AD | Sometimes, I wish Iād chosen slightly lower-maintenance materials for our garden.
Thereās always something to do out there! But then again, itās nice having natural materials in the garden, and it becomes more about finding the right products to help make those maintenance jobs easy⦠like cleaning your deck.
I cleaned our clay pavers a few weeks ago but hadnāt got around to the deck until last weekend. If youāve followed me for a while, youāll know I use a lot of @osmo_uk products, so I thought Iād give their āWood Reviver Power Gelā a go.
After all the prep (moving everything out of the way and brushing it off), it was literally a 20ā30 min job to apply the reviver gel. It comes with the brush tooāyou just need to attach a pole and away you go. No bending down or getting on all fours. By the way, this is just another reason why having the flat side up on your deck is bestāI think it looks better, but itās also waaaaay easier to clean.
Then leave it to sit for 20 mins and rinse it off and, miraculously, our deck looks incredible. All the green is gone, and the colour variation is pretty non-existent. Now all I need to do is choose an oil colour to treat the bare wood, protect it, nourish it, and help it last longer.
Iāve just sampled the Osmo Decking Oil in Teak 007 and Bangkirai 006 āboth look great and are very close to the original colour of the wood.
Oh, and Iāve left just enough Osmo Deck Reviver to clean off our bench seat on the patio too, so thatās the next job alongside the oiling.
What jobs have you been doing in your garden? Donāt go telling me yours is low maintenance!!!

Ad | I wanted to create a DIY garden coffee table using some old crates.
After giving them a good clean and a scuff sand, I got started with @osmo_uk Country Shades in Cypress Swamp to add a bit of colour.
Once dry, I nailed the crates together to form the base⦠but at this point, I really thought Iād got it wrong. It just wasnāt how Iād imagined.
Thankfully, my husband convinced me to keep going.
I added a more solid top using old scaffold boards, finished in @osmo_uk Country Shades in Purity for contrast, and finished it off with turned feet.
I honestly canāt believe the difference the top and legs made!
Now weāre ready for alfresco dining⦠just waiting on the sunshine āļø
We lost an hour of sleep⦠and suddenly everyoneās a bit confused š“
But letās break it down the Osmo way:
-1 Hour sleep + 1 hour sunshine = More time for Osmo!
According to BODMAS⦠this is probably wrong.
The sunshine... questionable.
According to us⦠itās the perfect excuse to get outside.
Less sleep, more sunshine, more Osmo š¤

AD - Lets add some decorative pattern to this wooden planter but this time, not with paint! Iāve used @osmo_uk Wood Wax Finish in Cognac. The planter itself is a work of art as itās carved from one piece of wood, so I was really reluctant to paint it but wanted to add some interest. By using wood oil, the natural wood grain can still show through, further enhancing it. Once finished, I used some clear oil from @osmo_uk to seal it. I was slightly nervous as to whether this project would go to plan but I have to say, Iām really proud of the end result and canāt wait to try it on other things like shelves and picture frames. Let me know what you think. š„°
