How can you use your garden creatively? By involving your garden in their lives and realizing in the garden the creative sides that you most want to promote. Your garden is highly creative, it does whatever you want it to do:
If you want to do very little work in your garden and simply use it more, you could look into designing a low-maintenance garden.
If you also want to use your garden as an extension of your home in the evening hours (working people, after all, can enjoy their garden mainly after work, so a large percentage of it is in the dark), it comes down to installing the right light in the garden. There are a wide variety of different garden lights and solar lights to help you with this task.
If you enjoy decorating your surroundings, you could incorporate your garden into that design. There are many garden elements that you can use for decoration and design, from an Aztec stove for a special fireside treat to a homemade pedestal that will show off an unusual plant. You can transform your garden into a southern-style oasis by bringing in terracotta as pots, tubs, or tiles, or browse the wide range of garden pottery for Mediterranean and summer gardens. You can also plant old zinc tubs or build your flower stands or flower stairs.
If you like to be artistic, your garden will give you plenty of opportunities: you could make your garden art out of wood, stone, or metal. There are even DIY ideas for turning some of your trash into sculptures or building impressive nanas out of paper-mâché (nanas are famous sculptures by French artist Niki de Saint Phalle). However, you could also learn to make your ironwork or assemble cubist bodies out of Ytong, which you then finish with a file, and other examples abound.
If you like to attract a lot of animals to your garden to observe their behavior in leisure hours, you could build a birdbath or create a (mini) pond, make an insect hotel and maybe add some artistic design or build a hedgehog house.
You could also make creative use of your garden by incorporating what your garden produces in imaginative ways. In this way, the garden brings you real benefits when you find the ingredients you need to decorate your home in the garden. You can put together the most beautiful floral decorations for the living room, tie your Advent wreath and make your autumnal door wreath. Even the table decorations, of course, come from the garden, and in the entrance area, a beautifully designed planter welcomes visitors. Among these numerous ideas, you will also find ways to charm the corners of the garden, which until now have been a little “a thorn in your side”.
You will find below ideas, suggestions, and instructions around the most diverse creative ideas that you could realize in your garden.
Garden walls made of rustic bricks have a very special charm. But not every garden owner is blessed with such a property boundary. Gray, clunky concrete walls diminish the look and give a drab appearance. Ideally, the gardener would like to hide the brickwork. Not a bad idea at all. Because, to disguise a dreary…
Homemade and labeled signs not only keep your herb garden tidy but also your cooking pot. You can name all the herbs accurately and are not limited to store-bought plant signs with common names. For example, if you have planted different varieties of mint, thyme, or sage, you can easily identify them using your accurately…
