Do your outdoor tiles need a revamp? Instead of replacing - which can be expensive and timelyclean the area, add a coat of primer and, once dry, paint the tiles your chosen colour (make sure it’s outdoor paint) and finish with a good quality sealant.

Create a wonderful outdoor space for less this summer.

Making a display area in your garden or on your terrace is a fun activity that will add colour and style. Metal storage racks look great weathered and will add a rustic feel to your garden - pick one up from a car boot or use an interior one that you no longer need inside. Layer it up with plants for colour and wooden crates for storage.

This may seem like an expensive idea, but you really can create your own outdoor kitchen without spending too much. All you need is a BBQ - which you may already have - a corner to keep it in, and some extra worktop space for food prep.
