Make your backyard beautiful
Wouldn’t you love to step out your back door and wander around this garden? What is it that makes it feel so inviting?
Three things: Colors, curving lines of the path and the gurgle of a charming water feature. Just click ahead to explore!
Choose a color theme
Warm colors, such as yellow, orange, chartreuse and red, brighten any area and add big impact.
Choosing a color palette is a great way to unify your garden. But don’t feel like you have to stick to it exclusively. A few blues and purples make a great contrast here. The key is to have more of your chosen color scheme than anything else.
Plan a pleasing path
This flagstone walkway has casual curves, for a welcoming look. And it’s wide enough for visitors to travel in pairs or even gather in some areas, to enjoy the open feel of the garden.
Just add water
A great focal point in any season, a water feature adds relaxing sights and sounds to the garden, whether you’re enjoying it from the deck or up close.
