Now that summer is here, we all go outside to enjoy the beautiful days and nights of life outdoors! Barbecues, parties and breaks in general are the order of the season, but if you haven’t tidied up your garden yet, you may need some ideas…
all weather seats
Woven outdoor furniture has become extremely popular, especially in a natural-looking wood color. Furniture made with a fully welded aluminum frame will offer a great option for year-round outdoor use because it will remain completely rust-free.
swing seats and swings
A swing is a beautiful centerpiece for a garden or backyard and adds a touch of youth to the atmosphere. Wood is a classic material for swings, but now many swings are made of copper as well. Decide if the swing will stand alone or if it will hang from a tree. A freestanding swing can be placed almost anywhere. If the swing is going to hang from a tree branch, call a professional to help you test the strength of the branches and install the swing.
bistro style furniture
Metal furniture has become widely used to replicate old cast iron furniture that was beautiful, but prone to rust. Today’s furniture can be made to resemble old cast iron furniture with either aluminum or stainless steel that resists rust. These metals are also very heavy, which is ideal for windy areas.
Traditional teak furniture
Teak furniture, over time, allows its wood to lose the reddish-brown hue it has when new and take on a beautiful silver-gray finish. To prevent the silver color of the wood, apply a polish to the wood after it has been sanded to restore it to its original condition. The furniture resists moisture, frost, and sun damage, making it perfect for outdoor use. Another thing that teak does naturally as it ages is to produce hairline cracks; these do not affect the strength or stability of the furniture at all.
Umbrellas and Shadows
Shade is an extremely important element for any garden or patio. The curtains can be fixed or independent. Fixed awnings or wall mounted umbrellas can be attached to a house. Freestanding shades can be placed on a table or attached to a flexible arm to allow the shade to be positioned differently as the sun moves.
outdoor benches
A beautiful way to finish off a garden path is to add a bench. A bench will work best located away from noise; a place that allows a mixture of sun and shade during the day. With a variety of wood and metal benches available, consider the size and location of the area where the bench will sit and use that environment to guide your decision on which bench will fit best.
Steamers and Loungers
Sun loungers offer a great way to relax in a garden. The loungers are multi-positional, so it’s easy to find a way to get comfortable. Loungers often come on wheels and are stackable, making moving and storage much easier. Many loungers also come with matching tables and chairs to make a complete garden set.
loungers
Chaise lounges are a great way to relax outdoors in style. They are great focal points due to their large size. They come in a traditional rectangular shape or a more modern circular shape. Daybeds should be stored indoors during the winter, although there are models made from weather-resistant materials, such as polyrattan.
Garden chairs
A new version of the deckchairs is the double deckchair, made with recycled yacht sails that provide resistance and weather resistance. The lounger receives a stamp that identifies the original sail with the option to put a name on it.
garden storage
Garden storage is an important addition to any outdoor entertaining area. A cart can be a great item for moving things from the kitchen to the outside. A shelf mounted on an exterior wall will add storage space. A cushion chest can be used to store toys, games, or garden supplies.
How to take care of your garden furniture
• The tarp must be brought inside at the end of the season. Remove dirt with a stiff brush.
• Sunshades can be washed with mild soap and cold water.
• Teak should be cleaned every six months with a special teak soap or a mild soap and a brush.
• All-weather fabrics (such as rattan furniture) can be washed with soap and water, and can also be flushed at the beginning of each season.
• Painted metal furniture can be washed with soap and water.
