10 Backyard Must-Haves
1. Outdoor Grill Station
Take your grilling experience to the next level with an outdoor grill station!
This is an amazing way to transform your backyard into a functional and engaging living space. It’s perfect for gathering, entertaining guests and encouraging you and your family to spend more time cooking outdoors —making the most of those precious warm weather months.
2. Vertical Gardens
Don't let space limitations stand between you and your dream garden! Vertical gardens are a creative and cost-effective way to integrate greenery, lighting, fragrance and pops of color into any garden space. Not only are they aesthetically pleasing, but they also provide natural insulation, improve airflow, and are highly customizable.
3. Pergolas
Pergolas are beautiful outdoor accessories that provide shade and help define living spaces in your backyard. They are often used as a support point for climbing plants, garden lights, curtains, swings, hammocks, and many other decorative elements.
4. Raised Garden Beds
If you are looking to add dimension to your garden, you may want to consider installing raised garden beds. They are perfect for adding height and contrast to your landscape, as well as making gardening more accessible to everyone!
5. Built-in Seating
Another way to maximize the use of your outdoor space is to add built-in seating! Floating benches are excellent for repurposing unusable corners, saving space, and can even be designed with a dual-use purpose for storage. Add a few accent pillows and you’ve got durable, weather-resistant and affordable outdoor furniture to accommodate your guests year-round.
6. Decorative Fences
Your home improvement project doesn't have to cost a fortune. By simply sprucing up your fences and adding some garden lights, planters, and upcycled decor, you can beautify your garden without breaking the bank.
7. Backyard Deck
Backyard decks are a traditional way to elevate your property and increase the value of your home. Big or small, a patio is the go-to first step for starting your outdoor living space!
8. Gazebos
Unlike pergolas, gazebos have fully covered roofs that provide shelter and shade for you and your outdoor furniture. Gazebos are a simple way to create a unique and stunning outdoor living space.
9. Picnic Tables
Picnic tables aren’t just for the park anymore! No matter if you're throwing a party or crafting with the kids, this simple piece of outdoor furniture will be a solid centrepiece for years to come.
10. Outdoor Bar
It’s 5 O’clock somewhere, why not your backyard? Share a brew with your buddies or show off your mixology skills with cocktails, mocktails, and more for your new outdoor bar.
