Outdoor canopies: Create an outdoor space with a canopy

You probably have everything you need right in your own home to turn an empty space outside into a “place.” Trees take years and years to grow to give you shade and even then the cover from the elements they provide is minimal. A large piece of cloth, outdoor canopy tarp or drop cloth can go up in minutes and voila! you've got the perfect place to lie in a hammock or toss a blanket on the ground for a quiet afternoon of reading your favorite book. Almost makes you reminisce back to being a kid when making an outdoor tent out of a sheet using some benches as the walls would keep you happy for hours, even days.
