Food, friends, fresh air - find out how to paint yourself the perfect garden entertaining space this season.
Prep your outdoor space for winter entertaining
Gather friends and family around your garden kitchen for a Big Chill Grill they won't forget. Painting the barbecue station in a warm, natural shade such as Natural Stone (we used Sage for the countertop) will bring uplifting colour to the garden all year round. Wooden crates in Fresh Rosemary can be used as storage or to transport any essentials from indoors.
A firepit is an essential part of an outdoor winter get-together and Cuprinol Garden Shades can also add fresh colour to the place you stash your firewood. The masonry around this logstore was painted in Natural Stone and protects it from damp, while the rich Black Ash interior makes a feature of the logs and creates a cosy contrast.
Low wooden deck chairs painted in Muted Clay and a coffee table in Willow also bring the garden colour scheme together. You'll want to use these pieces all year round, but for the winter months, the addition of cosy blankets (and mulled wine or hot chocolate) will encourage your guests to linger.
