3 Ways To Style Your Mosaic Bistro Table and Chairs This Spring
Spring is here and with the change in weather, many of us will soon be back in our gardens and enjoying the outside. Here at Mosaic Tables, we are experts in designing outside furniture sets that will not last you a long time, but will also make your garden all the more inviting. In this article, we will be looking at three trendy ways to style your mosaic bistro table and chairs.
What Is The Best Material For a Bistro Set?
Before exploring our favourite ways to style a mosaic bistro table and chairs this spring, it’s important to look at what the best material is for an outside piece of furniture like this. Garden furniture has to be able to withstand all of the great British weather and will most likely be outside all year round. Material becomes extremely important considering the longevity of your bistro set. You will also need to consider other factors such as durability, maintenance needs, as well as aesthetic appeal.
Wood Bistro Sets
Firstly, let’s look at wood. Whilst renowned for its timeless charm, demand regular maintenance. They are much more likely to rot and will often need protective treatment applied to it every six to nine months. Some people also will go one step further and, to prevent weather-related issues, use a waterproof cover in the wetter months.
Steel & Aluminium Bistro Sets
Much sturdier than wood, you will also find bistro tables made from steel and aluminium. These are great when it comes to general wear and tear, because they are typically resistant to scratches and dents. However, when left outside for long periods of time, you may see your steel or aluminium table change colour and fade over time.
Rattan Bistro Sets
One of the most popular choices of bistro sets over the years has been made from rattan. These combine style and portability, as they are often foldable and can be moved around your outdoor space. Whilst these appear stylish, they can be extremely susceptible to rot as natural rattan can’t stand being exposed to moisture. As a necessary measure, it is recommended to cover your rattan bistro sets in water-proof sheets. Saying this, poly rattan is a synthetic alternative which tends to be more waterproof.
Wrought Iron Bistro Sets
Finally, we have hard wrought iron tables and chairs. Renowned for its sturdiness, wrought iron bistro sets offer unmatched stability, reducing the risk of toppling in strong winds. Wrought iron can resist rust for a long period, but to prevent any future damage, we would recommend using a protective coating to preserve longevity.
Here at Mosaic Tables, we offer a variety of different wrought iron bases, which will support a mosaic table top. Firstly, we have our Beldia Base, which is a tubular steel welded base. As one of our most cost efficient bases, this offers a simple yet elegant solution to your bistro table needs. As well as our Beldia base, we also have our Bouquet option, which is made from wrought steel and has more decorative details. This option is also a lot heavier and is perfectly suited to a garden all year round.
Our Andalucia bases are another option. These have a heavy solid-section bar design and are ideal for larger, more rectangular tables. Finally, we have our folding page, specifically made for round tables. If none of these suit what you are looking for, we also have bespoke bases, which can be made according to your exact needs.
How To Style Your Mosaic Bistro Table and Chairs
How you style your mosaic bistro tables and chairs is a matter of taste and style, but like everything, there are always new trends which you can experiment with in your garden. Mosaic garden sets are always fashionable pieces to have in your outdoor space, as they are hard wearing and will last for a number of years. But, how do you style them?
1. Mosaic Garden Tables & Modern Minimalism
One of the top ways people are styling their mosaic garden tables is by following the saying ‘less is more’. Minimalism is a trend we have been seeing in the home now for many years and now it has spread to the garden too. To achieve that much sought-after sophisticated and modern look in your garden this summer, why not opt for sleek and streamlined chairs paired with your mosaic table? Take our Stone Mosaic Tables for example. They offer an array of beautifully neutral colours which will allow which a variety of chairs will suit. You can also add a further touch of elegance through adding matte black or stainless steel culturally when hosting guests.
2. Bistro Verde & Natural Elegance
Summer and spring is all about embracing the beauty of nature, and what better way to enjoy this season than sitting outside? You can take this one step further by styling your mosaic bistro set with earthy tones and organic elements. Both our Stone Mosaic Tables and our Terracotta Mosaic Tables create the perfect backdrop for more natural materials. Pair your mosaic table with woven placemats, wooden serving trays or ceramic dishes to enhance that natural and rustic charm. You could even add a touch of greenery with potted herbs or succulents placed on the table.
3. Colourful Accents & Mosaic Garden Tables
Moving away from the neutral colour choices, you can also pair your mosaic bistro table and chairs with colourful accessories. Think bright chairs, colourful cushions and contemporary chairs which compliment the natural hues of your mosaic pattern. You can also opt for a tablecloth or table runner in a coordinating colour to tie the look together.
