If your backyard’s looking more “meh” than amazing, don’t stress — leveling up your outdoor vibe doesn’t have to drain your bank account or take a ton of work. Amazon has plenty of useful, stylish items for your yard at budget-worthy prices. I scoured the site for the most baller backyard finds under $30, and this list features plenty of inexpensive upgrades that slap. From aesthetic lighting to brilliant gadgets for your garden or table, you’ll soon be on your way to your personal outdoor oasis.

If you don’t have tables in your yard, these beverage stakes will give your guests a place to keep their drinks. They stake right into the ground upright and stand 2.7 feet tall to protect your sips from dirt. And since there are four colors, it is easy to remember whose drink is whose.

These solar wind chimes feature a combination of metal chimes and six color-changing LED light bars. During the day, they look like a regular set of wind chimes. At night, their solar-powered lights switch on and transition through seven vibrant colors for up to eight hours. One reviewer wrote, “I had no idea this would be so beautiful! It is amazing to look at, and the sound of the chimes is so calming [...] When we sit outside at night, I just keep staring at it! Buy it! You will LOVE it!”

Add clean-burning isopropyl or ethanol to this tabletop firepit’s reusable wick, and you’ll have a small fire for your outdoor seating space. Although under $30, its steel base, tempered glass, and white stone look expensive and sleek. Once lit, it provides about an hour of burn time. Bonus: It includes three roasting forks for making s’mores.

This inflatable lounger will keep you super comfortable during hot months. With a built-in pillow, a cushy base, a cup holder for your drink, and a large surface area to stretch out, you may never want to get up. Fill the lounger with water to enjoy a refreshing soak, or stick it in your pool to float.

This portable mister will be game changing if you struggle to stay cool in your yard. It hooks up to your hose and features a convenient, bendable design to direct the mist where you need it. Once set up, it will cool the surrounding area by up to 20 degrees Fahrenheit. “So easy to use (literally just screw into water hose),” wrote one reviewer. “It’s helped our porch not be so miserable in the summer, especially while grilling. It’s great that you can pose it in any configuration — we have it wrapped around a pergola beam, which is perfect. So affordable!”

These ceramic mushrooms have unique, hand-painted tops and stems and easily stake into a planter, pot, or grass. Made from weatherproof ceramic, they’ll hold up through any weather and add a pop of color to your garden. Arrange them by flower beds to add a fairy garden or cottage core vibes to your yard. “Cute brightly colored decorative mushrooms for garden pots. Well made and should be okay withstanding weather conditions outside,” one reviewer wrote.

Designed with a chic white and blue tie-dye, these tabletop torches will look stunning on your outdoor table (lit or unlit). Group them or spread them out for a unique centerpiece. Then, fill them with fuel and light their fiberglass wicks for showstopping lighting. Each torch also includes a convenient metal snuffer to extinguish flames. One reviewer wrote, “Didn’t have to worry about them being knocked over like the traditional torches that stick in the ground. The color scheme is beautiful and so fun. The value for money is great, with three per set, and their performance is great, lasting about six to eight hours per torch.”

Stick these magnetic grill hooks onto the side of your grill, and you’ll have three hooks for storing your grilling utensils. Their super-strong magnetic grips and nonslip rubber backings securely hold everything from spatulas to scrubbers. Best of all, they’re rust-resistant and weatherproof, so you can leave them outdoors.

With gold confetti and a rose gold color, this inflatable cooler looks like a chic, poolside party float. It has room for four regular-sized drinks and two large beverage bottles in its six cup holders, with room for snacks and a Bluetooth speaker in its center compartment. The back also features a tablet holder.

Because this portable Bluetooth speaker has a rugged, waterproof build, it’s perfect for taking outdoors (or even poolside). It packs 12 watts of power and features a helpful bass-boosting mode for bass-heavy sound. Pair it with your phone and enjoy up to 24 hours of music on a single charge.

Crafted from durable bamboo with a food-safe surface, this portable picnic table is perfect for enjoying a backyard charcuterie, dessert, or full-on meal. It features a spacious surface, four slots for holding wine glasses, and a bottle holder slot. It also easily folds up for storage.

Featuring cracked glass and 30 fairy lights inside, these hanging solar lanterns will add a magical touch to your backyard. Their ornamental design looks great in the daytime, and at dusk, their fairy........
