This blog post is made in collaboration with Walmart and all my opinions are my own.

I partnered with Walmart Home to bring you some of my favorite items from their summer collection. Now that summer is finally here, we’re so excited to finally use our covered deck for entertaining and late evening dinners.  There are so many colorful, cool patterns and items to give your outdoor space an elevated look, so go check them out. 

Typically, I tend to stay neutral with my decor; however, I decided to go bold with my colors and patterns for this summer. The finds from Walmart Home are the perfect addition to my newly cleaned covered deck. 

I am really drawn to the colorful and patterned pillows from the Better Homes and Garden collection.  The bright colors scream summer, and I’m loving the way they spruce up my outdoor seating area. 

Pillows, Pouf and More Pillows

This Medallion Outdoor Toss Pillow is the inspiration for my entire look this summer.  The bright yellow, coral, teal, and turquoise are the perfect color combination for a festive summer look. 

Of course, I couldn’t resist the complimentary pillows such as this Bobble Stripe Outdoor Toss Pillow in teal.  The bobbles are the perfect amount of texture, and this rich teal color really stands out against the off-white sectional.

I went with this yellow Reversible Stripe pillow from Walmart Home to bring a little sunshine onto my covered deck.  Naturally, this pillow is giving me summertime vibes!  You can never go wrong with the color yellow for a festive, summer look.  I promise you, it makes everything pop!

In order to give my seating a little more comfort, I added these Multi Stripe and Relax lumbar pillows.  I love that they have tassels and coordinate so well with the rest of the pillows in this Walmart Home summer collection. Add the coordinating Stripe Outdoor Pouf and you instantly have more seating for our family and guests.

Did I mention that these pillows and pouf all coordinate so well? I added a couple of others from the collection below so you can see the combinations. Do you love parrots as much as I do?

Outdoor Lanterns from Walmart Home

Now that we discussed pillows, let’s talk about lighting or more specifically lanterns.  I am a huge fan of accent lighting for outdoor living, and this Battery Powered Outdoor Yellow Rattan LED Lantern is the perfect solution for soft ambient lighting to set the mood for a nice outdoor dinner.  Add in these Black Lanterns for an added touch of soft mood light, and you have the perfect setup for a candlelit dinner or an outdoor movie night with the kids.

I’ve curated my favorite Walmart Home lanterns that can help you create the perfect nighttime summer patio or deck. Pop in some battery-operated or solar candles, and it’s a VIBE!

Festive Dinnerware and Drinkware

I set the mood with the outdoor covered deck décor, so let’s talk dinnerware and drinkware because what’s a party without food and drinks!  Using the gorgeous dinnerware, set up for a traditional tablescape or buffet style.  Either way, these vibrant dinnerware and drinkware sets are the perfect way to create a festive, inviting dinner table.

The chic and modern style of the Better Homes and Gardens Blue Sabine Stripe Tumblers upgrades your average tabletop into an alfresco dining experience that is sure to impress even the most discerning friends and family. 

Additionally, this Gibson Home Forever Paradise Melamine dinnerware set is so perfect for hosting a dinner party on my covered deck.  The fact that they are chip-resistant and dishwasher safe is a huge benefit for those busy summer evenings. 

Whether you want to chill your beverages in this Farmhouse-Style White Galvanized Oval Tub or make homemade lemonade and serve it in this Mosaic Beverage Dispenser, your guest will never get thirsty. I personally love to provide my guests with multiple drink choices, so having different means of serving the drinks makes entertaining so easy!

Below, I curated a list of my favorite tableware to help you create the perfect tablescape for your next tropical outdoor party.

Don’t walk, run to Walmart.com to pick up some of these items from their summer collection.  They will not disappoint, and your family and guests will certainly be impressed.

Also, did you know that Walmart is celebrating Black Music Month during the month of June? Now that my deck is ready for fun, I’m going to go and check out the Old School versus New School playlist that has been curated on Spotify!
