Now it’s summer (and especially with this crazy heatwave), all of us have been spending more time sunning ourselves outside in the garden, so it’s important to ensure it’s a relaxing environment to sit in. But once you’ve got your outdoor furniture set sorted, created an ambient lighting scheme and sorted out some storage for your stuff, what else can you do to add that finishing touch? Answer: put up a garden mirror.
Not only will these mirrors give a little bit of interest to your wall, they’ll help bounce light around your garden and reflect back any greenery or flowers you’ve grown. Plus, like inside your home, adding a mirror to a small space outside also has the effect of making it feel bigger, too – which is handy if your home’s external area isn’t especially large.
So, from little window-style mirrors to full-height gothic options, we’ve rounded up 13 of our favourite garden mirrors for summer 2020 below.
