A couple of weeks ago I shared the vinyl and wood come together patio sign I made for this month’s DIY challenge along with links from other bloggers who shared ideas for updating their outdoor spaces. Today I’ve rounded up some of my favorite ideas from the ones that were shared. These creative ideas for your outdoor garden will add something special to your yard and give your vegetable and flower beds a personalized DIY touch. Be sure to read all the way to the bottom because I saved my favorite project for last {wink}!
If you have a smaller yard or just a patio and only have room for a container garden, make it a good one! Give regular galvanized planters or buckets an aged appearance with this simple technique.
Skip the containers and build a vertical garden instead. Wouldn’t this be a gorgeous way to also create a privacy screen from the neighbors? I’m thinking of building one for my back patio, just to create a little ambience.
If the pots you find for your garden don’t match your style, paint them! You can add any colors, patterns, or designs you want to really personalize your outdoor living space.
Planning on doing it big this year? Build a DIY raised garden bed for all your plants and vegetables.
Weeds are the worst part of gardening but they don’t have to ruin your fun. Check out these eight tips for a weed free garden!
Hold plants up or just add a decorative feature to your garden with a simple custom-sized wood trellis.
Keep plants from growing outside the garden and add some interest with brick garden borders and edging.
And finally, if you want to keep pets and kiddos out of the garden area, build a DIY farmhouse style garden fence. Isn’t it gorgeous?
