In case you're new around here, this is my long-running series (over three years now!) where I share some budget ways to update your home for the new season, featuring all the best new bits available on the high street. You can have a read through all my previous posts in this series here - there's lots of bits included in previous posts that are now in the sale, so always worth revisiting just in case.
For Summer 2021, there's lots of beautiful patio and garden bits available on the high street, all perfect for adding a seasonal touch to your home.
There's so many lovely dining pieces about at the moment for eating alfresco, and pack them all up in that beautiful (and absolute bargain!) picnic bag. Turn your garden into a insect haven with a bee B&B, and give your fence or shed a lick of paint - how lovely is that green shade?

Looking to update your outdoor space on a serious budget? There's so many bargain bits here, from a table and chairs to parasol which will give your patio, decking or balcony a facelift. If you've got a wall or fence you're not keen on, hide it with some trellis which you can grow plants up, and a less-than-attractive patio can be hidden with an outdoor rug. Finally, lighting is so important for creating a cosy atmosphere during summer evenings, so pop some string lights and lanterns about.

Which bits do you like the look of? Are you thinking of updating your outdoor space this summer?
