Wimbledon is underway, and for those who haven’t got a ticket to sit courtside, you do not have to miss out on strawberries and cream or Pimms.
In fact, numerous tennis fans are throwing their own Wimbledon party.
A Wimbledon party could be indoors or al fresco, but the key to acing the screening event is themed homeware.
Now we don’t necessarily mean faces on cakes and bunting, though it wouldn’t be out of place. But strawberry printed cushions or crockery, tennis printed decor, as well as citrus-coloured accessories.
Yes, a projector is a worthy investment to showcase the matches on, but it’s the finishing touches that are the real pièce de résistance.
We have whittled down the best homeware essentials for your lowkey Wimbledon Championship viewing party, or the doubles extravaganza bash.
