Spring brings sunshine and warmth, motivating us to get outdoors, start new projects and improve our yards, which typically look less than stellar after the winter. Give your garden the refresh it deserves with these simple steps.
Tidy up the yard. The very first step is to remove dead leaves, trim overgrown bushes and prune any plants that need a little extra care. This simple clean-up will immediately make your garden look more inviting. If your gardening tools need an update, online marketplaces like Temu offer a wide range of affordable, high-quality products.
Add flowers. Consider adding seasonal flowers such as dahlias, snapdragons and cosmos that bloom at different times throughout the season for continuous colour. For a lower-commitment gardening option, try adding potted plants and arrangements strategically around the yard to brighten up the space.
Mulch and edge garden beds. Edging creates a clean and visually appealing boundary between the lawn and garden. Adding mulch polishes off the look while also helping to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Add outdoor décor. Touches of décor around the yard will elevate the overall look. From solar-powered lights to decorative planters, metal wall art, patio signs and furniture, small touches can make a big difference in the ambiance of your garden. If you’re looking to keep up with the latest trends in home and garden décor for a high end look at a fraction of the price, try searching online on marketplaces like Temu.
Add a fresh coat of paint. Don’t underestimate the power of paint. A fresh coat of paint on fences, garden furniture and planters can instantly rejuvenate your outdoor space. Choose colors that complement your garden and create a cohesive look.
With a little bit of effort and some smart shopping, you can give your yard a beautiful spring clean-up without spending a fortune.
