Are you looking to spruce up your garden building aesthetics this Christmas?
Garden buildings are increasingly popular and can be used all year round as a home office, entertaining space and even as a guest room or extra storage. It’s likely you’re going to need that bit of extra space over the festive season when your house gets overrun with family and friends. The benefits of installing a garden building can be huge and make a great value addition to your life.
With Christmas just around the corner, you may want to add a sprinkle of festive magic to your garden building. Here are some ideas and trends for 2022 you don’t want to miss.
Natural Tones
To compliment your wooden garden space, work with natural textures inspired by the natural world such as wood, cork, stone, linen and wool to add depth and interest.

Year-round Decorations
It’s now becoming increasingly popular to refresh and repurpose decorations throughout the year. For example, it’s easy to redecorate a tree or wreath for Easter, Summer, Halloween, birthday celebrations and everything else you want to celebrate in between! You can buy a plain wreath and dress it up for Christmas and then re-accessorise it for your next celebration.
Take for example this plain wicker wreath. It’s easy to jazz it up with accessories throughout the year.
