CAIRO WEST MAGAZINE HOME AND GARDEN
Shade Lovers
If swinging is your thing , a hammock is a garden ‘ must ’, the best we found was at Kian . Supported by a sturdy wooden frame , it can be placed in the perfect shady spot , and can easily be moved around to your heart ’ s content . For garden umbrellas you really don ’ t need to look much further than Tagoury ’ s House , they have a huge range in all sizes , shapes and colors . Daghash is also worth a visit , not only for umbrellas , but also their large variety of tents and pergolas , just what is needed for some vital shade when you throw a garden party to remember .

Top Tip
Strapped for cash ? A great way to re-invent your garden seating is as easy as a quick coat of paint or wood stain , and a few meters of fabulous fabric from the Print Shop . Cover drab or tired seat cushions with some of their up-tothe minute designs , and if you are brave enough , mix and match as well . Fabric starts from EGP 40 a meter , it is amazing how quickly and inexpensively you can turn your old tat into a design delight .
Beanbags
For beanbags we think that Ticas is hard to beat , they have bright , practical bags in a selection of styles and sizes that would stand up to all the rough and tumble your kids can throw at them . A handy hint , they have some rather nice monogrammed towels and robes as well , perfect for an afternoon ’ s poolside relaxation .
