Treat your home to a few simple refreshes and fall in love with your living space all over again
Over the last year or so, our homes have been our everything – our comfort and rest, our work places and study zones, not to mention cosy sanctuaries where we could feel safe. As our lives finally begin to open up again, it’s the perfect time to review arrangements at home and see what small tweaks might make life easier, more comfortable and altogether more lovely this summer.
Wake up refreshed
It’s not always easy to get a good night’s sleep in hot weather but fresh bed linen always helps. New sheets and pillowcases bring that luxury hotel feel and, if you have the budget, a temperature-regulating duvet is a great investment that promises supreme comfort through all seasons.
Coordinate in the bathroom
Decorating the smallest room is always disruptive but, thankfully, small style changes can have a big impact. New towels and a stylish storage set will instantly revamp this space, bringing a spa feel to even the busiest household.
Fill your home with flowers
Find satisfaction in organisation
Fed up with wading through half-empty packets and out-of-date produce in the kitchen? Storage canisters will help get life back on track again and bring a little more order, making any trip to the kitchen a happy one.
Cook like a pro
If you’ve discovered a love of cooking in recent months, a few specialist utensils are an easy way to elevate your favourite cuisine. Whether it’s a pestle-and mortar set, a pizza stone or a pasta machine, that perfect little helper will help you deliver crowd-pleasing dishes all summer long.
Dine in style
With entertaining friends and family back on the menu, you might want to wave goodbye to any mismatched china or chipped serving dishes. Our tableware department has dinner sets for all budgets from price-conscious ANYDAY Dine to fine china if your wedding list is finally coming together.
Layer up comforts
Textured blankets and throws are perfect for adding depth and interest to your room scheme and are an instant way to freshen up a tired sofa or armchair. Think indoor and outdoor – it may be sweltering in the garden at midday but we all know how the temperature can drop after the sun sets. Pile on the blankets and get every minute you can out of that relaxed evening in the garden.
Bring a new scent home
Accessorise your gardening
Don't forget that your garden has been working just as hard as any room in your home. Discovered green fingers? Treat yourself to some decent tools or a new pair of gardening gloves to keep those emerald digits safe and sound.
Find comfort in the shade
Why not create a favourite spot in your garden just for you? Sun-seekers can go ahead and soak up the full rays on the lawn but a seat in the shade can make an appealing escape for doing a few little household chores or enjoying a good book without the glare. It’s your choice.
