ad I came across an old parasol and had the idea to turn it into a whimsical living teepee — In celebration of National Picnic Month with dunelmuk

To bring it to life, I picked up these beautiful wicker planters from dunelmuk, tied twine from their handles to the frame, and planted variegated ivy to trail up the structure. I’m hoping over time it will grow into a full green canopy — the perfect little garden hideaway.

For the picnic tablescape (because it is National Picnic Month after all), I couldn’t resist these joyful strawberry ceramics also from dunelmuk.

Strawberry season is in full swing, but I personally think they serve all year round!

I’m loving how we’re moving away from the beige look and embracing more colour, print, and personality which dunelmuk is giving us — indoors and out. When I play with texture and pattern, it always feels a little more special, and creates those lovely talking points.

Let me know what you think of this ivy tent idea.

Love, Jack x

[Video description: a short video showing a tutorial on how to turn a wooden parasol frame into an ivy tent. He sets up the frame, places wicker planters around the base, and ties string from the handle to the frame. Ivy is wrapped around the string, trialing up to create a tent-like effect. At the base, he styles a tablescape with placemats, strawberry-shaped plates, teapot, mugs and other accessories. The video ends with the finished look, including an after-dark version lit up by lanterns and string lights.]
