The dreamboat gardens…

I am currently sitting typing this in a dress. That’s right. A dress. No cardigan, jacket, socks or gloves. Just a dress. The hot weather continues and London is revelling people! My favourite part about English summers is the incredibly long days - after a lovely dinner on Saturday, Jordan and I took a long stroll through the common while the sun was still blazing. It was blissful. It got me thinking about the long hours we spend in front of screens, slumped in front of the tv or a laptop. If I could, I would spend every evening outside, just enjoying the scenery. Of course it helps when you have scenery to enjoy and even more so when you have an outdoor fireplace. I have been filing these babies in the ‘future dream house’ folder.

    Just like indoor fires, they create such a lovely atmosphere. We spend pretty much every evening dining alfresco in Summer. I really want to add a pizza oven to our outside area. x

    Those images make me want to start working on our backyard asap but we are waiting for permits from the city, without them the contractor cannot start the work. Hopefully we will be able to utilize our backyard soon. We like to spent as much time outside as possible...

    I didn't even know that was a thing! Why? If you need a fireplace, wouldn't it be chilly enough to be inside? Or maybe it's to roast marshmallows! Okay, now I'm sold.

    i can file this in my future dream house too. i once rented a place that had a fireplace in the yard - though not quite as lovely as these, since i have wanted to have one again.
