Are you interested in making your garden stand out and ensuring that it looks unique from the other houses on your street? If so, then you should think about choosing a theme and building a garden design around it. This type of theming is a great way to make sure that your garden looks stunning and it can even make walking into your garden a completely, visually immersive experience. So, let’s look at some of the themes that you can aim for and figure out how to create them, completely from scratch.
Fairy Garden
One option would be to create a garden that feels almost magical and mystical. To do this, you need to think about adding some water features. Water features are great as the droplets of water can hit different services creating a mystical sound. Even the visual of dripping water can be rather magical, particularly when under the right lighting.
Speaking of lighting, there are plenty of different ways to use lighting and ensure that your garden looks completely magical. One possibility would be hanging lanterns. You can hang lanterns on string over your garden which will provide a warm glow over the area and visually look quite fantastic.
Finish it off with a small fairy door as a centerpiece. This can be set up at the bottom of your garden and be fitted in between rockery pieces where it will look tremendous.
Tropical
Or, how about creating a garden with a fun, colourful and tropical theme? To do this, you simply need to make sure that you are choosing flowers that have a tropical aesthetic. You might be surprised to learn that plenty of tropical flowers will have no problem growing in the UK climate, even with little to no maintenance.
You might also want to think about the colours and shades you use for things like ground materials. These should be bright and colourful too so choose gravel that provides an array of different shades that mesh well together.
Finish off the effect by hanging a hammock between two of the trees in your garden. This will be perfect as a spot for relaxing on summer days.
Woodland
Finally, you might want to create a garden with a woodland theme. It’s perhaps best to start off here with evergreen trees. These trees are the best option because they won’t change through the seasons. That means that your garden will always have a leafy aesthetic. You can think about the ground covering here as well. Kelkay cobbles could be the perfect choice with forest green cobbles that make your garden look like a natural area controlled by nature.
A water feature wouldn’t look out of place here either. However, if you are choosing one make sure that you select a piece that provides a natural aesthetic. With a natural water feature you can make sure that it fits well with the overall theme.
We hope you love these ideas and look forward to setting up your own garden theme.
