For many of us, our garden is a place of relaxation and tranquillity – a place to chill out after you’ve had a long day. But what if you could take it one step further and transform your garden into an outdoor spa?
Outdoor spa days are continuing to increase in popularity, so why not avoid the hassle of trying to make a booking and create your own spa at home experience that you can enjoy any time you please.
To help inspire you, we’ve put together a handful of ideas that will help to give your garden the outdoor spa treatment.
If you do find yourself using any power tools or new pieces of furniture, always read the instruction manuals. We also recommend you read our DIY Safety Tips.
Colour scheme
Keeping your garden colour scheme neutral is a simple way to create a calming atmosphere for your outdoor spa. Using soft, subtle dashes of colour – such as light yellows and blues – will keep the setting from feeling overpowered.
Limit your plants to green and cream shades and opt for a simple layout – green is the ultimate colour for relaxation and is a great year-round colour.
Keep your fences and surrounding walls similar colours to complete the scene. If you feel like your garden needs a freshen up, check out our Garden Paint.
Top tip: Any sized garden can be transformed into an outdoor spa, but check out this handy guide to find out which colours you can paint your perimeters to make it feel bigger.
