SPRING IS HERE! MAKE SURE THE GRASS IS MOWED, RAKED AND FREE OF DEBRIS, TOOLS AND TOYS. SET THE TABLE AND INVITE AS MANY FRIENDS AS YOU CAN MUSTER. SPRING IS A TIME FOR CELEBRATING AND DECORATING YOUR OUTDOOR AREAS

Entertaining OUTDOORS

EDITED BY LINDA DELANEY

For the perfect garden party, decorate your dinner table with cuttings from the garden. Fresh flowers and greenery will add a pop of colour and natural fragrance. Ensure there’s plenty of seating for your guests. If you’re short on chairs, spread out blankets on the grass. Choose music that will be entertaining

and pleasant — not too loud or overwhelming. And set out a couple of yard games, such as croquet and bocce. Finally, relax and allow your guests to do the same.
