sun or pouring rain.

Of course, the really exciting part of owning your own wooden gazebo is the range of options available to you for decorating its interior. What kind of furniture might be best for extended get-togethers? A few cushioned wicker chairs might do the trick there. You might plan to read in your gazebo on warm summer afternoons. In that case, make room for something you can stretch out on, such as an outdoor sofa or loveseat. Add in a few side tables for food, drinks, and maybe some potted plants, and your brand-new peace gazebo will be good to go!

Gazebo Depot offers oval, rectangular, and octagonal gazebo kits in a variety of sizes and styles. Let us help find the right shape and size wooden gazebo kit for you. You’ll want to spend more time outdoors than ever before with one of these in your backyard.
