Terri Ramsey Beavers We are already in mid January and people are planning for the summer. That means they are looking at garden furniture, fixtures and fittings that they can put into their back gardens to enhance the space.
There are also a lot of people who are going to be getting a lot of use out of their gardens as soon as the sun comes back, which means that you need to look at the costs of lawn care and shrubbery care and more. The good news is that there are various ways that somebody can upgrade their backyards even if they are on a budget. Upgrading your garden doesn’t have to take too much money out of your wallet, so let’s take a look at some tips to help.
- Bring out the paintbrush. Painting your home is usually reserved for the front and the sides, especially as it tends to add curb appeal. Painting the exterior of your home can give it a refreshing makeover and it doesn’t have to be too expensive. Some people prefer that outside of their house to look clean and fresh, but with the onslaught of the weather it is not always possible. a lick of paint always adds to home, so choose a colour that would suit.
- Add some boulders. A great way to add some dimension to your backyard is to add boulders around the perimeter. It can make the space much more interesting for people, and you can position them either on their own or in small clusters which will make for a much nicer look and improve the surroundings.
- Instal some climbing plants. If you don’t have much ground space in your garden you can still have a green and flowery area. Installing a trellis allows you to have some climbing plants along the fences on the outside of the house. You can even walk out the entrances of vegetable gardens, fruit areas and even some sitting areas. Trellis is very versatile, but it also still allows light and space and flow in your garden.
- Upgrade your garden furniture. If you want to upgrade your garden and make it look good, having the right furniture, giant beanbags and table areas in the space will help. Adding more furniture or upgrading your current furniture will change the look of the area and make the whole place stand out to look beautiful. Add some twinkly lights and you are good to go for the summer.
- Plant new flowers. You need to make sure that you have some long lasting plants, and for that to happen you need to ensure that you plant perennials. It is absolutely the right way to go, but having said that, it’s vital that you remember that perennials will still need some outside assistance from you so that they can do their best.
Upgrading the garden ready for the summer is a great way to spend your time while you wait. Summer is coming, Are you ready?
