7 Garden Decoration Ideas to Turn Your Backyard Into an Oasis

Did you know that it’s possible for homeowners to deduct landscaping expenses when filing their taxes? This makes it one of the most noteworthy home renovations that you could invest in.

Regardless of the tax benefits, adding a garden to your home is a great way to improve the overall atmosphere of your backyard.

However, not everybody understands how to make their garden as appealing as possible.
Read our guide below to learn everything you need to know about garden decoration.

1. Water Features

These are a garden must-have. Not only do they add a touch of elegance, but they also provide a soothing sound that serves as  the perfect background noise for a relaxing afternoon outside. If you don’t have room for a large water feature, even adding a small one in a corner or niche can go a long way toward improving the atmosphere of your outdoor space.

2. Potted Plants

One of the easiest ways to liven up your garden is the addition of potted plants. Available in a variety of shapes and sizes to add dimension and interest, these can be arranged and rearranged to create different looks depending on season or event.

Be sure to choose plants that are compatible with the climate in your area to ensure survivability and year round beauty. You should also consider whether or not you have the time and desire to care for the plants. Some people make the mistake of purchasing a large number of potted plants and then neglecting them, which will have the opposite of the desired effect. 

3. Garden Sculptures

Adding garden sculptures is a great way to personalize your outdoor space and add an element of artistry to your garden. They also provide a lovely contrast to the natural environment. When it comes to selecting sculptures, the possibilities are endless. You  will have no trouble finding something that expresses your personality or ties the aesthetic of your garden together. Even if you cannot find the perfect statue, you can always commission a custom piece.

4. Wind Chimes

Wind chimes add beauty and charm to any garden while discouraging unwanted birds from destroying your plants or coming too near to your pets. Whether you’re looking for elegance or a bohemian aesthetic, you can’t go wrong with the soothing appeal of wind chimes.

5. Garden Benches

Garden benches are perfect for creating a relaxing seating area in your garden. Be sure to choose a bench that is durable and weather-resistant so that it will last for years to come. It is also worth considering how well the material will coordinate with the surroundings. For instance, your garden features stonework,  a stone bench would most likely be the best option. Otherwise, you may opt for metal or wood.

6. String Lights

String lights add  ambiance and magic to any outdoor space. Available in a variety of colors, fairy lights can be used to create a romantic setting or simply to provide extra light for nighttime gatherings. If you choose a lights with adjustable color settings you have even more flexibility to change the color of your string lights to match your desired mood or atmosphere. 

7. Garden Bridges

If you choose to include a body of water in your space, you can create a stunning visual focal point by selecting a garden bridge to span it. You’ll want to make sure that the bridge you choose is durable and resistant to your local climate conditions to ensure that it will last for years to come.

You can also use decorative bridges over areas of your garden that are unsafe or unpleasant to walk through such as a ditch or rockery. When incorporated correctly a bridge can be an aesthetically pleasing addition to your garden.

Garden Arrangement Doesn’t Have to Be Difficult

Using these tips, you will find adding tax deductible value to your home through the addition of garden appeal much easier than you may have anticipated.
