With the cooler climate now coming to an end, many of you might be thinking its time to give some much-needed attention to your backyards and balconies. If you're on the lookout for a new DIY project this Spring, then we recommend giving one of these ones a go.
Edible Garden
There's never been a more perfect time for growing a range of vegetables, fruits and herbs than in the months leading up to Summer. If you're not sure where to begin, we recommend starting small. Herbs like basil, sage, oregano, parsley and chives are known to perform well in the Spring weather. If you're living in an apartment or unit, you can look into installing planters that hang off the balcony – just remember to make sure they're getting enough sun!
Outdoor Mini Bar
It's the season for entertaining, so why not make the most of your outdoor space? Styled appropriately, an outdoor bar will not only enhance the overall ambience of your backyard or decking area, but give you a relaxing space to unwind and have a drink or two. Have a look online for some DIY ideas to get those creative ideas flowing. You'll be surprised with what you can do with a little time and some repurposed materials!
