What garden or cottage attracts the attention of others? Those gardeners who like to decorate their site with exclusive plants, probably believe that flowers and trees are the most impressive elements of landscape design. Home craftsmen believe that their ideas, cleverly embodied in life, are the main ones. Both those and others are right. The garden and the cottage attract the attention of those around them in how they differ from other similar sites. The special decor for the garden, invented and embodied by the owners themselves, gives this place a special charm.
Fancy garden beds
The best part is that the creative process captures, captivates. Yielding to the desire to do something unusual and beautiful, we include our own imagination. And already she, gushing with ideas, awakens in us a potential that we did not even guess about. It turns out that we are able to make wonderful crafts from almost nothing. It’s especially nice to create a garden decor with your own hands: it is not for nothing that the author’s works are valued more than purchased ones.
Only garden beds can be invented and built a great many. But do not forget that the decor for the cottage and garden is an integral part of it, which means that it must correspond to the style chosen for the site and garden buildings.
Flowerbed chair
A chair found in a landfill can get a second life. It will become the basis for a mini-flowerbed, which is formed by a variety of plants growing in a bucket, a plastic pot or just in a basin.
Any suitable container can replace the chair seat. It is necessary to make holes in it and, having lined with geotextile, fill it with soil. For such a flower bed, mosses, sedums, youngsters and climbing plants will fit, which will cover the details of the chair, turning it into an element of the garden.
A chair that has served its purpose will unexpectedly decorate the site and help its owner show his outstanding imagination and creativity
Flower bed island
This hit of modern design art is easy to build yourself. To do this, you need a container with holes, which is lined with geotextiles and filled with soil. For greater stability, it is placed in a piece of polystyrene foam, decorated with fabric or moss. Daylilies, swamp irises, a swimsuit, a nymphaeum, a saberfoot, calamus and other moisture-loving plants are just designed for such flower beds.

Its not too attractive appearance quickly closes with growing shoots. As the soil using a mixture of sand, peat and humus leaves. Hydrogel granules will help retain moisture. Ampel plants are ideal for hanging baskets.
Flowers everywhere - this is the motto of fans of hanging beds, but we should not forget that these beds should be light and airy.
Flower beds from "what horrible"

We decorate a winter garden
Not all winter periods move to city apartments. Owners of warm country cottages are left to winter in them. However, the winter cold is not a reason to pacify your imagination, and the approach of the New Year and Christmas provides a special energy charge for the implementation of new winter ideas.
For the embodiment of fantasies, we will use ordinary children's balloons. By the way, it is children who can become not only co-authors of such works, but also supportive critics of the results.
Colored ice
We breed in different containers of paint with water. It is better to use food coloring or watercolor. You can add sparkles or chopped into small pieces of New Year's "rain". Pour the solution into a children's balloon and tie it well, after which it goes to frost. We freeze the frozen ice from the rubber shell. The icicles should be bright, transparent and look like colorful candies. We spread them along the track or where we want.
Fantasy cannot wait until spring warm days, it constantly gives rise to new ideas that are so pleasant to implement, making life brighter
Flying balls
Such balls will decorate tree branches before the New Year, giving them a fabulous look. For such balls, a white thread of medium thickness with Lurex is more suitable. It is necessary to inflate the balloon, loosely wrap it with threads, and then cover with PVA glue. When the glue dries, the ball is simply pierced with a needle and carefully removed from the resulting flying ball.
In winter, flying balls look like snowballs that froze in flight, and in spring they become as interesting details of Easter decoration as rabbits, cakes and eggs
To decorate the garden for Easter, you can also use flying balls, only you need to make them as bright and colorful as eggs.
Examples of successful use of wood
What can be compared with a tree in harmony of entering into any style of a garden plot? Naturalness and, at the same time, that special warmth that is bestowed by wood, allows you to create an amazing wooden decor for a summer house and garden.
Wooden figures
This is the most popular form of wood decor. Usually wooden figures, if they are not given a bright coloring, are almost invisible in the garden. This is their special charm. They arise suddenly, but do not scare, but delight, involving in the wonderful world of Nature.
The forester or the fairy-tale king of the forests does not seem scary at all, on the contrary, they protect the garden and its owners from uninvited visitors, but they are always welcome to kind guests
Forgotten things
As a decor for the garden, they use wood items that have long served their purpose. Looks great old cart or tub, acting as a flower bed, or garden stairs, which now plays the role of whatnot.
The original flowerbed can be made from a barrel, read about it: //diz-cafe.com/dekor/klumba-bochka.html
Once needed, but today forgotten, but not abandoned wooden items look unusually harmonious on the site, emphasizing their natural origin
Functional items
For all its decorativeness, wood products can be quite functional. This is a decorative bridge over a stream, and a bench guarded by wooden guard bears.
The one who believes that the decor elements cannot be functional is wrong: make sure that the decorative bridge came in handy on this garden site
The fantasy of man is inexhaustible. Moreover, the more intensively the bottomless well of creative energy is used, the more actively Nature fills it, helping us to invent and realize real miracles.
