Hosting an alfresco celebration? We love parties outside but they present more opportunities for mistakes than indoor gatherings. One of the biggest gaffes is elemental - failing to consider evening cool offs that leave guests freezing; Or providing enough shade during daytime events. You also need to create just the right illumination that creates a welcoming atmosphere. Neither a glaring floodlight or wan string of Edison bulbs. Beware generic outdoor decor (Madison jar glasses are passe; so too are mini chalkboard menus with exaggerated calligraphy). If you’re ready to party - don’t miss the full report: How To Avoid The Worst Outdoor-Entertaining Mistakes on the website at www.melissapenfold.com now. Link in bio.

You may not make it to Mallorca or California this year but you can still capture that sunny vibe at home by lining your patio with pots filled with drought-tolerant herbs, olive trees and opting for neutral backdrops. We’ve noticed a surge of interest in planters and containers with patina. You won’t go wrong with materials such as terracotta or “live” metals that react with the elements. Oh and If you’re in search of great garden furniture - don’t miss our report on lifting your outdoors with the most timeless designs around at www.melissapenfold.com now.

It’s easy to identify lovely houses and gardens

It’s easy to identify lovely houses and gardens when you see them but what are the details that truly bring them to life? People often draft designers for the purpose of transforming spaces, inside and out, into extraordinary experiences but as reported recently, with the aid of a few basic design principles it’s possible to do it all on your own. Our book ‘Living Well By Deaign’ @vendomepress shows you’re far happier when your home feels “relaxed”, mirrors you and nourishes the soul. The chapter that focuses on our country house, pictured, reveals the importance of embracing a home’s setting and location. One of the spaces that matters most are private gardens - where you can screen out the world beyond, using vines, plants and trees. Find out how to wake up your home - and add some style to spaces, using what you have . It’s something anyone can achieve. Grab your copy today. ORDER NOW AT AMAZON. Link in bio.
