Amidst my backyard renovation, which resembles a muddy pit, I've been browsing through countless Pinterest boards filled with lush garden ideas that transport you to a serene getaway.
Nothing has captivated me quite like Jake Arnold's latest outdoor collection with Crate & Barrel. This collection is a comprehensive source for the finest outdoor furnishings and accessories that will help me create my dream garden.
With a design aesthetic rooted in British style and influenced by L.A. vibes, Jake combines the allure of English gardens with the opulence of Hollywood, resulting in delicate, curvy furniture, luxurious outdoor fabrics suitable for indoor use, and an array of must-have decor items. Here's what's on my shopping list.
If you've attempted a patio update, you know how quickly costs can add up. Jake, who has worked with stars like Katy Perry and John Legend, understands that unique, inspiring pieces often come from bespoke designs. Thankfully, he's made that accessible through this collection.
This isn't Jake's first collaboration with the brand; however, it marks his outdoor debut, showcasing his distinctive style effectively.
With options for entertainers and sunseekers alike, the teak lattice-style Hartford Sofa and its matching Lounge Chair offer a stylish yet durable seating arrangement for gatherings. Meanwhile, the Harpen Metal Bistro Set and Chaise Lounge evoke the romance of a European garden. The standout piece is the innovative Cobden Outdoor Umbrella, featuring a cabana-style wicker side table built into its base.
Accessories were thoughtfully included, too. Here are my top 9 selections from this captivating collection.
