Spring is here and there are some small hints of warmer, longer days ahead, so why not start refreshing your back garden now? With luck, we’ll have a few good days that will allow you to try out your new summer-ready garden – and with your firepit ready to go, you will be able to stay warm even if the temperature drops suddenly as it can in spring!
Light It Up
Install lighting in your garden to ensure that you can stay out longer when it’s nice outside. Solar lights can be driven into the ground – many of them are mounted on a spike – and strings of lights can be draped along fences, trees, free-standing hammocks, or over gazebos. Have a look at your garden and see if there are any quirky places you can hang your lights!
Make It Cosy
The UK’s weather is capricious – hence its popularity as a topic of conversation! – and the temperature can drop sharply and then rise again, equally sharply. Keep your family and guests cosy by adding thick cushions and warm throws to your outdoor furniture and making sure your fire pit is ready to go at all times.

Functional and Pretty
When you buy garden furniture, make sure it is sturdy as well as being attractive. And if it can double as storage too, so much the better!
Stay Grounded
British gardens are often damp and sitting on the ground is unpleasant. Keep some waterproof sheets handy for picnics, or install wooden decking or a stone patio to keep everyone’s feet and bottoms dry!
And remember – if the weather’s horrible, give it half and hour and it will most likely change!
