CHRISTMAS Christmas is the ideal time to take advantage of southeast Queensland’s warm summer weather, and many families will celebrate with an alfresco-style lunch. Here are some tips to help you prepare your outdoor space for the busy festive period.

SET THE TONE Hang outdoor Christmas lights and decorations in the surrounding garden and space to create a pretty and festive environment for you and your guests. Or, try scattering decorative lanterns around areas of the garden or deck and patio areas that will benefit from some additional light. TIP – for a quick and easy DIY project, line glass jars with inexpensive batteryoperated wire string lights.

PRODUCT ALERT Decorative screens, such as this one pictured from Protector Aluminium, can dress up a plain fence, or be used to elegantly screen off an entertainment area.
