Your Own Gazebo
What is a gazebo, and why are they so popular among outdoor entertainers? A gazebo is a pavilion structure that is freestanding. Typically they are built in an octagon shape, but this is not always the case. A gazebo will have a roof on it, however there are no closed walls. The sides are open to allow for the air to flow through the structure while it provides shade from the hot, bright sun. They are a great place to sit and relax with friends, or even by yourself to enjoy some quiet relaxation in the outdoors. For home use, you only need about sixty four square feet to set up your own gazebo. And for your patio, a bistro table and chairs is perfect.
