Hey there Capetonians! We all know how much we love spending time outdoors, whether it’s firing up the braai with mates or chilling in the sunshine with a good book. But sometimes our backyards can look a bit, well, plain. That’s where garden accessories come in! Think of them like the finishing touches or tasteful additions for your outdoor space.
There’s a whole bunch of awesome stuff out there, from funky statues (think Buddha chilling under a Palm tree) to calming water features and fire pits that’ll keep you warm on those chilly evenings. These aren’t your average garden gnomes though – you can find things in all sorts of styles and colours to match your vibe, and best of all, they’re completely customisable!
Now, where do you put all this cool stuff?
There are two main ways to use garden accessories. The first is to make them the main attraction, like a giant fire bowl that’ll be the star of your next braai. This works especially well in smaller spaces, where a water feature trickling away on a paved patio will instantly jazz things up. Paving come in all sorts of colours and styles too, so you can create a space that’s as unique as you are.
If you’ve got a bit more room to play with, you can use accessories to add some extra oomph to an existing focal point. Think of a built-in braai area – a nearby water feature will add a touch of zen, while a quirky statue tucked away in a flower bed amongst your paving will give your garden a personal touch.
No matter what you choose, remember, garden accessories are all about making your outdoor space your own. So go wild, pick and choose what you like, and get creative! Your braai area will be the envy of the whole neighbourhood in no time!
