Create The Perfect Porch Or Patio For Summer

Summer is here, and with it beautiful sunny days and nights that beg to be spent outdoors. Whether you want to create a cosy nook for your morning cuppa or a vibrant space for evening get-togethers, we've put together a few tips to help you create the perfect porch or patio for summer.

Plan your space
Before you start moving things around or adding new furniture, decide on what you would like to use your space for. If you want to create an intimate breakfast nook, opt for smaller bistro-style sets, like the vintage Nelly's Nook T42 Patio Suite, for relaxing in plush comfort choose the Dallas 4 Piece Rattan Patio Set, or if you want to entertain large groups the Sabrina 9-Piece Patio Suite would be the perfect fit for you. If you have a bit of space, the Lenox offers the best of both worlds, with a comfy dining table as well as cosy chairs for relaxing.

Add Functional and Stylish Accents
Décor accessories like ottomans and cushions add a chic touch to your outdoor space, while also elevating the comfort level. Choose bold prints to add colour to your outdoor space or go for neutral tones if you prefer a simpler look. The Myra Champagne Bucket with Stand will also elevate the sophistication level of your outdoor space while keeping your refreshing drinks cool on hot days.

Protect Your Investment
Ensure the longevity of your furniture by investing in protective covers. Shield your outdoor investments from the elements to enjoy their beauty for seasons to come.

Have fun in the sun
Don’t take yourself too seriously this summer! Bring in an element of fun with the Calypso Hanging Chair or the Samba 3-Division Garden Swing – perfect for swinging summer afternoons away.

Stay shaded and comfortable
Beat the summer heat and keep sun-safe with shading that suits your style – from versatile umbrellas for easier manoueuvrability to gazebos that will keep a large area cool and comfortable all day.
