Top 5 Ways to Decorate Your Backyard

Start a Garden

A garden can make your backyard more functional and decorative. You won’t just make the most out of your outdoor space, but also get to grow your favorite crops and eat fresh vegetables or fruits from your own garden.  If your backyard is too small for a traditional garden, opt for a vertical garden.

Vertical gardens make use of small spaces available outdoors. Whether you live upcountry or in an urban house, your backyard can support a vertical garden. Also known as ‘living walls’, vertical gardens run up walls, leaving space for foot traffic. It can add depth to your backyard, giving it an appealing look.

Balcony rails, fences and empty walls provide the support required by a vertical garden. Grow your tomatoes, onions or any other type of vegetable on your traditional garden. If you opt for a vertical garden, consider running crops with vines such as passion fruits or vineyard tomato varieties. Also consider arranging potted plants to create an ideal garden in your backyard.

Install Outdoor Lighting

Install outdoor lighting in your backyard to increase its versatility. Install fairy lights, period sconces, bamboo torches or modern LEDs to give your backyard an elegant look. Illuminating your backyard isn’t just decorative, but also functional. Use the lights at night to illuminate your dining or barbecue area whenever you hold a party or simply put them on at night to give your home a cozy look.

Votive candles and outdoor pendants can give your backyard whichever kind of ambience you’d like outdoors. Go for modest lighting, but make sure to choose colors that don’t just enhance the appearance of your home, but also blends with those in your interior space.

Use Decorative Accessories

Simply adding a few decorative pieces in your backyard can give your outdoor space an interesting look. Vases, potted plants, ornaments and decorative tiles can help spruce up your outdoor space. Placing seashells and stones at strategic places such as pavements can also improve your backyard.
