Tucked in a garden is this cozy little hideaway that provides great shade for reading a book. String some inexpensive fairy lights to provide some ambiance and an oval bevelled glass mirror adds some sparkle and depth. Complete the look with some outdoor toss pillows, maybe a seat cushion for extra comfort and a throw to keep you warm on a cool day. You could design the top of the seat to open and store pillows when not in use.
