  1. Thank you for the video. I think it would be nice to see what the colour of furniture make with the seatplaces

  2. Such a great and helpful video Alexandra. I love that set you are sitting on, great find! I’ve come to realize that if I buy the furniture I absolutely love it will all go together in some way. I found a table and chairs set on FB and after a fresh coat of paint by absolutely love it! Thank you again for another informative video! ❤

  3. I've also bought a few garden items from IKEA, small tables of metal and wood and they are amazingly long lasting, I've left them outdoors for many years. My main concern with outdoor chairs is that they be sturdy for a guest who may be heavier, wood and metal are generally better for that I think. Great video Alexandra!

  4. This is very useful as I will be looking for garden furniture for my new house. I love your style of furniture Alexandra. The chairs in your sheltered part remind me of ones I saw in a French text book from my school days!😅

  5. I boought my wooden garden table ten years ago and it's going strong. I spray it with teak oil each year and the table looks pretty new still. For a cheapo table bought for about £60 that seats four, it's been terrific value and I love the look of it. With wood it is certainly, totally worth looking after it. This very much going for wooden decking each year too. Take off algae and use wood preserver each year without fail and it should last 20 years plus.

  6. Something to remember about concrete and stone is that they’re generally rather cold to sit on. Also hard. I love the look of stone benches but unless it’s one of the hottest days of the year I can’t enjoy sitting on them.

  7. What a timely viewing as it is still winter, but I am on the search in secondhand stores for garden furniture. I just love to view your videos, making my only regret not planting more trees, 20 years ago.💛

  8. That was a fun video. My grandkids have out grown the playarea in my garden and I will be replacing it with seating and a table. This was very helpful.

  9. Wonderful video. Just an FYI that the music was a lot louder then your voice, which isn't the best for headphone users.

  10. I was really enjoying that your channel did not add music. You don’t need it. You already have a winning formula for me.

  11. I have a very natural looking garden and have yet to find a table and chairs to blend into it, but you have given me some ideas. Thank you.

  12. I've had luck finding mid-century pieces that have been put out for trash. I took rusty 1950s spring chairs to a shop that sand-blasted and powder-coated them for $60 (US) each and have sanded and painted other pieces myself.

  13. For those of us who are aging, all furniture (including garden furniture) needs to have solid arms that can be used for pushing us out of the chair or sofa.

  14. Wonderful video – love the set your sitting on Alexandria, beautiful colour – thank you for making these videos, so informative ❤
