Functional but Effortlessly Stylish Touches to Make Your Small Garden Look Incredible

 

Small gardens can be difficult to make the most of, and many owners of small garden spaces often end up leaving the space to its own devices. It is true that small gardens can be a challenge, but it is still worth putting some time and effort into making them look as good as possible.

You will need to measure out the space carefully and be flexible with what you want in your small garden. Planning is key to making the most of small or awkwardly shaped garden spaces, so it may help to make a floor plan to track where you want everything to go.

Create Moveable Garden Beds A garden never feels complete without flowers and plants to tend and looking after plants can be good for your wellbeing, but it can be difficult to know where to plant in a small garden. Having permanent garden beds will limit your options in the future, so choosing moveable beds can be a great solution. You could get some planters on wheels that you can move easily around the space, clearing areas when needed. This can also help keep the style of your garden fresh, as you can change the layout at will.

 

Make a Garden Tool Trolley

 

Storing tools is another key issue in a small garden. Where you might include a shed or bench storage in a larger space, small gardens will require a more creative approach. Investing in a tool trolley can be a great option, as it allows you to move tools around the same way as your planters. This has the added benefit of making it easy to bring your tools along when tending your garden.

 

Store Logs Vertically

 

If you need fuel for an indoor wood-burning fire or outdoor firepit, storing logs can take up a lot of space. With any small space, utilising vertical space is critical, so you could consider one of these stylish and elegant vertical log stores from Lux Unique.

 

Keep The Garden Neat And Tidy

 

Clutter is the enemy of style, whether inside or outdoors. With a small garden, any amount of clutter can make the whole space feel less inviting and more stressful than relaxing. Keeping on top of clutter and ensuring your plants don’t get overgrown or untidy is crucial to ensure you continue to enjoy the space.

 

Use Hanging Baskets

 

Hanging baskets are another excellent way to make the most of all the space available in your garden. These can be hung around the space, giving your garden layers and making it a more relaxing environment. It is important to avoid including too many hanging baskets, as the result may end up feeling cluttered or claustrophobic.

 

Install Fold-Away Garden Furniture

 

A garden is meant to be relaxed in, so you will need garden furniture. Unfortunately, this can end up taking up a lot of the available space. A good solution can be to invest in garden furniture that folds away small, giving you extra space when needed. You could consider a folding table bolted to the wall and sun loungers and chairs that can be folded away in a corner of the garden.
