The new year is here, the days are dark and the weather is chilly. This doesn’t mean that you can’t take the time for yourself to plan a January refresh! By taking steps to add simple additions such as solar lights, you can start envisioning brighter days in your new and beautiful garden.
Give your space a new lease of life by sprucing up your garden with colourful plants and flowers. Low-budget winter plants such as cyclamen and winter flowering Clematis give your garden colour and structure around the boundary line of paths and fences. Adding shrubs for all year round keep the garden from looking empty and grey.
Now that you have your chosen plants, start envisioning which lighting would suit your space. Our solar lights are the perfect, low-cost addition to creating a warm atmosphere in your garden. Solar lights require little to no maintenance and are very energy efficient with the average fairy light lasting days. Thanks to modern technology, solar lighting is as bright as mains-powered lighting, without the cost of running electrics through the garden.
Finally, fill your outdoor space with some furniture. Take a look at marketplaces and charity shops to give old furniture a new lease of life. Whether it is a bench, hammock or dining table and chairs, filling your space with comfortable furniture will create an inviting atmosphere. With the addition of solar fairy lights, you will be able to enjoy your garden well into the evening.
