While it might be a bit chilly outdoors, that shouldn’t mean you have to spend all your time indoors. Fire pits are a great way to enjoy the outside when winter comes about, keeping things social, cosy and fun. To help you mould the perfect winter fire pit space, we’ve got together some of our very best tips and tricks.
Circular seating space
Talking over a fire has been happening for thousands of years and is a great way to connect, socialise and tell stories far away from your phone. Trust us - to make the most of the time spent with your loved ones, a circular seating pattern is undoubtedly the best way to set up your fire pit space. To make things extra cosy, we suggest using some comfy wooden chairs with plenty of cushions. At the end of the day, there’s nothing better than chatting over a fire for hours on end with a starry sky sparkling above you.
Blankets galore
There’s nothing like warming yourself up beside the fire under a cosy, knitted blanket. From woolly styles to colourful pattern designs, there are plenty of blankets out there to suit your fire pit space. From kids to grandparents, everybody will appreciate that extra warmth, especially on the colder days. While cosy blankets might result in a few sleeping heads, it’s worth it for that extra snug layer when enjoying the fire.
Cosy lighting
Too much or too little - lighting can make or break an outdoor space. To enjoy your fire pit in the evening, we recommend setting up some fairy lights where you can in the garden. Fairy lights can create that cosy, snug atmosphere you’ve been looking for, while also providing a relaxing ambience to the evening. Thankfully, fairy lights are generally super cheap and can be easily hung from branches or plants around the garden.
The right fuel for the right fire
The fuel you use for your fire pit is always the most important part, ensuring that the fire stays powerful and endures throughout the night. Our Kiln Dried Logs are the perfect choice for any winter fire pit space, providing you with an easy-to-light, sustainable fuel that can endure for a long time. The result? A more powerful fire that doesn’t require refuelling on a regular basis.
Fire pits aren’t just a warm, cosy place to enjoy the outdoors - they also encourage you, your family and friends to get more social during the winter months.
