Summer is the perfect time to get outside and spruce up your garden spaces. As Beautiful Homes & Gardens suggests, you can create a beautiful, peaceful oasis right in your backyard with just a few easy DIY projects that won't break the bank.
For a fun, whimsical project, Beautiful Homes & Gardens recommends making a miniature succulent garden. Here's how: Arrange low-maintenance succulents in a shallow container along with tiny decorations like a miniature arbour, chair, cat figurine or wheelbarrow to mimic a desert landscape.
To keep your gardening tools in top shape, Beautiful Homes & Gardens suggests this simple DIY tool cleaning station. Replace any broken tools, then make a bucket of sand mixed with oil. Plunging your tools into this sand mixture will prevent rust and eliminate tedious end-of-season scrubbing.
As per Beautiful Homes & Gardens, terrariums are a wonderful way to invite some green into your home year-round. To make one, place small plants or mosses in a glass container. Terrariums thrive in well-lit indoor spaces away from direct heat sources.
