Spring Alfresco

I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying this beautiful Spring weather we've been having lately. We spend a lot of time outdoors this time of year, dining alfresco at home, as well as picnics at the beach. I'm starting to think of what we'll need to make these really special times, and have collated a few of my faves...

I love the Hamilton Pot Stands from Freedom. Topped with a coloured pot filled with bright flowers or lush greenery, they will look fabulous on your deck or patio. 

Protection for your table, or just another gorgeous injection of pattern, the Printed Wool Felt Coasters from LET LIV will be a welcome addition to your home. 

A glossy lacquered Lime Lantern from Redcurrent is gorgeous and fun as well as being practical for your alfresco dining. 

You need a large Beach Bag for your picnics and beach trips, and the Naxos from Citta Design is a beauty. 

The Nobu Dining Suite from Big Save is a classic staple for a New Zealand home, and provides the perfect base for your outdoor living. 

Spring & Summer wouldn't be complete with some outdoor stripes, so don't go past the Weekender Stripe Cushion from Freedom. 

And the most perfect picnic blanket ever will soon be available from the Cush & Nooks online shop. Large enough to fit you and your extended family, they have a canvas backing perfect for picnics, and roll up to a handy carry size with handles. I'll be telling you more about these soon, once I've got them loaded into the shop.
