Patio Umbrella
Ensombra Patio Umbrella
We will try to compile a list of nice modern patio umbrellas before summer. The Ensombra patio umbrella caught or eye with its sleek minimal look and smart system which allows wind to pass through. The Ensombra outdoor umbrella was inspired by oriental art. Its simple opening system recalls how fans work, through a repetition of a module that turns on its central axis. Odosdesign reinterpreted a traditional object by applying new materials which, together with its structure, provide it with great visual lightness. New materials are employed to achieve a combination of light, color and shades that turn a garden or terrace into an idyllic and lively space. This beautiful modern patio umbrella received multiple awards: First Prize Grand Design Awards London, First Prize Gioia Casa, Delta selection and CDIM Selection Professional.

Add a bit of twinkle to your garden. I will!
Turn an empty tin of tomatoes into a fabulous outdoor lantern - just what my little garden needs... A bit more twinkle!
What you will need:
- Used and empty aluminium can;
- Soapy water;
- Felt-tip pen;
- A pattern - we used a heart;
- 1 metre of ribbon (the prettier the better)
- Electric drill;
- Narrow drill bit;
- Safety glasses;
- Tea-light
How to make a lantern from an aluminium can
- Soak tin in soapy water to loosen the label.
- Using the pen, mark your pattern on the side of the tin and two evenly spaced points at the rim for a ribbon handle.
- Insert a narrow bit into an electric drill and carefully drill a series of holes in the tin. Handle with care as the inside will be sharp.
- Thread ribbon through the two holes at the rim and knot.
- Place a tea-light inside (carefully) and hang from a branch in the garden.
AND... Wallah!! Fabulous lighting for any occassion. I perhaps will change mine up a bit with some pretty, girly ribbon!
A new love for swimming
I have just realised I adore swimming and not just because of the summer heat. It makes me think, in our next home, we need enough space to put in a fabulous pool if there isn't already one. This will be music to my husband's ears who is a water baby through and through! Kellie x
