June 22, 2015 by admin Leave a Comment

No matter what you’re designing, Pinterest is a great resource for getting ideas and inspiration. It is a place for smart and creative people to collect and share ideas around a specific topic. When it comes to inspiration for gardens and the patio, there are many useful resources to look at. In this blog, we highlight the five best boards to follow for garden design inspiration.

Great Gardens & Ideas

Incorporating elements of design into a garden or patio can be difficult for first timers. Whether you want to add a fountain, garden path, or outdoor kitchen, there are many important considerations. Designing an outdoor space can be just as tedious as indoor ones. Luckily, there are many useful Pinterest boards dedicated to patio and garden design that will inspire and guide you. The Great Gardens Ideas board by Mary Ann Rounseville has lots of useful ideas. She is a gardener and designer from Brooklyn, New York.

DIY Gardening Ideas

The DIY movement has more momentum than ever thanks to Pinterest and social media. In the garden, there are plenty of opportunities to do things yourself and save some money. Nothing beats the feeling of making something with your own hands and being able to enjoy the results with friends and family. Kathy Woodard is a DIY blogger and has a great Pinterest board called DIY Gardening Ideas.

Gardening Ideas

Gardening is not as simple as just planting a seed and watering. From insect repellant to fertilizers, there are many factors to consider when starting a garden. Different types of plants require different levels of attention and nutrients to grow properly. The Gardening Ideas Pinterest board has over 290 contributors and 19,000 pins! This means there is a diverse collection of gardening tips from a wide variety of gardeners.

Landscaping Ideas

Thanks to the growing importance of water conservation in California, desert landscaping has hit full stride and is more popular than ever. You can still have a beautiful and bountiful garden using native species of plants. These plants tend to be drought resistant and generally require very little watering. The Landscaping Ideas Pinterest board is run by Green Things Nursery in Tucson, AZ and post information relevant to gardening in the desert.

Outdoor Lighting Ideas

Good outdoor lighting is the key to being able to enjoy your patio during any time of the day. It can easily enhance the mood of any outdoor space, creating a magical or romantic feeling. Just a few LED lights in the right places can make a space feel more futuristic and exciting. Even when used in a practical manner, such as lighting a walkway, good outdoor lighting enhances the aesthetic value of any area. Dreamyard, the DIY gardening experts, have a great Pinterest board called Outdoor Lighting Ideas.

If you have never used Pinterest before it can be an overwhelming source of information. But with just a little bit of digging, you can have lots of useful and actionable information at your fingertips. Don’t be afraid to go beyond these recommended boards and find even more ideas to work with.
