Welcome
As for many of us, my family’s summer holiday is set to be a staycation this year. It will be our first summer in our new home, so I’m banking on the novelty factor to make it special, but I’ve also been busy readying the house and garden to create as much holiday magic as possible. Our new outdoor sofa set (I plumped for the Havsten from Ikea) has to be my top purchase of 2021 so far – so comfy! I spray-painted an old coffee table black, invested in an outdoor rug, and voila, we have a living area that I suspect we’ll spend most of our time at home in, over the next few months.
