Get Up & Go Outdoors

The beginning of June and, in theory, the weather should start turning warmer! Make the most of the June and the rest of summer by creating your own outdoor living space. There's plenty of ideas and they don't all have to cost a small fortune. Just prepare yourself a tranquil space, from a city rooftop to a traditional country cottage garden; a place to recharge your batteries or have fun with family and friends. The most important thing this month, Great Outdoors Month, is to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors.
