We are slowly moving towards spring and you can tell! The sun has already shown its face again, the days are getting longer and the birds are singing. High time to prepare your garden so you can fully enjoy the summer. In this blog, we give you a few tips to make your garden spring and summer proof!
Tidy up your garden
Before you can sit in your garden again, you need to roll up your sleeves. With spring in the air, it can be very liberating to do some spring cleaning. Start by sweeping the terrace and removing weeds between the tiles or cut the grass. Now that you're cleaning up, you can also think about whether your garden needs redecorating. The garden furniture can be taken out of the shed and dusted. So you can soon start enjoying the spring sunshine.
Bring spring into your garden
Is your garden clean, tidy and calm? Then see if you can brighten it up with some nice plants. After all, a garden shouldn't be an empty concept! Besides, plants have a positive effect on people. Choose plants that flower for a long time so that you can enjoy them for months on end.
Besides plants, there are many other ways to make your garden more beautiful, such as garden cushions, table accessories, garden lighting and other decorations. Beautiful garden lighting includes our Cosiscoop collection by Cosi fires or the oil lamps by Esschert. These subtle garden lights or heaters immediately create more atmosphere.
Provide good material
If you are going to organise that neighbourhood barbecue or birthday barbecue in the garden, you do want to have a well-functioning and complete barbecue. Therefore check if your barbecue and other outdoor cooking material still works well and is complete. Clean and rustproof your barbecue so that the dishes taste delicious. Is it in need of replacement? Then now is a good time to buy a new grill. This season, we have included a popular barbecue brand in our range, namely the kamado barbecues by The Bastard. With this multifunctional barbecue you can grill, bake, smoke and stew.
Besides a traditional barbecue or Kamado BBQ, there are even more possibilities for outdoor cooking. How about plancha baking? This is a whole new form of barbecuing and cooking outside. With a BonFeu BonBiza or an outdoor kitchen from our OFYR collection, you can discover the world of plancha baking and surprise your guests!
Warmth and atmosphere in the garden
In addition to tidying up the garden and adding new cheerful elements, it is important to incorporate warmth elements into the garden. If you've had a nice barbecue, you want to be able to stay outside longer without getting cold.
Within our range we have plenty of options for patio heaters to extend the evenings. Take the Sunwood Marino garden fireplace, for example. This is a suitable atmospheric fireplace for outside with a low or high lounge set. With the gas pressure regulator you determine how much it consumes and how intense the flames are. Because of the swivel wheels, the gas garden fireplace is easy to move and to put down at any desired location.
In addition to standing patio heaters, we also have hanging heaters in our range that take up little space. Finally, you can go for a beautiful fire bowl or garden fireplace by BonFeu. In short, it's time to get into action and get your garden ready for spring with our tips. We've recently added some great new products and brands, so we're definitely ready for them!
