Must Have Items For Your Garden This Summer

It’s June, which means it’s time to get into the summer spirit at home. Draw back the curtains and let in that natural sunlight. Pack away all your dark and gloomy bed sheets and replaces them with bright summer colours. You can’t revamp your entire house every time a new season comes around, but you can take advantage of the extra sun and get your garden looking great for the summer. Start getting your garden ready for the summer months with these accessories:

Sun Lounger

With the blistering heat of the sun comes a need to lie down and relax. Buy some sun loungers for your back garden so you can tan at home. It saves you from making the trip to a busy beach, and you’ll have your family to wait on your beck and call. We are especially loving this lounger from IKEA which is perfect for small and large spaces and can easily work as a stylish cushioned seat for guests to sit once the seat is laid flat.

Hammocks

You don’t need two perfectly placed trees to have a hammock. You can buy some outdoor hammocks that are ideal for summer. Relax in your garden and feel like you’re chilling between two Hawaiian palm trees. Perfect either in the shade or out in the sun and you can easily find a hammock that will fit your balcony or small outdoor area!

Tables & Chairs

If you’re throwing garden parties this summer, you’ll need some tables and chairs outdoors! You can get many different types that vary in style and cost whether you are looking for a few seats to entertain or a full table for a larger party. Regardless the size of your outdoor table, this is an area where you can have fun with table setting and table top decor.

Summer is the only time of the year you actually get to enjoy your food outside. This means outdoor eating and lots of BBQ’s so make sure you’re prepared.

Grills 

• You can’t bring your grill outside to cook, so you’ll need something portable. You can get a small Lotus grill at Cuckooland to use either inside or outdoors. The grill is a vital part of BBQ season, so make sure you get one that cooks well. Know how to cook and prepare your meat before you start, you don’t want everyone spending summer with food poisoning!

• A BBQ wouldn’t be complete without the drinks, so you should invest in portable mini fridges to keep everything cold outdoors. This will save everyone going back inside to get a new cold beer from the fridge. Alternatively, you could buy drinks buckets that can be filled with ice. You just pop the drinks in the icy buckets, and they’re nice and chilled. Make sure you keep it in the shade, or the sun will melt all the ice!

• Summer wouldn’t be summer without some classic paper plates. There’s just an unwritten rule that burgers and hot dogs must be served on paper plates outdoors. Stock up on these throwaway plates, ready for the summer ahead.

The great thing about the summer season is that it allows you to experience the outdoor world. The sun is shining, and everything looks so bright and beautiful. There’s finally a reason for you to make use of your garden again. Your garden has been left languishing for half a year; now you can finally enjoy it in the sun. So dress it up for the months of outdoor parties, relaxing and BBQ’s!
