Ideas for Incorporating a Tiki Umbrella into Your Backyard

May 17, 2013

If you’re looking to transform your backyard into a tropical escape, try one or all of these three ways by using a tiki umbrella cover.  Our thatch tiki umbrellas are perfect for your backyard, and here’s why:

1. TIKI BAR If you enjoy entertaining outdoors, you can easily set up your own tiki bar– complete with the ultimate tiki hut roof material, a thatch tiki umbrella cover. Thatch umbrellas produce a cooler shade (approx. 10-15 degrees cooler) opposed to the canvas umbrellas, as warm air can escape through the thatch. In a hot climate, that difference makes a big impact: visitors go home remembering the total relaxation they experienced instead of sweltering in the heat.

2. POOLSIDE PARADISE The same is fact applies to tiki umbrellas surrounding pool areas. Cool off in the shade and instantly transform your pool deck into a tropical paradise. You’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the ultimate vacation getaway when you step right outside your door.

3. OUTDOOR KITCHEN Over the past ten years, there has been an explosion of products and appliances for outdoor kitchens flooding the marketplace. These transform the average backyard into a party pad for entertaining or a family gathering place. All an outdoor kitchen really needs is a place for cooking, but today’s outdoor kitchens have evolved considerably. North Carolina architect and author of Designing Your Perfect House William Hirsch sees “a strong move away from built-in outdoor kitchens and grills to the modular units.” A modular mix of outdoor kitchen pieces, from thatch umbrellas to moveable grills on wheels to portable fire pits can be relocated fairly easily if you change your mind about the arrangement or make alterations to your outdoor spaces.
