Get the Outdoor Look: A Style Guide

Things are starting to heat up! Summer is officially right around the corner (I know we’ve been saying this for months, but this time it really is hot on our heels) which means mass migration to the outdoors, plenty of BBQs and super long evenings spent with family and friends. There’s nothing we love more than warm weather and the great outdoors, so jazzing up the garden seems like a bit of no-brainer.
Whether you’re looking to add a sense of cosiness to your patio or want to create a real show-stopper piece in your exterior space, allow us to guide you in the right direction with our range of outdoor metalwork products and a sprinkle of outdoor decor inspiration.
Styling your garden this summer season may seem like a mammoth task but, after
a bit of gardening, it’s actually very easy to transform your green space into
something truly special. We’ve searched high and low for some beautifully
styled gardens and we’ve found some real gems to inspire you.
Taking inspiration from a combination of modern styling and
vintage boho, this charming outdoor set-up is as practical as it is inviting!

For those who like to keep their grass clear throughout the year, the patio is where all the fun is at! Patios provide the perfect canvas for showcasing your personal style and are the ideal place to start outdoor decorating. These patios are absolute goals, and here’s exactly how to reach them.
When you think of a patio you normally think ‘back garden’ but your front porch can look just as stylish. This porch is a beautiful combination of industrial and country inspired design. With its practical herb planters, outdoor lighting and rustic accessories, what more could you want from an outdoor space this summer season?

Of course, your garden is the most important space when it
comes to Summertime entertaining but making a good first impression with the
front of your house is just as important. Your door really sets the tone and style for
your home, so it’s definitely worth an upgrade!
