Get the garden heatwave ready by snapping up trendy furniture for less. After a gloomy start to June, Scotland's weather has been looking up recently. For those who love the sunshine, and getting to spend time outdoors, it's set to get even hotter. Weather forecasters have predicted that the UK is about to experience its first heatwave of the year this week, with certain parts of the country set to break the 30C barrier over the weekend. Ahead of the upcoming sweltering conditions, quite a few of us might be planning to get some well-deserved time in the garden, whether that be with a barbecue, a garden party, or just some relaxation.

Dunelm shoppers love 'stylish' plug-in wall light that doesn't need an electrician
The fixture is ideal for those who don't want to pay out for an electrician to install a wall light - and shoppers are impressed Dunelm customers are raving about a chic wall lamp that's reportedly a breeze to install. The Churchgate Harby Plug In Wall Light is winning over many shoppers with its simple installation process, thanks to its plug-in cord that eliminates the need for complex wiring by an electrician. Usually retailing at £40 per light, the store currently has a sale on, reducing the price to just £32. The lights boast an appealing white ceramic glazed head and are finished in antique gold metal. For those concerned about unsightly wires, the lamp comes with a stylish white twisted cable that looks far more attractive than your average wire. But Dunelm isn't the only retailer offering this type of plug-in light. Lighting Direct's Twiga Wall Light, available in black for those who favour a darker interior style, is slightly cheaper at £30.99. It also comes with a three-year guarantee for added reassurance. Meanwhile, those who detest visible wires might have better luck with retail behemoth Amazon, which sells battery-operated wall lights, reports the Mirror. The Rechargeable Wireless Wall Sconce Set of 2 costs £49.99 and while they do require recharging, Amazon claims the battery will typically last for 40 hours on low brightness and 18 hours on maximum. Conveniently, this set includes two E27 rechargeable bulbs as well, saving you additional expense. One Dunelm light buyer enthused: "Amazing quality and really adds a premium feel to the bedside. Added these to a room refresh for a beachy look and feel and the quality is great. We've had lovely comments already and love the look."

Another chimed in with praise, stating: "Looks lovely, good quality and easy to install. Would recommend." A third was equally impressed, saying: "These look lovely in the picture but they are even more beautiful in real life! Easy to install." Nonetheless, despite the rave reviews and a high 4.7-star average from 148 reviews, a few buyers noted minor issues. One buyer remarked: "Really nice lamps but was disappointed when it came with silver coloured screws, especially as they are on the wall plate and are seen. Otherwise I like the lamps. I think they are more of a cream than a white." It's not just lighting fixtures that Dunelm has reduced in its sale, as there is plenty on offer for anyone wanting to give their home a fresh look without breaking the bank. One way of doing this without a major investment is by getting some fresh bedding and the retailer has certainly got that area covered. For instance, Dunelm shoppers are loving this floral bedding that features vibrant patterns with bold colours. For something brighter, this "cheerful" gingham pattern may not be on sale, but shoppers are still snapping it up in multiple colours. Art lovers may want to consider this interesting wall art available for £36.
