Even though the summer season is coming to a close, you can still enjoy your outdoor area well into fall — you just need to add some coziness to it, courtesy of the items below. Grab your blanket scarf, light up the campfire, and entertain your friends and family around your new weatherproof table. New favorite season, coming right up.

It’s handblown and made from recycled glass found in local villages around Oaxaca so each set is different. You’ll get one carafe and two tumblers — but you can always buy more glasses separately. The whole set is dishwasher- and microwave-safe and comes in two different colors that’ll look great year-round. ($125, Goodee)

Shoes on the patio? Optional. This rug comes in seven different colors, four shapes, and several sizes. Customers say it holds up well against the elements and love that they can bring it indoors, too. ($39+, Boutique Rugs)

Set this one up in the living room, kids’ room, or the backyard thanks to its design made from ecothylene — a material made from recycled plastic toys that’s safe for outdoor use. It comes with two chairs, one for your little one and their friend (or sibling), and is suitable for kids up to age seven. We only wish they had one for adults. ($750, Goodee)

Beautiful plating is just a click away. These dishes, bowls, serving plates, and mugs have been hand-painted in bright colors with swirling motifs inspired by an Italian vacation. The entire collection is lead-free, microwave- and dishwasher-safe, and handmade in Italy. ($36+, Piano Piano)

Obviously you’ll be cooking up some classic pizza pies in this outdoor oven, but with easy temp control, the recipe world can be your oyster. It preheats in 15 minutes and can turn out a pizza in only 90 seconds. The cooking surface is made from a pizza stone that’ll distribute heat quickly and evenly for super crispy crusts. The whole oven only weighs 30 pounds so you can pop it over to your neighbor’s, or fire it up at the next tailgate. ($349.99, Solo Stove)

Protect your table with a couple of eye-catching placemats. These come in a set of six and have been handcrafted by Colombian artisans. Choose from one of four colors and pair them with these coasters, also handmade in Colombia. Psst…wipe them down with a damp cloth and let them dry fully before storing to maintain their vibrant color. ($100, Goodee)

When you never know how many to expect at the cookout, this expandable acacia wood table will never let you down. It can fit up to eight chairs, comes with a 90-day warranty, and will withstand anything Mother Nature throws at it. ($429.99, Wayfair)

Because sun protection doesn’t stop when summer does. This easy-to-set-up canopy blocks 95% of UV rays and can be made to order to your preferred size and shape. It's available in nine colors, ready for you to string up in your backyard or porch with the included rope. ($23.99, Amazon)

Just set these along your patio deck and let them light your way at night. They take four to five hours to charge and turn on automatically at dusk and off at dawn. And if you don't have a railing to screw these onto, snag these solar lights that can lie flat on the ground along your walkway instead. ($23.45, Amazon)

They come in white and black and are Bluetooth-compatible, so you won’t need to wrestle with any cords. They can go both inside and outside, are water-resistant, and can be placed standing up or lying down. A UV-resistant coating keeps them weatherproof, so you can keep them outside all year round. ($54.99, Amazon)

Roll out the wooden carpet for your guests (or just to keep your feet free from dirt when you step outside). It comes in three different lengths — six, eight, and 12 feet — and can be combined with curved walkways to create a unique path that suits your outdoor space. ($54.85, Amazon)

Don’t let your traditional bird feeder keep you from seeing the real magic. This clear birdhouse comes in four different shapes and suctions onto your patio windows so you can see the birds feast from any angle. BTW, the brand recommends keeping the feeder elevated up to 10 feet to keep the squirrels out. ($9.95, Amazon)

This stove can run on all kinds of fuel and is made of stainless steel that’s lightweight, highly durable, and won’t cave under the hot flame. Plus, it comes in six different colors to give your outdoor atmosphere a pop. One batch of s’mores, coming right up. ($79.99, Solo Stove)

What’s big, bright, and has tinned fish all over? This must-have blanket from Great Jones. Designed in collaboration with a Brooklyn-based, woman-owned company, it’s the perfect size to gather with a couple friends on the next sunny day or throw on your patio couch. Snag it in either yellow or green and lounge on. ($145, Great Jones)
