Garden style : inspirational styling for your outside space

Lake, Selina (Author). Whiting, Rachel. (Added Author).

In her latest book, Garden Style, Selina Lake draws on her love of outdoor living and reveals how to make the most of any outdoor space, no matter what size or shape. Selina begins by describing her sources of garden inspiration - famous gardens, specialist nurseries and garden centres, plant catalogues and old botanical prints. Armed with ideas, she moves on to Chapter Two, Decorating your Garden, which is packed with suggestions for container gardening, using recycled elements, styling truly tiny spaces (including balconies and window boxes), sourcing and displaying vintage gardenalia, and introducing garden features such as bird baths and dovecotes. In the next chapter, Bringing the Outside In, she harvests flowers and foliage from the garden to provide seasonal adornment for her home. Chapter Four, Garden Rooms, Greenhouses and Sheds, taps into the current trend for versatile garden buildings that allow you to make the most of your outdoor space. Next, in Relaxing Outdoors, Selina explains how to transform your garden into a stylish space for entertaining or just hanging out all summer long, with ideas on furniture, accessories, lighting, firepits and more. And finally, in Eating Outdoors, Selina offers advice on growing your own veg and creating an inviting outdoor dining room for dining (and lunching) alfresco for as long as the weather allows. The book is peppered with design ideas and easy projects, including printing and dying napkins, fashioning easy wreaths and garlands and making seed packets and plant labels. There are also simple gardening hints and tips on choosing easy-to-grow garden plants and growing your own produce. Perfect for anyone who wants to make the most of their own little patch of green, Garden Style will also appeal to those who might have neglected their outdoor space and need help to see the potential in their plot.
