      Hey everyone, I love spending afternoons sketching and painting in my garden, but my current setup is just a wobbly old chair and a tiny table that barely holds my watercolour palette. I want to create a proper cosy corner where I can sit for hours and work comfortably. Any tips on what kind of outdoor furniture would suit this?

      For painting outdoors you want a decent sized table with a smooth surface and a chair that supports your back properly, because hunching over a sketchbook on something flimsy will wreck your posture. Plenty of stylish garden furniture is out there that balances comfort with a nice look, you can browse a solid collection here https://rengard.co.uk . A small side table for your brushes and a cup of tea makes a world of difference too.

      Go for furniture with a matt or natural wood finish rather than glossy metal, because direct sunlight bouncing off shiny surfaces will mess with how you see colours on your canvas.
