With our hot weather going into hibernation for the next few months, you have an exciting opportunity to rejuvenate your garden and outdoor area to blow your friends away in the seasons that follow. A spring clean is always a great place to start, making room for new projects and creating more space than you had with cluttered, unused items all over the place. Standard renovations like painting the shed or colour-blocking the fence will always add a bit of flavour to your area. However, in this article, we are going to look at some unique ideas to create fresh and funky uses for your outdoor space.
Construct a Cooking Corner
Every family and group of friends enjoy a drink on a nice night while waiting for a delectable feast cooking away on the barbecue. Consider adding a twist, with your own built-in brick BBQ. This feature will look professional and blends into the surroundings much better than any expensive store-bought barbecue. Surprisingly, they are relatively easy to construct, with about a dozen necessary components and requiring no more than an afternoon to build it. Follow these easy tips to get your new outdoor barbecue standing in time for summer.
Add a Spa Pool
Adding a Spa Pool is an easy and increasingly affordable way to add a slice of luxury to your backyard, not to mention doubling as a cosy place to catch up with your crew in the colder months. Perfect for either an episode of solitude and serenity or a space to reconnect with someone special. Spa pools nowadays also offer incredible hydrotherapy benefits to help sore muscles and joints recover after strenuous exercise or stiffness from staring into screens all day.
Create a Quiet Corner
If you have an unused or secluded corner in your outdoor area, consider adding a piece of furniture to turn it into a personal space for tranquillity and you-time. You might go for a standard outdoor furniture set or something slightly more stylish like a pagoda to add some life to your new space of serenity. With a taller structure like this, you can find certain plants and foliage that will grow over the top of your arrangement to offer a fully immersive space.
Add an Outdoor Mirror
Find the most dull and depressing corner in your garden or outdoor area and find a weatherproof mirror that will fit nicely in that space. This will create intrigue in areas that previously offered nothing of note and if placed correctly can offer the illusion of increased space. You can also use your mirror to reflect sunlight into areas that previously remained in the shadows.
Enjoy some Autumnal Action in the Garden
Autumn is an excellent season for the garden, with crisp air and enough warmth remaining to get some new vegetables growing. It’s also the perfect season to show your lawn some love, you might even go as far as sowing a new one. Autumn is also the best time to plant bulbs for Spring flowering, as well as offering the right conditions for pansies, violas, and polyanthus. Make sure you’re grazing on fresh produce in the coming seasons by planting vegetables that thrive in Autumn, such as; broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, beetroot, spinach.
