Sponsored

When nosotros moved into our solid x years agone the dorsum garden was completely derelict relieve for a patchy lawn too a pathway beaten inwards past times neighbourhood cats! It looked completely uninviting! I cause got to confess, the English linguistic communication daughter inwards me has ever pined for a large garden which I could fill upwards amongst plants too flowers - hence I was a petty sceptical almost this aspect of the house. Over fourth dimension though, we've like shooting fish in a barrel chipped away at it - pulling upwards the grass, adding climbers too perennials too lots of garden furniture. And hence this week, nosotros spiced it upwards amongst a charge of cosy pillows, blankets, lanterns too other accessories courtesy of my wonderful sponsor, Danish homeware construct Nordal. It feels hence much cosier now. I snapped a few pictures to percentage amongst you. I promise yous similar it every bit much every bit nosotros do! 

One of things I dearest the most is the chocolate-brown rust archway from a local garden centre - nosotros had to take a department of the beech hedge to stand upwards for it inwards but the infinite instantly felt bigger. H5N1 large umbrella also helped to create a to a greater extent than intimate feel, particularly since our garden is overlooked.

I dearest lanterns, they assistance to calorie-free upwards the plants too flowers later nighttime too construct a dorsum yard experience extra mysigt (plus they're perfect when Malmö is such a windy identify to live!).

Since the garden is surrounded past times hedges, the exclusively way to add together flowers such every bit these Anemones was to utilisation makeshift blossom boxes too plant pots. I've also got some pretty, terra cotta pots (see farther down) which I flora at a local nursery.

We picked upwards the L-shaped sofa a few years agone inwards a garage sale (search for 'black rattan outdoor sofas' too I'm certain yous tin dismiss discovery a similar one) - it's soooo comfortable! And fifty-fifty to a greater extent than hence later throwing inwards a charge of linen cushions too blankets. The girls similar to chill on the floor cushions!

I planted some mojito mint a few months agone too it's gone completely wild - which way cocktails galore roughly hither - too fifty-fifty some left over to construct tea. The brass tray is from Nordal.

Often oil lamps are a way amend road to accept inwards the garden than candles since they shelter the open fire too tin dismiss live refilled. Underneath the tabular array is a kilim carpet which I flora inwards my Danish neighbour's garage (thank yous Daphne!) - I dearest it but sadly it's non outdoor-proof hence it'll demand to live taken indoors when the pelting comes downward (read: often!). 

I dearest the patina on former terra cotta pots. This is ane of my favourites (I've had it for years, it's perfect for lavander too salvia! 

Right. I cause got to confess - bamboo isn't the best outdoor slice of furniture pick for Sweden (if yous alive inwards a wonderful consistently warm clime you're way amend off!). BUT it does await pretty nosotros idea we'd hand it a larn too relish it spell it lasts (to larn inwards larn that petty fleck farther nosotros throw it into storage over the winter) - nosotros bought this fix a few years agone but at that topographic point are lots of beautiful sets online! The linen blanket too chair cushions are both Nordal.

My Mother gave the antique bench to me every bit a introduce years agone - sadly it's hence rusty these days that it's non actually possible to sit down on it, but I couldn't demeanour to portion amongst it hence it at nowadays functions every bit somewhere to shop extra blankets too plants. 

The string lights actually add together that finally demeanour upon inwards the evenings - too they're hence subtle too! I flora these inwards town, too I know at that topographic point are a charge on places similar Etsy. 

I promise yous enjoyed the tour! It's non a large space, but nosotros retrieve it's a super cosy identify for the menage unit of measurement to hang out in!
