  1. Start by envisioning your ideal fall backyard. Consider the layout, seating arrangements, and the location for your fire pit. Take into account the size of your space and any existing landscaping or features.
  2. Select an affordable backyard fire pit that suits your style and needs. Consider some popular trends, such as portable, smokeless, or minimalist designs.
  3. Talk to your contractor to ensure the fire pit design is safe, durable, and complies with local regulations. Also think about including the safest choices, such as an electric or gas fire pit.
  4. Think about installing a rock garden and other artistic landscaping elements that could ensure your backyard can stand out better.
  5. Plant a beautiful, small garden lined with appealing herbs and rose bushes, as well as an area where you can sit and relax.
  6. A great way to make your backyard more attractive is to add a play area for your kids and pets to enjoy. Make sure to set clear boundaries and maybe introduce a few privacy fences.
  7. Arrange comfortable seating around the fire pit, the garden and any other areas where you and your guests might spend more time around. Some of the best options include outdoor sofas, chairs, or even built-in seating. Add cushions and blankets for extra warmth and comfort.
