During the brief period of glorious summer weather in the UK, you might be venturing into your garden and wondering how to make the most of the sunshine. Here are some summery ideas for spending quality time at home while the sun shines:
Create a BBQ area
Imagine the ease and convenience of a dedicated BBQ area. Set up the BBQ oven and arrange everything you need around it. Think about seating, a table, a place to store condiments and maybe even some plants to create a definite partition to the space. Invite friends and family over and they’ll be sure to love your specially designed BBQ area.
Afternoon Tea
A quiet corner of the garden makes the perfect spot for an afternoon tea. How quintessentially English it is to sup on the finest tea whilst picking at dainty sandwiches followed by cake and scones with clotted cream and jam. For Afternoon tea boxes, visit www.afternoonteabox.com
Inflatable Fun
When the mercury rises, consider a large pool for the family to cool off in. They are available in a wide range of shapes and sizes and offer the perfect escape from the blistering heat. Don’t forget to always supervise little ones around water. Don’t forget pets too! A doggy paddling pool is just the ticket for Fido to keep cool in the hottest months.
Zen
Why not create a relaxing area for meditation or yoga? Think about matting, a calming water feature, incense burning and perhaps a windchime to get you in the right mood!
