Pier 1 Made My Patio into an Outdoor Oasis #Pier1OutdoorParty #Sponsored #MC
June 14, 2014 By
I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting (#MC) for Pier 1 Imports. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and to thank me for participating.”
A few weeks ago I was asked to participate in an Outdoor Oasis Party with Pier 1. I knew I needed to update my patio so I said yes. I never knew how pretty it would actually get with a little hard work and some fun shopping. After I had the patio the way I wanted it I threw a party for all to see!
I had about ten guests come over for a light lunch and a mini manicure. It was a beautiful hot Florida day, perfect for the pool. but hung out in the house and on the patio. There was a slight breeze which made it a nice day. I kept the decorations simple but went with the lime green that is the focal color on my patio. Lemonade and Cranberry Ginger Ale made for refreshing beverages along with light snack and yummy cookies.
My patio’s history.
Originally my patio had an old glass table and chairs on it. But I’ve wanting a wicker set for 2 years. Recently I was able to get a free wicker rocker that a neighbor was getting rid of. Then at our local community yard sale I scored an old wicker set with cushions for $25!
But it needed some work…
So I spend a weekend scraping and painting the wicker and turned a beautiful white! I also found an old wooden table outside fir the trash, took that home, sanded it and repainted it to match the pillows on the wicker.
So what did I get at Pier 1 for my Patio Oasis? I wanted to keep the bottom cushions that came with my wicker set but needed to change up the throw pillows. I picked out some pretty floral designs and some solid yellow pillows. Then I needed another table. So I picked out a beautiful side table. hen I wanted some hanging lights to add some color and sparkle to my patio.
My guests loved my new patio and I several were off to shop at Pier 1 to spruce up there outdoor living space! A Mother’s Day gift to add to my collection from Pier 1!!
But wait! I am hoping to get our patio extended and screened in. This will make me so happy as I love to sit outside and read and feel the warmth and listen to the birds sing. With an extension I will need to head back to Pier 1 for some more shopping! I think a rug would be a great asset and maybe another chair. I will keep you posted.
One Mommy Has to Work reader will win a $25 Pier 1 Imports gift card. Check out the Pier 1 Imports Outdoor Collection and tell me what you would like to buy with your gif card if you win!

I received some Twix Bites in the mail. Unfortunaltly they were a bit melted as it’s pretty hot here in Florida. But….I put them in the fridge and got a few bites, just as delicious as the full size. As a special treat, I chopped the rest and added them to vanilla ice cream for a wonderful treat!
