STEP OUTSIDE
I absolutely love your magazine, especially the craft section. Last month, I was particularly interested in the windowpanestyle mirror. I’d just had a new front door fitted and was wondering what to do with the old one. Your article inspired me to use it as a feature in my garden, so I attached it to a previously ugly wall next to the mirror I made. It’s now the entrance to my secret garden. Thanks for the inspiration! Olive Ruane, by email Your Home says: What a wonderful little oasis you’ve created, Olive! It’s great to see you’ve made
I thought I’d share my garden makeover with you. We recently removed a dilapidated shed from our patio and the space this created is now a perfect suntrap. I bought the chair, table and accessories all
magazine, too.

Makeover magic
While in lockdown, I decided to give a new lease of life to my very old kitchen. I sanded, primed and repainted the units, then replaced the old handles with new ones. I’m so pleased with the outcome! Valentina, by email Your Home says: Your updated kitchen looks gorgeous, Valentina! We love the minimalist grey hue you’ve chosen.
I found the metal trellis dumped behind some garages (it was a squeeze wrestling it into my car). It is now a lovely spot for my morning cuppa – and all done on a shoestring budget! Carmel Ferguson, by email
The perfect pallet I thought you might like to see the window
box and faux shutters my husband made from old pallets. The window was unused after our bungalow conversion but instead of bricking it up, we decided to make it a feature. I love the transformation and it makes me so happy to see the flowers blooming now! Ann Hollis, by email Your Home says: Ann, this is such a creative use of old pallets. Your doorstep looks beautiful – we’re big fans of the flowers!

Your Home says: This looks like the loveliest sunny spot, Carmel! We especially love the bold blue wall colour peeping through the trellis.
