Spring is finally here and now is a good time to start planning how you can improve your garden so you can enjoy it in the summer. No matter how big or small your garden is there are many different things you can do to help improve it. If you want your garden to be the perfect setting for a garden party in the summer, would like a bigger and better BBQ or want to grow your own vegetables for your family to enjoy there are a number of solutions that are available. .
Above Ground Swimming Pools
Installing a swimming pool in your garden can be a very expensive and time-consuming job. An option that is less expensive and quicker to install is above ground pools. Above ground pools come in a variety of styles and materials giving you the option of wooden, metal or soft sided pools. This means you can have a small octagonal splash pool or a stretched octagon shaped pool depending on how you wish to use it.
Adding Sculpture And Paving
Laying paving is a great way to create some interesting effects in your garden and if you combine this with some garden sculpture then they can be truly magnificent. Installing permeable paving is a great way to solve any problems you have with water drainage as it allows water to drain naturally into the ground. The different choices of materials and colours that are available with permeable paving make it one of the best types of paving to combine with a garden sculpture. There is a wide range of different garden sculptures that you can choose from. Many people typically expect garden sculptures to be made of stone but you will find a variety of different materials such as metal and wood so you can have a unique sculpture.
Building A Better BBQ
Many people buy a new BBQ everytime their old one breaks or rusts away. However, if you have the space in the garden and some general brick laying skills then you can easily build a permanent BBQ for your garden. You can create a BBQ your friends will be jealous of in a few days, with minor building skills and relatively cheap materials. There are plenty of examples online of what can be achieved easily and you don’t need to have an extravagant design to achieve great effects.
Save Money And Get Healthy By Growing Your Own
You don’t need an allotment or a huge amount of space in your back garden in order to begin growing your own vegetables. There are a number of ways you can grow vegetables in your garden without using a lot of space. Perhaps one of the easiest ways of doing this is by using raised garden beds as they can be made to fit. A good raised garden bed is deep and full of high quality top soil that many of us simply don’t have in our garden leading to a better yield of crops. It is fairly simple to build a raised garden bed from a few peices of wood but you will also find that there are various self assembly kits available.
