Need help with garden designs
Comments (11)When I finally bought a house of my own I had a plan to build a design studio in the garden. After a few alterations on the house ate up some money I didn't have in the first place there was nothing really available to get on with the building of a studio. However I got hold of lots of salvage, including doors and windows and long timber beams to make the roof so that after some de-nailing I could get on with the job. There was some cost in that for a truck and things like screws, nails and cement but not much. Then when I was ready to clad the outside of the building I went to my local fencing supplier pleading poverty and asking if he had cheap suggestion for cladding and he pointed to a pile of waste packing materials and said I could take as much as I liked. It was just short lengths, some no good but much of it useable. A few trips later I had an outer skin to my building for the cost of a couple bags of nails (I draw the line at straightening used nails!). Where there's a will there's a way. I didn't want to discourage just to save time by pointing out that on a very small budget it has be largely DIY. Although you might know friends who would help a bit for a good meal?...See MoreHelp with garden design
Comments (9)Clip the ivy close to the wall with hedge cutters. This looks very smart. Use glyphosphate (eg Roundup) to kill all weeds in the paving. Avoid upsetting the mortar between the pavers with reckless use of a knife or a pressure washer. Cut out any dead wood right down to the ground, weed between the plants if necessary and then enjoy the garden from a comfortable chair for a whole season and see what comes up, what you like and what needs removing. A shed for the clutter is a good idea as is scattering some annual seeds for a bit of colour in the summer - marigolds, nasturtium, love in the mist perhaps, specially if it's a sunny site. Painted furniture also cheers the place up. Avoid cluttering the space with lots of small pots - a few large ones crammed with plants is much more effective. Use next winter to make any changes. Don't rush it. You need to enjoy this potentially lovely space....See MoreNeed Help with back garden design
Comments (7)I would get rid of the lawn and replace it with decking and lots of borders: look at this site, a similar but larger garden to see the reason why that can work: http://www.lucywillcoxgardendesign.com/Projects/Pages/Highgate_-_Love_Your_Garden.html I would add a shed/summer house combo to maximise outdoor space or at least one with a porch (sometimes sold as lumber/timber drying areas) as that can double up space for kids toys and storage....See MoreHELP!

Comments (14)The highlight of your site can be a small pond. Add a couple of moisture-loving plants to it and your garden will sparkle with new colors. You can also divide the site into separate zones. So that they do not visually mix, use a frame with climbing plants or a hedge. Garden paths will help to add elegance and grooming to the site. In addition to practical functions, they carry aesthetic value. Also, do not forget to equip a comfortable and cozy seating area in your garden. Landscape design should begin with a plan drawing and functional zoning of the territory. It is necessary to indicate the location of all necessary items and sites on the map of the area, taking into account the size. If there are children in the family, then it is important to provide a playground. The playing area should be located partly in the shade, partly in the sun and without drafts. The design of technical premises requires a serious approach. It is customary to locate a barn and a compost pit near the garden. If it becomes necessary to heat the house with the help of firewood for their storage, an additional building is erected. Firewood sheds can be adjacent to the barn or located at a distance - in the second case, they often perform a decorative function Add nformation https://sirinsoftware.com/industries/consumer-electronics-solutions/...See MoreScarlett
