In summer, we spend more time outdoors eating and lounging, and to entertain well so you can linger longer you need a good dining set!
Wood and metal are wonderful options for outdoor dining sets, however if your outdoor scene is one that is predominately neutral, one design trick to add interest to your outdoor space is to infuse it with texture.
Woven materials like rattan, seagrass, and wicker do just that! 
Once you have your dining set in place, create a welcoming scene by laying down an outdoor rug and hanging string lights for evening ambiance.
Most rattan, wicker, and seagrass pieces are neutral, so boost the appeal of your dining set with colorful cushions and decorative pillows in outdoor materials.
Layer with glassware and dishes in vibrant hues and surround the scene with potted plants in bloom and there you have it: a welcoming outdoor dining space where you can enjoy the bliss of summer for months to come.
Beautiful wicker outdoor tables and chairs are available in a variety of styles at Lamps Plus.
