When the sun starts shining and the warmer weather appears, it’s great to get out in the garden and spruce it up after the winter months. I only have a small courtyard garden but like to make the most of it, after all, it gets the sun and the kids love eating out there in the summer months. Home Bargains have a vast range of bits and pieces for the garden from decorative items, things to grow and more useful, practical items.
We received a selection to try out and coudn’t wait for a dry day to get outside. The green, stacking chair cover (£1.99) was perfect for me. We have a stack of four chairs that live permanently outside and look a little more weathered each year. I also get fed up of having to wipe them down everytime we go outside. This cover fitted perfectly over them and keeps them nice and protected from the elements in this strong cover.
My children love helping me to plant seeds so the Seed Starter Kit in Orange & Peach was set up straight away and within a few days we had little seedlings. We also had a basket liner (99p) which we will use when our seeds get a little bigger to hopefully create some hanging basket displays. We are looking forward to a lovely display of Marigold and Nasturtium flowers over the summer.
The children decided to put the Frog ornament (49p) in their tray of sunflower seeds that they are growing. They also couldn’t wait to have a dig with the yellow fork (89p) and even wore the green gloves (49p) to help plant some seeds from the 6 in 1 seed pack (79p) in seed trays. Fingers crossed we may get a crop of vegetables later in the year and the garden netting will prove useful in protecting them from nasty pests (99p). The thermometer (69p) is great to hang on a wall outside, or in a greenhouse so you no how hot (or not) it is.
For a bit of outdoor decor, this green solar lantern (£1.99) can easily be hung up anywhere, and the pretty green leaf fairy lights (£1.59) look great draped across a tree in the early evening. Also this gold coloured butterfly (79p) makes a pretty addition hanging down from a small tree that we have and twirls around in the breeze.
Our garden has certainly been brightened up and tidied up with these useful gardening bits from Home Bargains and at some amazing prices!! Why not check out Home Bargains and see how you can improve your garden?
All reviews are my own opinions and I received the products in order to write the review.
I love the butterfly. I know what you mean about the chairs, our are left out each Winter and I am always wiping them off to be able to sit on them.
Such a great find and bargain!

I wouldn’t have thought of Home Bargains for garden items but it looks like they have some great bits. I will have to have a look as we are doing ours up at the moment!
