Ideas on how to style your parasol
We love to see all the wonderful ways our parasols can be styled. There is no 'correct' way to style a parasol, they're joyful and colourful and everything looks fabulous with them. Whether you want to create a show stopping scene inside your living room or next to your pool, there are an endless array of possibilities.
We love seeing your photos!

Tablescaping for any occasion

Tablescaping queen Rosanna Falconer has the ability to create to magical perfection. From matchamilsm to maximalism, we love her more-is-more aesthetic. Check out her Instagram to see her picturesque tablescaping scenes. Just look at the creative and decorative way she styles our Stevie Round Bamboo Parasol with her pink dress, tableware and flowers!

Layered Picnic

Picture this: it's a warm sunny day, you're in the park with your friends. Your favourite summer cocktail is flowing, and you are reclining under an East London Parasol. This is exactly the image that we paint in our mind when we imagine what we will be doing once the weather warms up! As you can see above, our Whitney Round Bamboo Parasol is a fantastic centre-piece for your day. Firstly, you'll need a parasol, layer up on the cushions (more are better) and napkins to brighten up the party. And, lastly, roll out a thick blanket accompanied by a load of tasty treats.
Two is better than one

Al Fresco Dining

"Al fresco” is Italian and literally translated means "in the fresh air". We can see no downsides to a summer spent al fresco; basking in the warmth of the summer fresh air with loved ones and friends. For the ultimate all day parasol our Octagonal Parasols are superb at providing shade for your table while you chat the day away. We're taking inspo from @gustaviandeisgn's scenic set ups with the sophisticated Liberace Octagonal Parasol.
We love how this pair of Pink Arethas have been decorated with bunting- with the Queen's birthday approaching it's giving us some ideas for a regal celebration. This long table would be a dream for a long lunch to match. Let's hope the sunshine comes back and we have an Indian summer to celebrate being together again.

Parasols indoors...

The British weather has a tendency to rain on days that we have made plans. Have no fear, @deborahgibsondesign
shows our parasols look just as elegant indoors as they do outside.

A true show stopper is the Gloria Round Bamboo Parasol, we love how they've styled this in a glasshouse with directors chairs. The leopards and vines are gorgeous together.

Sun lounging bliss
The pinnacle of luxury must be a beautiful parasol with sun loungers next to a glistening pool or a communal area on a sunny day. We suggest making a splash with one of our Octagonal Parasols. Look at how @pimentohillhouse has created a truly tasteful, tropical idyll with our Green Aretha Octagonal Parasol.
