When it comes to the garden you may be one of those people that either love spending time in it, preening and changing things, or one of those people that don’t like to work in it.
But most people would like to use the space more often if they had it.
So what can you do to encourage that? I thought I would share some ideas to help you get started.

One of the first things you could consider doing would be to make sure your lawn is cared for.
The lawned area of a garden can take up a lot of space, and so if it looks untidy and messy then it can give off that effect for the rest of the garden.
Plus a manicured lawn can be used for all sorts of fun and activities when short. It could be the ideal working-out space or a place for children to have fun and play.
Many people like to do different things outside, so it shouldn't be a surprise that a patio and a decked area can be a great way to utilize your outdoor space.
A bit of furniture can make all of the difference and enable you to drink and socialize in your garden, eat al fresco, and perhaps even invest in a BBQ where you cook up glorious summer meals in the evening.
Do you have any areas of your garden that you don’t use?
Perhaps a pool area that isn’t utilized enough or a piece of grass that just gets muddy in the winter? It is time to make more use of the space that you have.
Looking into things like concrete pool resurfacing or an artificial lawn could help you get more use out of the space that you have. Changing the use of areas will help you to use the garden more often.
Transform your garden into a more inviting and lively space by considering the addition of charming chicks.
Creating a designated area or coop for these delightful birds adds a touch of whimsy to your garden and contributes to a dynamic outdoor atmosphere.
From the playful antics of chicks to the educational opportunities they provide, their presence enhances the overall enjoyment of your garden.
Incorporating these feathered companions ensures that your garden becomes a haven for plants and delightful and interactive experiences.
It may sound like such a standard thing to do, but keeping your garden tidy can make it look and feel like a more usable space.
Whether you have garden tools or perhaps children have toys they like to play with, investing in some outdoor storage buildings could mean that you have a place to put them when the time is right to tidy them away.
Helping your garden and outdoor area to feel much larger than it might be.
Not all of us are amazing gardeners, and some of us can struggle with plants and even keeping a lawn tidy and short. So don’t feel bad for faking certain aspects of your garden.
Whether that is pots that you have outside of your door, a hanging basket that always looks in bloom, manicured bushes, or even a fake grassed lawn.
Do what feels right for you so you make the most of your space.
So there you have it, my tips to help you use your garden more often.
