Garden Ideas And Design Inspirations
Tile plant pots
Give up plastic containers and make your original plant pots using large paving slabs.
Raised beds
Create a vegetable garden by making raised raised beds. This will not only simplify the care of crops but will also become the highlight of the site.
Box with gardening tools
Store small tools (garden hoes, Hand Trowel, etc.) in a special box. This will make it easier for you to find the equipment you need. And if you take care of the appearance of the box, it will become a real decorative element.
Cascading clay fountains
Anyone can make a cascading fountain from an old clay pot. It will add a special charm to the garden. In addition, the sound of flowing water has a calming effect.
Clay labels with imprinted inscription
There’s something about labeling crops in your garden beds or pots. This can be done not only using ordinary board signs with labels but also in a more original way. For example, using clay labels with an imprinted inscription. Yes, you will have to tinker with their production, but such a garden (flower bed, box with seedlings) will look much more interesting.
Garden trellises
Help climbing plants by building garden trellises for them. You can place them on the outer walls of the house, allowing the bindweeds to do vertical gardening on their own. It won’t take long before you have a lush green living wall.
Garden bench-flower bed
Garden benches are not only a place to relax. Any bench can also be adapted for growing ornamental plants. You can cut special holes in it for containers or install the flower pots directly on the surface of the structure. However, in the second case, it is worth remembering that strong gusts of wind can knock over the pots.
Flowerbed with hose storage
It’s not so easy to come up with a place to store a hose without it spoiling the landscape design or dangling under your feet. Why not create a special niche for it directly in a wooden garden flowerpot?
Hanging flowerbed made from drainpipes
If the garden is very small, but you want to grow as many ornamental plants as possible, make hanging flower beds from a drainage profile. In addition, this will be a great solution if you want to grow some herbs out of your pet’s reach.
Flowerbed in cowboy boots
Create a unique planter by giving new life to your cowboy boots. Rest assured: they are ideal for growing small plants and will add a special touch to your garden.
Paint garden tools
Update your gardening tools so that all your tools look like they come from the same set. This is not at all difficult to do, for example, by painting all the handles in the same style. Or you can paint the metal parts of the equipment in bright colors. However, to do this, be careful when choosing paint so that it does not burst or peel off after several weeks of work in the garden.
Garden apron
Stay neat while gardening. An apron will help with this. There is another reason to buy or sew this accessory. You can keep the tools and seeds you need tucked into your belt or pockets.
Flowerbeds made from painted building blocks
Are there any unnecessary building blocks left? Don’t store them in a shed, as they will only clutter up the space. Paint them with bright geometric patterns and build original flower beds from them for a bright and extraordinary garden design.
Mini trellises for garden
Help potted bindweed create a stylish display by installing a small decorative arch or trellis directly into the planter.
Planter sign with house number
Need extra space for ornamental plants? Upgrade your house number sign by making it into a planter. This solution will become a stylish decor for the facade of the cottage.
Labels made from scrapbooking tape
Does it happen that you mistakenly take cilantro instead of parsley or confuse other herbs in the beds? To avoid confusion, label your crops by making decorative signs with colored, translucent scrapbooking washi tape.
Wooden outdoor flowerpots
Decorate your porch or backyard with one or more outdoor planters made from wood. Low-growing plants and flowers look good in oblong ones, but in classic square ones, you can plant low shrubs and trees, for example, thuja.
Boxes with flowers for the balcony
Decorate a balcony or terrace with slatted fencing with flower boxes. When the plants grow, they will create a cozy frame, and relaxing surrounded by greenery will become even more pleasant.
Hanging planters
Even on the smallest balcony, there is always room for a hanging planter.
Pockets for vertical gardening
Frames and nets with pockets for plants can be found ready-made for sale. Or you can put in a little effort and create a similar solution with your own hands. Ferns look especially impressive with such vertical gardening.
Monogram flower beds
Build a flowerbed in the shape of your initials. To make the symbol read better, plant it with one type of decorative foliage or flowering plant. By the way, the monogram can be made both horizontal and vertical.
Flowerpot made of mosaic tiles
Create even more space for ornamental plants by making a charming planter from mosaic tiles.
Seed balls
Roll the plant seeds into one large ball. Instead of making tiny holes and placing miniature seeds in there when planting, you have to make just one hole and drop that ball in there. What will this do besides speed up the landing process? You will have many plants growing in one small space.
Pots with gradient
Add even more color to your garden using colorful, gradient pots.
Plant boxes
Do you have paving slabs laid in your yard and there is absolutely no space for planting? You can still create a small garden using wooden boxes.
Hanging planters made from wicker baskets
Another idea for vertical gardening is hanging “beds” made from wicker baskets.
Our ideas will help transform the garden, and make it “not like everyone else’s.” Don’t be afraid to experiment. A garden plot is the very place where you can give free rein to your imagination.
