Prepare your garden for the many many BBQ’s, parties and family visits coming up with the amazing beanbags from Extreme Lounging…
They’re super versitile and because we all know the British summer doesn’t always last as long as we would like, can be used inside, blending seamlessly into your furniture.
Our good friends at Extreme Lounging have also created so many different types of beanbags that there’s something for everyone!
The months of working hard from home and cold weather have meant that we haven’t really paid much attention to our gardens.
And whilst it may not be a jungle with hanging branches and grass up to our waists, but our gardens are definitely not fit for the parties and good times that we are planning for the summer of 2021.
But never fear, were here to help with loads of great outdoor inspo for you in the next few months, starting with these amazing sheepskins!
And, whilst there may have been a few slammed doors and “I hate you” thrown around over the years after they didn’t let us go to a party, which let’s be honest probably wasn’t the best idea in the first place…
We still love them very much!
