I always suggest adding or at least consider adding a chandelier and/or table lamp(s) to your patio, porch, terrace or deck space.
These lighting options inject a touch of casual elegance and make the space more intimate.
Paper lanterns make an affordable addition to your outdoor lighting scheme.
We use a fire pit as another form of lighting.
And for roasting marshmallows for summer s’mores.
And mosquito control aka natural buzz kill.
Celebrating the moments of your outdoor living life with a cool refreshing beverage is always a good idea.
Convenience makes a fabulous party guest, and a beverage station or bar cart sur le patio is as convenient as it is necessary.

The image below reminds me of the vintage sewing machine stand I bought at a flea market when Dave the Builder and I were dating.
Dave found a scrap piece of marble to serve as the top and we were in business.
I first used the marble top sewing machine stand as a bistro table, then a kitchen island, then a microwave stand, and eventually a poolside bar/beverage stand.
Nothing fancy by any means, but unique (at the time) and very versatile.
