Update your garden for spring with Living It Up

Tuesday, 1 February 2011 2:34 PM

The new sturdy and stylish Textilene range from Living It Up can help you makeover your garden in time for springtime sun - or showers.

Living It Up specialise in contemporary garden furniture, giving your garden a touch of chic with sculptural yet practical designs.

Textilene is a durable yet attractive material, ideal for all weathers that make up the British summer. It's made from PVC-coated, woven polyester non-stretch yarn, so it won't damage or fade in April showers.

One item in the new range is the Textilene California Carver Chair, made from Textilene wrapped around an aluminium frame. Great for entertaining, or simply enjoying your garden with a tall drink, the Carver Chair makes a real focus piece in your outdoor space, priced at £299.

The modern California Dreaming dining range, also made in Textilene, is ideal to be used as outdoor furniture. It is resistant to rain, UV rays and frost.

The table comes with the glass top and all chairs come with the black base cushions. The table is available in four, six or eight seater versions, perfect for larger families. The eight person set costs £1,599.
