After the turmoil, disruption and in some people’s cases, utter devastation caused by the various and far-reaching effects of the worldwide coronavirus pandemic, it is entirely understandable why there has been an unprecedented surge in people across the length and breadth of the country booking staycations and day trips with their friends and family.

However, another area of modern life and commerce that has also seen an incredible surge, is that of DIY and home improvement, specifically relating to gardens and backyards. With this in mind, continue reading to learn of 4 utterly fabulous ideas to transform your backyard this spring.

1.   Consider An Outhouse

The beauty of the installation of an outhouse is that such a structure is ideal for virtually any shape or size of garden and will provide a myriad of benefits to not only yourself, but other members of your family and visiting loved ones.

Such advantages of choosing an outhouse as part of your backyard transformation include:

• A cost-effective area for storage
• Extra space
• Durable and low maintenance when constructed using the correct materials
• Easily movable or replaced
• Aesthetically attractive focal point or a subtle and hidden structure depending on your preference

2.   Build Or Install A Brand-New Deck

If you are someone who is never happier than when they are entertaining their friends, family members and loved ones at home in their own space, then the addition of decking, either attached to the main building itself, or else as a separate, raised entertainment area, is a good idea.

When searching for deck and patio near me, whether you are intending on planning, constructing and building the decking yourself or else hiring a company to do the hard work for you, be sure to do as much research as possible into the right materials and components to ensure a durable and long-lasting finished product.

3.   A Permanent Yurt

If you are someone who loves nothing more than relaxing in the garden with a good book, a glass of wine and reveling in the peace and quiet of nature, then an admittedly somewhat ostentatious, yet incredibly beautiful addition to your backyard space, would be that of a yurt.

There are so many different uses for a yurt in your garden, as well as the aforementioned self-care time you will afford yourself, including the provision of another place for visitors to sleep, a way for your children to play safely outside whilst still being visible from the main house and perhaps most pertinently, a fabulous entertainment area for parties and social gatherings.

4.   Invest In Decadent & Eye-Catching Garden Furniture

When standing in your home and looking out into the garden, surveying your land if you will, you eye will be naturally drawn to certain focal points and one of the most important focal points of them all is that of your garden seating.

If your old benches, tables and chairs are looking decidedly weathered and are certainly past their proverbial best, then invest time, attention and money into purchasing a brand-new set. For extra comfort, buy a garden furniture set which comes with waterproof and padded cushions.
