Fire Pits and Fall go together like any good holiday pairing (pumpkins & halloween…turkey & thanksgiving…christmas & santa). And in this household, the weekend is not complete without putting in some quality time around one. There’s something nostalgic and special that happens for me and Brian. Some of the best conversations and food have been shared while sitting in front of it’s warming flame. Date Nights, family time and evenings with friends can all benefit from a fire pit addition. And after reading (and loving) this book last fall, I’ve justified having one, is also beneficial to my mental health. We had one at our wedding and I hope we continue to have them every.single.fall! At our last house (photo above), we had a store bought pit, that we “built-in” with pavers. In looking for a new addition this year, I’m currently eyeing the following 5 affordable fire pits! (some of them also currently on sale!) I hope you too get some quality time around the fire this fall!
