I can imagine taking this picnic basket to the races, say Newmarket races, and on one of the days when they have the Newmarket Nights offer, an irresistible cocktail of adrenaline-filled racing action, a flutter on the horses, a glass of iced cold beer, Champagne or Pimms and an open air concert by a well known band or artist.

Taking place at the Newmarket picturesque July Course with its rustic charm, romantic surrounding and English Garden party atmosphere, Newmarket Nights are a summer event not to be missed and must for a great night out with friends, family, clients or colleagues.

Or you could have a much more private affair by taking this picnic hamper basket to Epping Forest, Hatfield Forest, or even Hyde Park. Large enough to pack all your essential items of food and drink, why not  just lay back and enjoy the company of your party, the sun and the beautfiul summer weather.

Imagine sitting in this woven hanging chair at the bottom of your garden on a summer’s day with a glass of wine reading a good book with not a care in the world. It offers you the chance to setup a beautiful woven hanging chair and create a nice place where you can retreat in to your garden,  or even your conservatory.

Hanging woven chair

I don’t know about you but I could picture myself really relaxing out with a nice cold glass of Rose, while sitting at the bottom of my garden listening to the trickling of the stream and the wind in the trees above.

This unusual hanging chair combines both contemporary and retro style. It has been woven from textural, multi-toned fibres this piece will make a stunning design statement. Use indoors hung from the ceiling or outside from a strong branch or sturdy frame for a stylish alternative to your normal seating. The padded cushion is included but the fixings to attach to ceiling or frame are not, you will be able to purchase them from any hardware shop.
