Shade sails...
Awnings, table umbrellas, shade sails, fast growing tree.
A free standing canopy....can be found at big box stores/'Walmarts/even grocery stores that carry lawn accessories.
If you have a Valence sheet you can use that tied or secured to poles.
I have one of those umbrellas that has a stand to the side and it works really well. We move it anywhere we need it, a bit heavy. bit worth it. Check out Aldies. You wouldn't believe how cheap there things are, even compared to WalMart. We have purchased that, a grill shade, lawn carts, plant stands, and window boxes and still didn't pay as much as one large umbrella and stand at any other stores. Quality is good too. The umbrella and grill shade are on their second summer and still look new.
