Greenery
Many Midsummer traditions focus on decorating with greenery and flowers, and while live plants are ideal, we understand that sometimes they’re hard to take care of. Luckily, there’s plenty of options nowadays for realistic looking faux greenery that you can use to decorate if you weren’t born with a green thumb. Plus, you can reuse it year after year!

For Lighting a Fire
Another big part of many Midsummer traditions is fire. Get bonfire ready with a firepit and other outdoor fire essentials, or if you live somewhere where you can’t exactly start a bonfire outdoors, light some summery scented candles to keep traditions alive.
