Bright design of a pond or flower bed

It is interesting that the originality of some ideas just rolls over, but this is only for the better, because creativity in the summer cottage has always been welcomed. Today we suggest you start with a rather interesting design idea for a small pond or flower bed.

Our idea is a cute and inexpensive do-it-yourself fence, which can be created from a wooden beam, concrete posts or even old sleepers. As you can see in the presented photo, there is nothing complicated here - uniform stacking of elements in shape landscape element, fixing on the surface of the earth, connection under the slider ("dog").

It may seem difficult to make the “dog” itself, but if you pick up the foam high density, then you can cut out such a work without difficulty. If it is possible to weld this element from metal, you are always welcome.

Seating area and "green" table

Many of us really like natural elements decorating the dacha territory, and therefore our next design idea will be to install such a table in the recreation area at the dacha. “Assembling” it is very simple, and for this you do not need to hire creative people who will charge a lot of money for such a work. You can make a cool table with your own hands yourself. You only need to build a rectangular, cube-shaped structure of brick or stone, make special side plates for growing plants (for example, install even standard cassettes), and plant moss on the structure. We do not promise that you will get such beauty right away, but if you try, then after a certain time you will receive a unique country table, on which you will only need to install a countertop.

Country decorations from old furniture

Do not throw away old furniture, because with its help you can decorate the landscape of the territory in a very original way. For example, we will use old chairs, in the seat of which we will install pots or. It can be other plants that will decorate the old chair, the main thing is that you like them.

Installing the potty in the seat of the chair is very simple. Further, he will need to provide standard care. Old furniture can also be tightened up a bit and painted to make it last longer.

Fishing attributes in the country

Do you live near a river or lake and like to fish? Then any old boat that is no longer used for its intended purpose is perfect for decorating the landscape of the dacha. As you can see, her appearance can be very simply put in order, and wonderful flowers can be planted inside. It is advisable to use a special shelf for soil inside the boat or cassette, so as not to cover the entire volume with soil. Also, we recommend annual flowers for planting, they are less whimsical, and you can change them every year in order to qualitatively change the appearance.

Making the main buildings in the country

On the suburban area there is a house summer cuisine, barn and other buildings? Then we decorate them too, because it is very easy to do. For example, do-it-yourself decoration of summer cottage buildings can take place with the help of old and specially prepared for this tree branches and twigs.

You can create a minimalist decor, but direct it to a rustic style, or you can tie our original idea for a summer residence to decoration with live plants. As you can see, it's very beautiful.

creative palisade decoration

Do not want to plant a lot of plants in the front garden and pay attention to them? Then just sow the soil lawn grass and on the basis of a green carpet, create beauty from a variety of elements. You can send your ideas closer to Russian or rustic style, that is, work under classic design. We suggest you install pieces of a wooden fence, a small fence, an entrance arch with ornaments and decorations, install several carts or wheelbarrows around the site in which you can plant flowers. In addition, you can very successfully decorate the buildings that are nearby with greenery, applying to them a variety of weaving plants or even vertical gardening.

We bring modern notes to the design of the cottage

Don't want to work with tools and carts? Create a real miracle against the backdrop of your own fantasies, which will not only surprise and delight everyone who sees it, but also make everyone smile.

For the basis of our design, we took a broken bamboo fishing rod, two pieces of thick wire, plastic bottles and old shoes. Next, set the shoes near the threshold country house, a wire was driven into the path through them, which was decorated with bamboo, simply by putting it on top. Further, the wire was bent and small pots for flowers, made by hand from plastic bottles, were picked up on it. After, only decor with gold spray paint and plants in shoes. Isn't it very cute and funny?

We decorate the country porch

Each of us has a lot of worn out clothes that migrate to the country. Well, like in the old one, you can do any work without fear of getting dirty and so on. We offer if you take to the country old clothes, then more, because you can make so funny and funny things out of it that there will be no limit to the surprise of your relatives, and even neighbors.

We give the simplest example where our readers decorated with jeans. The result is, so to speak, only legs, from which perennial grasses grow. Cute, original, and most importantly, very simple and without financial costs.

Inexpensive swing for a summer residence

Have you been dreaming of installing a swing for a long time and do not allocate time and a share of the budget for their purchase? It doesn’t matter, because today you can forget about waste and make a swing for a summer residence with your own hands. It's very easy, all you need is a few meters of strong rope, an old wooden chair and a bearing mount. old chair it’s easy to find in the country, it’s also easy to strengthen it with several wooden slats. Next, painting, drilling holes for the rope, installing swing mounts on a strong branch of an old tree and hanging ropes on it with a chair already fixed, which all together form an excellent swing for your child or grandson. Naturally, for an adult, this design is not very suitable.

Bright design of a wooden fence with glass

So, to decorate a wooden fence, you will need yourself wooden fence, a drill with several drills and a set of large transparent and multi-colored beads or glass. You can use any other transparent and multi-colored elements for decoration.

We randomly drill through holes in a wooden fence different diameter and simply insert beads and glasses into them, which will play with highlights-gems every time they pass through them Sun rays. In the picture, this work of art looks simply amazing, but in real life, the originally designed country fence is generally charming.

Invent something new, combine different fragments already ready ideas, collect your family's ideas and bring them to life with my own hands, because it is not only very interesting and fun, and sometimes quite practical.

If the cottage is located far from a natural reservoir, it is possible to equip a mini-pond in the recreation area at low cost. To do this, you do not need to buy ready-made containers to create an artificial backwater. An old bathtub, which will cost nothing, is perfect, the coating on them is of sufficient quality, it will last a long time. 2 - 3 bathtubs installed in series one above the other will create a cascade. You can decorate with granite, slate or other material to your taste.

The main thing when creating beauty in a summer cottage is not to overdo it :) because the decor tends to lose its attractiveness over time under the influence of the sun and precipitation. That is why I prefer to confine myself to decor in the recreation area, and still use the rest of the plot for growing cucumber-tomatoes.

Oksana Vladimirovna 23.12.2015

I really liked the fire with "cast iron". And what flowers: ryhnis or primrose? And I liked it with glass in the fence. I think they can also be adapted to the grid.

Oh, how I liked the little bench with an awning) This is from barrels, right? In theory, it will not be difficult for a man to make one, but will it be durable? And the decorations for the front garden are interesting) The recreation area is very good, but not everyone has enough space to arrange it on such a grand scale. We only have a gazebo with a table and benches and a barbecue. I decorate with climbing plants.

Wooden barrels with water are very cool: they will be an excellent decor for a country pond or column. A unique atmosphere of antiquity is immediately created, as if you are mentally transported to an era when water had to be carried in buckets on yokes, and each yard had its own well.

Do not deprive the chance for a second life and iron barrels. They can be well treated for rust, painted and used not only for storing water, but also as a barbecue. Agree, you definitely won’t find such a brazier in every yard.

Yes, and to decorate the backyard, iron barrels will come in handy. You can decorate them however you like and bring life to even the darkest and most shady area of ​​the garden. And elegant decorations like umbrellas or bows will only add color to the figurines.

Before painting, the iron barrel is thoroughly washed and dried, sanded from rust with a stiff iron brush, and then with sandpaper. It is enough to wash and dry a plastic barrel. Often, the green or blue background of the plastic barrel is left, just put a picture on it. iron barrels primed before painting, then painted with paint for metal in 2-3 layers, allowed to dry, and then a pattern is applied.

And here is a modest, but roomy flower bed for flowering plants.

Let's not disregard the old garden stairs. After thoroughly drying, sanding and painting the stairs, you can turn it into a comfortable and original hanger for the hallway. At least it is very convenient to hang clothes on hangers.

You can also make original flower beds from old stairs. The composition will acquire a special flavor if you supplement it with all sorts of antiques - pots, carts, even old shoes can be used.

However, an ordinary wall composition will look great if you choose the right weaving and flowering plants. The background can be both bright and plain - in each case, the flower garden will look different.

DIY crafts from bottles, cans

Interesting ideas for giving with plastic bottles

Plastic is a readily available and inexpensive material. Thanks to such qualities as strength, flexibility and durability, modern craftsmen for summer cottages have found many applications for it:

• funny crafts;
• improvised tools and devices;
• protective fences for trees from rodents and flowers;
• bird feeder and fly trap;

For these purposes, you should stock up on patience and ingenuity. Summer cottages are built from whole containers filled with sand or earth and fastened with screws. The soil will give strength and reliability to the structure.

Country ideas: use tree twigs

Wicker structures made of rods - the most economical option country house decor. You can weave baskets, arbors, benches, arches, supports for climbing plants, fencing fountains and ponds.

But the most common is the fence - wattle. They can protect not only a summer cottage, but also allocate a recreation area, a place for pets or green spaces. This do-it-yourself idea for giving in pictures and on the site looks especially and original.

To create a wicker fence, the twigs of willow trees growing in the lowlands near the water are used. You can also use young aspen, hazel or any available branches garden trees. For weaving, annual even shoots are taken, which are harvested in the fall. They are sanded, dried, tied in bunches and stored for storage. Before use, a dry vine should be steamed well, and for maximum security, it should be well treated with an antiseptic for wood.

Unfortunately, the traditional wattle fence is short-lived, it can last no more than 5 years. To prevent rotting of the fence, you need to install a low brick foundation or make a small drainage from the sand. Wattle can also be made from cattail or reeds.

It is better to paint any product from a vine with natural dyes:

• hydrogen peroxide will give the rods a white color;
• potassium permanganate or stain will give a brown color;
• iron sulfate will make a gray tint.

It all depends on the creative nature of the master and skillful hands.
