Most of us who are lucky to have a spacious garden is a dilemma when it comes to decorating it. Unlike decorating a home a garden is a whole other beast. However, like making things in life there are some basics that you can follow along with your own instinct to make even the smallest garden look good. Here are 5 tips that can help you amp up your garden:

Embrace the elements.
There’s going to be rain, sun and wind. You can’t find them so you should learn to embrace it. When decorating choose items that can stand up to the elements. There are bluestone pavers for sale that can not only give a garden a finished look, but it can also withstand the forces of nature. However, there can be things that change with time such patina, moss and so on. Embrace these and use it as part of the design.

Do what you can maintain.
There is no point of getting professionals to design garden if you can’t maintain it. It’s better to have a simple garden that has one going out of control. Consider the time you have on your hands and the amount of energy that you’re willing to spend before trying to decorate. There are plants that don’t need much maintenance but give amazing results. However, do pay attention to your garden at least once a month. A little bit of love and care can go a long way.

Flowers are your friends.
Flowers have caught the attention of humans from the very beginning. These are pretty, they smell good and they are nature’s gift. Although it may sound obvious flowers can make anything beautiful. However, make note of the cycle of the plant. Have plants with different life cycles so you won’t have a bunch of dead plants all at once in your garden. Choose local flowers as they can easily survive the environment and are cheap and easy to maintain.

Garden lights can make things magical.
Once the sun goes down and the plants and flowers can no longer be seen garden lights can add a whole new dimension to your garden. A light that is hanging from trees, hidden in bushes can add a romantic and magical feel to any garden.

Add interesting things.
Apart from nature’s bounty add a few man-made items in your garden to add some variety. Granite as accents, old china as flower pots, garden ornaments and furniture can add something special.These are merely guidelines and you can be as creative as you like to make your living space more appealing.
