With the summer in full swing and a heatwave strengthening day by day, we know that you are going to be spending as much time as possible in your garden so here is 5 easy and quick ways to spice up your garden to make it an even nicer place to hang around in !
Outdoor mirrors create the illusion of more space and allow light to bounce around the area. They can also be fundamental in defining the style that you are striving for, whether that be modern, antique or contemporary.
Outdoor lighting is an easy way to set a calming tone in your garden as well as allowing you to spend as much time in there as possible. To create a relaxing ambience use soft lights and decorate around the edge of your garden or hang around trees. Going solar means that the lights can charge up throughout the day in the hot sun and then offer hours worth of lighting during the evening.
3) Plant Pots
We are huge advocates of as many flowers and plant pots as possible. Not only can the actual plant pot improve a garden by helping to create character and style, but the flowers that are in them too by filling your space with colour and charm. For a bright and beautiful garden, plant pots are KEY.
Bird feeders and bird baths are a great way to persuade the natural world into your space. Not only do they help combat bugs and bring calming and beautiful tones with them, they actually help the environment. By having a bird feeder or bath, you allow adult birds to easier care for and protect their offspring by giving them a consistent place to nest and feed.
5) Wind Chimes
Wind chimes have a relaxing and calming effect on any garden from the tones they emit with the wind. They produce soothing, melodic, slow tones throughout the breezy day which bring peace to your environment while pulling attention away from unpleasant sounds in your surroundings.
