Wooden garden furniture can add a touch of class and elegance to your home. You just have to make sure that you choose the right type of garden furniture. It should go well with the décor of your home, withstand the climatic conditions of your area, and meet your requirements.Here we discuss some tips for buying wooden furniture.Decide the Type of Wood You WantWooden garden furniture sets are available in different types of wood like teak, cedar, mahogany, eucalyptus, oak, pine, and bamboo. If you want something that can withstand rough weather conditions and last longer, you should choose teak. Teak furniture requires minimal maintenance and is resistant to moulds and termites. But, it is expensive. Eucalyptus is another good choice for outdoor furniture. It is sturdy and looks great in natural finish. Pine garden furniture is aesthetically beautiful, but can get damaged easily if kept in sun or rain for long. Cedar outdoor garden furniture is quite popular. It does not warp and split with aging. Moreover, it is resistant to insects. Whichever wood you choose, you should ensure that you cover your furniture when not in use. Paint it regularly to keep it looking new for years.Decide the Purpose Of Buying FurnitureIf you want furniture just for relaxing and spending some time with your family and friends in garden, you could think of a small table with a few chairs. If you intend to throw garden parties, you will need huge benches and tables that can comfortably accommodate your guests as well as food. For those who love reading and soaking in sun outdoors, a lounge chair or comfortable sofa is perfect.Measure the Space Available For FurnitureBefore you go shopping for your furniture, you should measure the space available for it. Avoid overcrowding your garden area with over-sized tables, armchairs, and swings. You should leave adequate space for people to move around. If you have limited space, you should choose space-saving furniture items like folding chairs.Decide What Style You WantIt is available in different styles like traditional and contemporary. You should choose a style that complements your garden area and also the décor of the rest of your home. For instance, for giving a wooded ambience to your garden, you should choose from teak furniture in traditional styles. But if you want to give trendy look to your garden area, you should choose from contemporary styles that are sleek and classy.Before you invest in outdoor garden furniture, you should properly assess your requirements. This will help you in selecting the right outdoor furniture. Apart from paying attention to style, size, and wood, you should also check how durable the furniture is and how much maintenance it would require.Nowadays, you can buy wooden garden furniture and patio furniture through online stores. Not only they offer good quality products at reasonable rates, but also have a wide range to suit different needs and tastes. Before placing your order, you should always check the shipping costs, delivery time, and return and exchange policy of the online dealer.

Family life can be chaotic. Sometimes we are trying to juggle so much that the idea of thriving never even enters our heads. The demands of life often don’t leave room for really enjoying yourself and the wonderful people with whom you are sharing your home.When all of this has passed and you look back on your family life in twenty years-time, what kind of memories do you really want to have? In order to build a bank of delicious and delightful memories for the future, now is the time to create them.Prioritize fun.In our patriarchal approach to life, motherhood has been a heavy load for many women in which we feel very burdened and responsible. If someone comes into the room in a playful mood while you are feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders, take a moment. Breathe deeply. Then give yourself permission to take a break from pressure even if it is only for one minute. Give space to fun in your day. Laughing and stepping out of the hum-drum are excellent way for bonding and improving the health and the well-being of your whole family (they also helps you to find solutions to your problems).Start loving yourself just the way you are.Most of us have been programmed to believe that we are not good enough in some way or another. This is false! See yourself with compassion and love. There is no other you and you are lovely.Bring wonder into your family life.When challenges arise, instead of worrying or being scared… begin to wonder. Start asking wondering questions like: ‘I wonder how this will be resolved?, I wonder what lovely surprises are just around the corner?’, or ‘I wonder how this will bring more joy into our lives?’. This has an immediate impact on your stress levels and also helps you to see solutions that might have not been apparent.Create a vision for your family.Know what kind of family life you do want. All of you can sit down and paint the picture of how you really want your home and family life to be focusing on the feelings (love, peace, happiness etc.). Make a list of things you want to do as a family. Make a vision board with pictures of what you want and hang it in a prominent place. Then set a goal and start taking steps towards it. Visit your vision regularly and add to it.Make a list of what is going well in your life.At the end of each day, feel grateful for what you love about your family life and for the many wonderful things that you have now. This is a lovely exercise to do with your partner and children and amplifies the feelings of love and harmony in your homeInstead of staying on the treadmill of pressure that has become normal in our patriarchal world, begin to connect with your feminine wisdom so that you can show up as the woman and mother you were born to be!
