Decorating your garden might be one of your favorite past times, or maybe it’s something you dread but you just know needs to be done! As you well know, the trends change every year and new things become in while old things become out.
Most likely, the methods you used for your garden last year just won’t really work this year. Before you go and dig up the whole garden, know that you can probably make small adjustments to get your garden in tune with 2021 garden decoration trends.
We’ve put together some details about the top trends to help you out!
1. Take it Boho
No matter who you are, Boho themes will always be in. There are definite ways to keep your boho style up-to-date by making some minor changes. If this is a theme you’ve gone with in the past, just update a few parts and pieces to your style in check.
The nice thing about this style and so many other trends we will share, is that you can do a lot by hand. If you’re into DIY projects, be sure to look up options and put that to use. If you want to get some new tools for your projects, checking out tool reviews is a great way to do so.
Boho style takes on a bit of a Bohemian feel, using things like wicker and rattan as well as colorful patterns that mix and blend together. You can also install stone outdoor fountains to complete the look.
You can mix and match different pieces and back it all up with something neutral to pull it together.
2. Make it Cozy
One of the best ways to be on trend for garden decorating in 2021 is to keep it cozy. Set your gardening space up to be welcoming and inviting rather than focusing on staying with a very specific trend. Some of these can be harsh and uncomfortable.
Unless your garden space is truly just for looks, why make it something that you can’t truly enjoy?
To keep it cozy, find pieces that look welcoming and comforting. This could be the perfect opportunity to add a hammock to your space. In a cozy design, you will probably go with simple colors and patterns. It’s common for cozy decoration to steer towards more neutral selections overall.
The key here is to be warm and inviting. Whether you choose to use a hammock or some comfortable chairs, this is simple to accomplish. The good news is that you don’t have to worry as much about modern design and whether you’re truly keeping up with the Joneses.
3. Beachy Style
Why not bring a little bit of the beach right to your back yard? Everyone loves the beach and this trend will probably never get old. If you don’t live anywhere near the beach, this is the best way to enjoy the beach from home. Even if you live near a beach, it’s still nice to have a bright and beachy appeal at home!
The beachy style uses light tones all around. From light wood grain colors to light décor that is mostly white, tans, and lighter shades of blue, you can’t go wrong. Think of sunshine and blue skies and use style that fills in with those elements.
You can choose furniture that is beachy. When it comes to furniture, we recommend lounging pieces. Beachy is all about bright and lazy at the same time. If you spent a day on the beach, you would be lounging in the sunshine so re-create that appeal, right in your very own garden.
4. Keep it Simple
Sometimes, less is really more. This has become a more and more popular trend and we think it will continue to be on point through 2021. You’ve probably seen the movement of getting rid of junk and stuff that isn’t relevant to your joy.
You can take a similar approach to your garden. You want the details to be perfect but limit the details and focus more on the quality and the aesthetic appeal overall. If you’re trying to figure out what to plant, try grasses and leafy plants and then add light splashes of color.
Take a similar approach with your garden décor and furniture. Choose simple pieces that are not overstated but compliment the simplicity of your garden space. Use neutral tones and don’t overdo it. In fact, in this trend, your floral and grass might be enough and you could use limited décor apart from your furniture and basic accessories.
5. Support the Wildlife
One of the best things about the garden is it’s a natural place and there are natural elements in that place. Wildlife from various amphibians and reptiles to insects and maybe even a few rodents might find themselves at home in your garden.
Make sure your space conducive to supporting the natural wildlife. Choose flowers and plants that butterflies and bees can benefit from. Choose a space that gives a habitat to those bunnies you see every year in the garden.
Your location might make a difference in the wildlife that you support or that you want to support. Study the area and know what birds and insects and other wildlife of the area might benefit from and work from there.
This is a beautiful way to give back to nature. You can also add things like bird feeders as part of your décor and choose furniture and space for decorative pieces that won’t harm or impact the wildlife as well.
Conclusion
No matter what your personal style is, you can find a way to incorporate that into a new and popular trend for 2021. You don’t have to change everything to stay with the trends but you certainly can if you like.
We hope that one of these trends will appeal to you and that you can make it your own to invite a beautiful garden space to enjoy in 2021 and beyond.
