At any cottage, instead of the usual landing site, you can arrange a real recreation and beauty park. At the same time, no one cancels the planting of useful plants, trees and shrubs. Just with an unusual design and several creative or functional ideas, the summer cottage will be transformed, it will play not only a practical role, but also an aesthetic one. The Novate.ru editorial board offers a selection of ideas that can be realized with the help of imagination and improvised means.
1. Stylish organization
Sometimes, all that is needed for an interesting design of a site is the use of non-standard shapes. Who said that the beds should always be planted in strict rectangular sectors. It is quite possible to choose rhomboid, triangular or trapezoidal, which together or separately will create their own unique picture. It is better to separate each sector with paths covered with gravel or small stones, or decorated with tiles. It looks very impressive, but the site remains convenient and practical.
2. Merry seedlings
Seedlings are often planted in ordinary plastic bottles - this is economical and convenient. But this does not mean that such a simple and nondescript container cannot be beautifully or creatively decorated. A little humor and creativity will allow you to grow a new crop in a good mood. Just glue the lid in the form of a nose and eyes to make a funny gnome. A similar idea can be used for house flowers or potted outdoor plants.
3. Additional inventory
If the plants are planted in separate isolated beds, it will be convenient to keep track of them. In order for insects not to spoil plants and crops, you can arrange a protection in the form of a mesh that does not interfere with growth and, if necessary, is very easy to remove from the supports.
4. Birdsong
The singing of birds also very much decorates the summer cottage, although not visually. Although it is also very pleasant and interesting to admire the little creatures. In order for the birds to more often please with their presence, they need to organize feeders. You can, of course, make them simple without spending a lot of time, but if you attract a little imagination and improvised means, you get a real decorative decoration for a garden or vegetable garden.
Feeders can be made using old or unwanted dishes, painted wood, plywood or styrofoam, clay pots, or decorated aluminum cans.
Useful advice: It is not necessary to make feeders at the top of a fence or tree. It is quite possible to place them closer to the ground, but it is worth making sure that this place is as secluded and remote from people as possible.
5. Stone decoration
There is nothing difficult in finding a stone of the right size and shape, and then creating a real picture from it. With the help of acrylic paints, an inanimate object can be provided with a kind of new life: colorful cacti, funny faces, ladybugs or simply multi-colored stones will add originality and liveliness to the summer cottage.
6. Wicker baskets
You can easily make a beautiful and very original decor for plants from a vine with your own hands. It looks like baskets, but in fact they have no bottom, so they weave very quickly and without much effort. A flower bed in this form will look luxurious anywhere on the site.
7. Mill
It is not difficult to build such a mill. First you need to lay out a base of stones, which will be fixed to each other with cement, and then build mill blades from small wooden sticks of different lengths. Around the building you can create a flower bed with beautiful flowers and additional decor. Bags filled with straw or other unnecessary material will look very original and organic in this composition.
8. Vertical beds
At the summer cottage, you can always find an additional landing site. Plants will grow quite well in plastic bottles or pots attached to a rope, wall, fence, or special stand. Simple, fast, creative and very convenient.
Plants suspended from ropes will look very original and unusual. Especially if you place them on the veranda.
