Tis the season for dining outside.  But, let’s break away from the classic red and white gingham and try a new, more modern color palette. I’ve found 13 Backyard BBQ Essentials that are sure to refresh your look.  Subtle color and retro shapes will keep your loving these items for years to come. Â

Metal Chairs // Edison Bulb String Lights
Blue Retro Cooler // Green Grill
Ice Cream Maker // Faux Leather Pouf
I love to mix and match patterns.  By keeping a lot of the bigger pieces solid colors, it’s easy to add a little pattern with the table linens and dishes.  I love these black and white dot dishes, any color napkin can be added to the table to change the look. Â

Buffalo Check Blanket // Drink Dispenser
Now, let’s fire up the grill and have some friends over. Â Is there anything better then a relaxed evening spent outside with good food, drinks and friends?Â
The link for the drink dispenser is wrong; it leads to the chairs. I’d love to know where the drink dispenser is from.
