Getting Your Pool and Backyard Ready for Holiday Season 2022

 If you have a pool in your backyard, you must be wondering what you can do to prepare it for holiday season. An aesthetic backyard is much more than just a pool and there's a lot of room for additional upgrades.

These upgrades don't necessarily have to be expensive; there are plenty of ideas that will enhance the aesthetic appeal of your poolside.

Let's take a look at some of the most creative ideas that will give your pool parties a more relaxing and entertaining vibe this holiday season!

1. String Lights

Adding string lights to your backyard will give it a festive feeling. White or colored LED lights are easily available, especially near Christmas, and can brighten up your backyard.

Make sure you don't hang any lights across the pool and keep them away from water due to electrical hazards. If you want to light the inside of your pool, get underwater LED lights that are waterproof.

2. Accent Plants

Having plants along your poolside or in the backyard is a good way to give it a more natural look. There are plenty of plants that you can choose from, including ivy, creepers, shrubs, or flowers that bloom throughout the year.

If you're not in favor of planting your backyard, potted plants can do the trick as well. Potted plants hanging on your backyard walls can include Aloe Vera, Weeping Dalea, Octopus Agave, and more.

Make sure you avoid plants that shed a lot of leaves; otherwise you'll constantly need to clean your pool.

4. Stone Walkways

A stone walkway that connects the backyard to your house is an elegant landscaping addition to your property. Slabs are better to walk on compared to grass and it also boosts the curb appeal of your backyard.

You can choose the color of the stones according to your preference, or you can mix it up to give it a more party-like vibe.

5. Fire Pits

Having your Thanksgiving dinner around a fire pit on a chill November night sounds like the ideal family get-together, no?

A beautiful, glowing fire pit can enhance the look of your pool backyard. The fire will stand out and give a natural look to your backyard. Moreover, it will give a warm, relaxing feel to the place. You can get a portable fire pit or have one built with concrete and bricks.

These are some of the ideas that can give your backyard a new, enhanced look for the upcoming holiday season. However, you must contact professional pool contractors to turn your ideas into reality.
