How Can I Make My Backyard Look More Expensive?
The backyard is a great place to spend time with friends and family, or even by yourself, especially if you are a gardener or nature watcher. Therefore, it’s important to make your outdoor space your own. Are you looking for budget-friendly ways to make your backyard look more expensive, we have the perfect backyard ideas to incorporate to accomplish this.
How Can I Make My Backyard Look More Expensive?
Listed below are some cost-effective backyard design features that you will oftentimes see when looking at modern, expensive homes.
1. Topiary Art
Topiary art can make your backyard look and feel like a million bucks. Bushy, leafy trees and bushes lend themselves better to topiary art than others. This type of backyard art can be as simple or elaborate as you want it to be.
Topiary art also adds immediate flair to your backyard, without the burden of a massive bill.
2. Small Water Features
Water features immediately add some class and tranquility to your space. Water features are available in all different shapes and sizes. There are even some types of water features that cost far under $100 that still offer a stylistic upgrade.
Installing a water feature can change the entire atmosphere of your space. Not to mention, the average water feature doesn’t cost as much as you would think in power consumption to run.
Water features can be made to look even better with surrounding decoration, including the addition of plants and string lights.
3. Install an Arch
An arch is one of the classiest things you can add to your backyard. The good news is that it also happens to be one of the more cost-effective design options. Arches are simple frames made from wood or metal and can be used as a guide for plant growth – or just as a clever, fancy entryway into the rest of your backyard.
Adding an arch is a simple, affordable way to show off the best parts of your garden.
An arch is a great idea to include with some of the other features highlighted in this article, including the use of designated garden areas.
4. Designated Garden Areas
Mark out specific areas of your garden for different things. For example, a small herb garden versus the area that leads to your water feature or flower garden.
The introduction of small garden areas like this is a great way to make your garden look larger and more elegant, and feel like there’s a lot more to it.
Designating garden areas is an old professional gardening trick that is often used to add space where there isn’t. You will soon notice that these designated areas can make a garden feel a whole lot larger than the space allows for.
5. Rocks and Other Art
Add rocks and other types of art features to your garden if you want to give it a more expensive, exclusive feel than it has right now.
Rocks, cement art, and other elements (such as small and intimate wooden bridges) can up-class a space without a lot of effort or money.
