Whether cozy seating or spacious dining areas, Acima Leasing can help you create the ideal space to host family and friends. This guide on holiday hosting tips will help you plan how to turn your backyard into the ideal gathering space.

Transform Your Backyard with Acima Leasing  

Here are some practical tips and ideas to make the most of the holiday season using lease-to-own with Acima Leasing:  

Backyard Furniture:  

• Consider using durable and stylish patio sets that withstand the weather.  

• Furniture sets with cushioned seating help create cozy corners for guests to relax.  

• Plan your space with modular furniture that can be easily rearranged to fit your hosting needs (1).  

Grill Essentials:  

• Shop for a quality grill that suits your cooking style. Acima Leasing works with retailers that offer a wide range of cooking appliances.  

• Remember to use accessories like grill mats, cleaning brushes, and covers to keep your grill in good condition (2).  

Party Decorations:  

• Warm, seasonal colors set the perfect festive tone.  

• Festive lights can also add a glow to gatherings and illuminate the outside of your home (3).  

Crafting a Comfortable and Inviting Space  

A holiday gathering can be simple to be memorable. The right furniture plays a key role in creating a comfortable, inviting atmosphere for your guests. Opt for versatile outdoor seating and a sturdy table that meets your needs, and let your furniture set the tone for relaxation (1). While decor adds charm, the furniture provides the foundation for an enjoyable gathering, helping guests ease into the mood to celebrate. 

Holiday Hosting Tip: Arrange your furniture to create conversation areas and make it easy for guests to chat and mingle. Consider positioning seats around focal points that naturally draw people together.  

Festive Fun for All  

During the holidays, your priorities shift to creating meaningful moments—whether it's gathering around the table or enjoying a cozy evening outside. With Acima Leasing, your lease-to-own option can help bring your vision to life. From appliances and furniture to electronics, you can shop for items that may help make your holiday season come together. With a well-planned setup, you can create a space where guests feel welcomed. 

Beyond the Backyard  

While the outdoor celebration sets the tone, make sure your interior is ready to accommodate an overflow crowd or unpredictable weather. Comfy couches or indoor dining tables can provide extra seating and be a cozy place for guests who want more time.
