It’s too hot to garden and I’m the heat is turning my endless summer sky blue hydrangas a deep auburn. They are pretty but not the summer blue I crave this time of year. I want constant color in my garden but short of buying plastic plants, I have to let nature take it course and deal with the aubergine shades all over my garden.  My solution: bright patio accessories!

Here are some of my favorites

I love this bird cage from Conran. So unexpectd and possibly by now also sold out.

Surprise! Would you ever think this was from Pier 1? Me neither.

Design Within Reach cart, so sharp and chic.

This crazy chaise is fun and even if its is somewhat impractical, its from Ikea and not going to break the bank.

This fushcia garden stool from Mecox Gardens is better than any flowering plant, it never fades and no water needed.
