May Makeover: Backyard on a Budget!

 

 

 

 

 

 

By Wiggles Pig

I’ve had a lot of requests about how to create a sensational garden while still watching your cents.

Not to worry, Webkinz fans. You don’t have to be Fluffington St. Bernard to enjoy a stunning outdoor space.

I thought I’d show you a backyard I recently completed on a very tight budget to demonstrate how sometimes less really can be more. This backyard is an excellent example of how simplicity and symmetry can create a true wow factor.

Even though I only had $3000 to work with, I decided to use almost half my budget to make an eye-catching focal point by circling a colorful geranium bush with a rustic flagstone path. An attractive but inexpensive bench sits between two elegant urns at the end of the yard, and I used repetition to enhance the simplicity by placing two basic wood benches on either side of the yard. A reasonably priced tree and some inexpensive fencing was all I needed to complete my minimalist look.

The end result? A restful, calming space in which the impact comes from what’s NOT there. And so do the savings!
