With summer just a few months away, you want your garden to be your outdoor oasis. So, in addition to the tilling, digging, weeding and prep-work you will do for planting season, there are a few other ways you can prepare the space for the summer months.
Consider installing a new patio. There are so many options that you can choose from, like wooden or marble. Add to the space a beautiful swing set or some decorative statues. However, no matter what decorative pieces you keep here, do not forget to install a good-quality retractable patio awning (that can be purchased from an awnings company in Edmonton or nearby areas) as it can allow you to utilize the space during the rainy season or harsh summers.
Consider new patio furniture or sets. Since you’re setting up the patio, you might as well make it more inviting. Add new chairs, lounge blankets, tables, and other items to decorate the space. It will not only look better, it is also a quiet, calm and tranquil place for you to relax after a long day of work.
Consider creating a beautiful and functional walkway. A bluestone path that traverses from your back door to your garden through the new patio can greatly enhance the appeal and usability of your garden. Consider the layout and placement to ensure a seamless flow throughout your outdoor space. Whether you choose a straight path or a meandering trail, make sure that it fits well with the rest of your backyard aesthetic.
Consider a hot tub. You can invest in an inflatable tub. These are affordable, can be moved easily and they are perfect for entertaining. You can enjoy the warm, relaxing bubbles after a long day or simply lounge around on your days off during the summer months. You don’t have to do any digging or costly work to install an inground tub with the many different inflatable tub options.
Of course, you are going to plant and install outdoor lighting to help liven up the space as well. These are a few simple ways in which you can make the most out of the outdoor space this summer. Not only so it is going to look good when all the hard work is done but also to ensure you are going to utilise the space during the warm months of the year you have been waiting so long to arrive.
