No one wants to spend a fortune on outdoor furniture; it takes a lot of wear and tear thanks to the weather, but everyone wants it to look stylish.
That’s why I personally love shopping at IKEA for a lot of my outdoor furniture and accessories.
So as the weather warms up and you and your family start spending more time outdoors, check out our favorite finds from the Danish superstore. I promise you’ll find at least one thing to add to your outdoor collection. Start slideshow »

This is a new line from IKEA, and I love the Kelly green color! Mix and match it with other more neutral pieces or go bold and use the entire set.
This patio set is modern yet classic. We love the understated color and the fact that you can mix and match the benches with chairs. Plus you can get the entire set for just $325!
I can just picture a pair of these on a wraparound porch. Slide in, read a book, and grab a cold glass of iced tea and enjoy!
This bistro set reminds me of eating at an outdoor café in Paris! Add it to your sun porch or patio and your morning coffee or afternoon tea will be transported to another world.
I absolutely love when there is lighting outside. It makes a summer night even more magical and keeps the party going when people are still having fun. That’s why I especially love these decorative LED lights in the shape of pears. Use a bunch of them around the yard or place a few of them on a table as a centerpiece.
I have a personal love for the Applaro line from IKEA (I have the storage bench, the potting bench, and dining set in my backyard and it has all held up beautifully). Next up on my list is a set of these reclining chairs. Add some stylish cushions and kick back and relax on a breezy summer day (cocktails optional).
