The holiday season in Florida is truly unique, with its sunny weather and vibrant landscapes. For homeowners and DIY lovers alike, preparing your home for the holidays can be both exciting and daunting. The good news? With a few strategic tips and the right decor from Jungle, you can turn your space into a festive wonderland.
Entertaining in Warm Weather
Hosting in Florida's warm climate has its perks. You can take advantage of outdoor spaces for gatherings, allowing guests to enjoy the mild winter air. Create comfortable seating areas with plush cushions and use mosquito-repelling plants like Lavender and Marigold to keep pests at bay.
Food and drinks should also reflect the warm weather. Serve refreshing beverages such as iced teas and lemonades, alongside grilled dishes or fresh seafood. Set up a self-serve bar outdoors, complete with all the essentials for a festive cocktail.
Encourage interactive activities like lawn games or a DIY s’mores station. These not only entertain guests but also make your gathering memorable.
Creating Comfortable Outdoor Spaces
To ensure that your outdoor spaces are guest-ready, focus on comfort and accessibility. Arrange seating in clusters to facilitate conversation and provide ample lighting for evening events with solar-powered lanterns or string lights.
Invest in durable outdoor furniture that withstands the elements and use outdoor rugs to define spaces. Shade structures like pergolas or umbrellas provide relief from the sun, allowing guests to linger longer.
Consider Jungle’s selection of plants to enhance privacy and aesthetics. Their Podocarpus and Clusia hedges serve as excellent natural screens, preserving the intimacy of your gathering.
