Bargain Garden Furniture

I don't shop for my food at Asda but I always look at their website, amongst others when I'm looking for household items, as we all know quality isn't always determined by what you pay anymore. When I was a child you could pretty much guarantee that if you paid more for something the quality increased, not anymore, that's why I always do my research before I buy.

Last year or was it the year before? I bought a really nice woven based, glass topped garden table from Asda just as their sale started, It has weathered extremely well and still looks like new. So when I decided I wanted a small patio set for the back terrace of the house I went straight to Asda.

I'm super pleased with it, £49 including delivery. I got the cushions from Debenhams online (another shop I never actually go in) in their sale for £16 for the two including delivery. Such good value even comparing to Ebay and Etsy. I've gone a bit mad on this Coral colour and I have now noticed Monty Don has the same type and colour table in his garden, which pleases me.  Although my love of this shade has been with me since I painted my dining room Coral last year. Our lovely son has been painting the fence behind in Cuprinol's Shades range, the colour is Willow.

We picked some strawberries from the garden last night, not many, but bloomin delicious with salted caramel ice cream.
