Cool cues
Relax with a book on laidback chairs in beachy hues, and add oversized comfy cushions for extended lazing.
A new leaf
Even a small space or quiet corner can become a shady oasis with a selection of leafy plants in a cluster of pots.Â
Chill out
Find a spot in the shade, like a corner of the deck, for a comfy daybed loaded with plump cushions.
Rustic charm
Create a tranquil corner with a gently trickling water feature, a rough-hewn bench and a repurposed wheelbarrow filled with pot plants. Look for quirky accessories, such as these wrought-iron birdcages, to give your space a point of difference.
Splendour in the grass
Take afternoon tea on the lawn with an array of patterned floor cushions, perfect for whiling away a lazy day.
Flight of fancy
Pretty up your trees and hedges with muted pastel bird houses, and invite nature home.
Colour your world
Pops of colour in the shape of a cheerful sun shade bring the beach home to your backyard.
