Outdoor Living

Photo Flamant
After the "Brisbane Cyclone" our garden furniture was totally destroyed. Glass ! broken, one chair not found, yet.
We love outdoor eating so much here in Australia and I have to make the decision very soon. Its already late. I want something heavy, sturdy, nice. My preference for a now goes to a stone table with iron chairs ( carvers maybe synthetic wicker?). Any suggestions?

    These are all so gorgeous! I'm really leaning towards the wicker. :)

    I don't think you could go wrong with any of these lovlies. My favourite would be the sixth picture down, but maybe I'm unduly influenced by the gorgeous hydrangeas in the background!

    I love that square table available at your shop.
    I adore the idea eating outside. Unfortunately I am always cold, so we enclosed our porch. On warm nights we open all of the french doors, and it gives us the feeling of eating in the garden.

    I am with Brooke in thinking that the square table is stunning. I am drawn to those Yardware chairs (are they weather proof?) , but all of the images are beautiful. Looking forward to seeing what you decide to go with.
    About to embark on decorating my snowflake cookies - will keep the photo in the previous post up for inspiration! Aim high is my motto for the day...
