Homestyle Magazine - August 2019

In this issue

I’m ever hopeful that the amazing weather we had last summer will make a comeback, and while we wait for that to happen there’s still time to style up your garden space to make the most of it when it does arrive! With this in mind we have dedicated this issue to all things outdoors, from the top style trends for your garden on page 75, to how to create your own sanctuary on page 94. Whether it’s for relaxing, getting creative or working from home, we have all the inspiration for fashioning your own ‘she shed’. There’s also a truly dreamy garden makeover on page 106. Helen’s turned her space into an extension of her home with a chillout area, fun bar and seating zone which looks good all year round. Elsewhere we have more great real reader houses. Covergirl Hanna’s home on page 14 will appeal if you have a love of art and prints and a penchant for pink, while Hope’s renovation of her 1930s probate property is remarkable. See page 38. In food this month, we have barbecue bites on page 118 that will liven up your next gathering and in celebration of Afternoon Tea Week there’s three tasty treats on page 120 that will please any sweet-toothed visitor!
