Once you've taken the jump to purchase teak furniture, you may think that you're entertaining area in the yard is complete.
Think again.
This is just the beginning of the possibilities when it comes to decorating your home.
There are a lot of teak patio accessories out there that can really dress up this space and make it seem like an extension of your home, versus just a place to sit in the yard.
Let's take a look at all the pieces that can make a complete backyard set made of teak.
Table and Chairs Chances are this entire discussion of a patio set started because you liked a set of teak patio furniture.
So, chances are you already know what you want in a set of tables and chairs.
Just make sure you choose ones that are right for your yard.
What this means is making sure that you measure the space out before you buy.
Don't just measure how much space the table takes sitting there, but also how much space will be taken up when people are sitting in the chairs and they are pushed away from the table.
You need to make sure you have enough room to maneuver around the table and chair set when they're in use.
Benches If you do a lot of entertaining, or just generally have a lot of people over hanging out at your house in the evening, you may want a little extra seating, but not necessarily a whole extra table set.
Well, it's time to bring in the benches.
Having a couple of benches available, even if they're sitting against the wall the rest of the time, you have an instant addition to your seating offerings in your backyard entertaining center when extra people come over.
Planters One of the reasons you have a backyard entertaining area is to show off the plants and nature that are at play here, right? Then why not give them the best of teak accessories as well? Especially when it comes to that special plant you been nurturing, you may want to spend a little extra and get a nice teak planter for it.
If you shop around, you may even be able to get one that almost exactly matches the same style and cut of the rest of your furniture.
This is a great way to display your plants as a part of your sitting area in your backyard, and do it in style, with the plant matching your furniture.
In addition to these few teak patio accessories, there are a lot of other pieces of teak you can use to accent your garden area.
If you need extra storage, perhaps a storage bin is in line for you.
Some of these even look like benches that have a storage area underneath.
Essentially, this means you can have them do double duty for you, being extra seating as well as a place to put things away.
