GARDEN PARTY

Lovers of florals, listen up – here’s how to throw a relaxed backyard gathering that will have everyone talking
GARDEN PARTY

1 COUNTRY CHIC

If this country charmer of a home appeals, but you live in suburbia, you can still emulate a few of its elements to create a facade that’s just as inviting, if somewhat more contemporary. Paint your front door a gorgeous pastel blue or even pink, let vines or roses clamber up the wall and fill beds or buckets with blooms and blossoms galore!.

summertime and the livin’ is easy... truer words have never been said. And where better to enjoy this sultry season than the outdoors! If you’re hosting a gathering of your nearest and dearest, opt for a spot outside where you can enjoy fresh air as you sip on a cool drink and savour a snack, all the while chatting and laughing the afternoon away. And, since it’s a garden party, it should literally be overflowing with flowers, from fresh arrangements to florals on fabric you can use for shade, table linen and cushy seating options. You’ll find big, blowsy blooms on fabric are more contemporary in nature while dainty designs offer a vintage charm that is just as appealing. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to get your alfresco on!

2 SEAMLESS CONNECTION

Open the doors and blur the lines between inside and out by repeating summery florals in both spaces. Wallpaper, upholstery, soft furnishings and tablecloths are your stock in trade.

3 TAKE A SEAT

All spaces benefit from relaxed seating, but you might want to upgrade from deck chairs to sturdy yet comfy folding chairs that move easily between the home and garden.
