With the lovely summer weather finally making an appearance you may be thinking of updating your garden furniture to add that wow factor.

Rattan Style garden furniture is becoming very popular for its durable hardwearing construction, as well as having curb appeal.

Depending on the size of your garden you may choose for dining a rattan sofa style set with either a corner sofa, table and stools or a sofa, table and armchairs. These sets tend to suit 6-10 people, but are large and take up a lot of space. If you have a smaller Gardner, you may opt for a small dining table with chairs. Bear in mind, with either set you may need shade. This may be an umbrella, gazebo, awning or a sail style canopy. For very small gardens or yards, a bistro-style table and chairs set would be a nice addition.  

Currently trending are garden snug seats and egg chairs which are beautiful centrepieces that can be decorated with lights or flowers to give your garden the wow factor you are after.

Cushioned outdoor benches are both stylish and useful for storing away garden toys or blankets when not in use. They also provide an extra seating area for guests.

Reclining sun loungers are great for those who enjoy relaxing back in the sun and topping up those tans.  

Splashes of colour is a must-have trend for gardens this year, so place some beautiful splashes of colour using scatter cushions to brighten up the plain garden furniture.

If you enjoy socialising then a garden bar is always a welcome feature to add. These provide a space for your guests to congregate and chat as well as provide a stable surface for drinks to be placed and snack to be offered.  

Above all plan your garden and measure the space you have available to avoid overcrowding it.
