    42 Things That'll Make Everyone Jealous Of Your Patio This Summer

    Hammock chairs, string lights, coolers in disguise, and other things you'll wish were already in your backyard.

    1. Connectable Edison bulb string lights that'll make the people next door wonder if a cute little cocktail bar has moved into the neighborhood.

    2. A durable adjustable folding umbrella so you have somewhere cool to ~chill~ on hot days.

    3. A high-voltage bug zapper for anyone who loves everything about lounging around outside except for the bugs. This lantern helps cut down on the mosquitoes, gnats, flies, and moths in an area up to 1,500 square feet.

    4. Or a citronella candle that mosquitoes hate almost as much as you hate them.

    5. A cool hammock chair you'll love hangin' around in.

    6. Or a double cotton hammock with a steel stand and carrying case if a hanging hammock isn't an option.
