As the summer sun fades and crisp autumn air moves in, itâs the perfect time to prepare your outdoor living space for the season ahead. At SoPoly, we believe your backyard should be a year-round retreat, and with the right care, your furniture can transition seamlessly from summer barbecues to cozy fall gatherings. Here are our top tips for getting your outdoor furniture ready for fall.
1. Clean and Refresh Your Furniture
After months of sun, rain, and heavy use, your outdoor furniture deserves a refresh.
-
Wash with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicalsâour HDPE lumber is designed to resist fading and stains, but gentle care keeps it looking like new.
-
Check cushions and fabrics. Spot clean covers, and let them dry thoroughly before use to prevent mildew.
2. Add Warmth With Fire Features
Nothing says fall like gathering around a fire with friends and family. Two customer favorites for autumn evenings include:
đ„ The 48" Round Firepit
Spacious enough for a crowd, this firepit becomes the heart of your outdoor living area. Pair it with Adirondack chairs for the perfect sâmores station or game-day hangout.
đ„ The Savannah Firepit Table
Elegant and functional, the Savannah blends a classic dining surface with the warmth of a built-in fire feature. Ideal for outdoor dinners that stretch into cool fall nights.
Both pieces are crafted from SoPolyâs recycled HDPE lumber, making them resistant to moisture, fading, and crackingâso you can enjoy the fire season after season.
3. Embrace Fall Comfort
Autumn is all about comfort and warmth. Transform your patio into a cozy retreat:
-
Add warm throws and pillows in seasonal colors like burnt orange, deep red, or golden yellow.
-
Bring in outdoor rugs to define your space and add softness underfoot.
-
Use your firepit as a centerpiece for lanterns, hot drinks, and late-night gatherings.
4. Protect and Prepare for Weather Changes
Even though SoPoly furniture is engineered to withstand the elements, a little extra care goes a long way.
-
Keep furniture uncovered in moderate fall weatherâour HDPE lumber resists moisture, rot, and fading.
-
For areas with heavy leaf fall or rain, cover pieces with breathable furniture covers to reduce cleanup.
-
Store cushions indoors when not in use to protect against early frost or dampness.
5. Style Your Space for Seasonal Gatherings
Fall is the season of gatheringsâfootball weekends, harvest dinners, and porch chats.
-
Arrange Adirondack chairs or swivel gliders around the 48" Round Firepit for the ultimate fall hangout spot.
-
Highlight your Savannah Firepit Table with autumn-inspired centerpieces like pumpkins, mums, and lanterns.
-
Showcase neutral and earthy tones such as Tybee Sand or Heron Gray, which pair beautifully with fall décor.
