A beautiful garden is never done in haste. The key to the beauty of the garden – it is always the quality of the raw materials and the quality of all elements of the garden. All these components, unfortunately, are not cheap. How can that be? Secrets will share our expert Olga Voronova.

Professionals know the tricks to saving when building a garden now and you know it. They will help you save money and achieve your goal of a beautiful, stylish garden with a minimum cost.

 





Secret 1. Conduct market analysis
Proposals of any goods and building materials are now a huge number, hard to navigate, information is lost, slipping away, the result is not produced by a single solution. How do you know where to buy? Fix information. Make yourself a special plate! Vertically you will have a list of building materials, plants and accessories that interest you. And the horizontal line the list of the companies that sell it all. Call the company and price data recorded in this table. Can also make the column "notes" where you will celebrate various additional features of the products. So all the information is at hand, and you will always be able to compare prices and choose the best option.

 

Secret 2. Low price sometimes dangerous
The paradox lies in the fact that very cheap is not always good. Not knowingly buy substandard materials, this will lead to repairs, alterations, and as a result, to the replacement of these materials. And if, say, you bought bunk poor quality, then you will need additional materials, in order to "disguise" the appearance of the lining. So if you're not taking directly from the manufacturer, too low price should guard. Waste and rejects are a dime, which then turn into thousands of rubles for alteration.

 





Secret 3. Replacement materials
Not necessarily conform to stereotypes. Of course, accepted, and often happens that some object is performed from these materials. Well, for example, what is the roof of the gazebo? Options: galvanizing, metal, KATEPAL. It is − as a rule. And you can create your own rules, and make, for example, from polycarbonate. Or, suppose you can use for the construction of the bath is not "logs", and ordinary beams, even the cheapest. And to finish the surface blockhouse.

 

 





Secret 4. Combining
Different materials together is an interesting decision, and a lot cheaper. Designers know it. Diverse experience in our perception are formed and are mutually reinforcing. Does not matter how much of this material, it is important that he is. Monotony, as a rule, it doesn't, it's very simple. Any detail of your garden will look fresh and unusual, if you combine different materials. In the construction and decoration of the house you can combine wood, stone and siding. For recreation area combine timber, stone and forged elements. For flower beds use the stone and gravel, or brick and wood. BBQ fit combination of wood, ceramics, stone and forged elements. The designs are always appropriate inserts mosaic, glass elements, and the construction of paths number of different materials may reach six or seven.





Secret 5. Cheap material can turn into expensive
This can be done by mind, produced the impression. Cheap material (but, of course, high quality!) plus a little imagination and ingenuity add up to a decent, interesting material, which will not buy. For example, the usual timber. Not curiosity. Decorate the rest area, probably, do not want to. Build from it – Yes. And what about the idea to use it as a decoration... But if the same timber, decorated with carving and positioning is unusual, for example, angle – then quite another matter!





Secret 6. Prolong the service life of materials
Nature, of course, no bad weather. Only here the materials of construction do not think so. In our climate there are spring, winter, summer and autumn; snow, rain, frost and wind. All this contributes to the durability of even the best materials. Save the money invested! Use protection materials: impregnated, fungicide, paints, quality paint, lubricants, paints and coatings against rust, coatings for stone and concrete. If you do not, for example, protect the wood and do not use the impregnation, and to be limited to just primer and paint, it will stand on the strength of 5 years in our climate, then we need restoration or replacement. But the correct treatment increases the durability of the material up to 10-15 years. The cost of protective materials can not be comparable to the cost of reconstruction and especially of the replacement.

 

 





Secret 7. If the defect cannot be hidden – don't hide it, because it is your dignity
What will be the cost of remedying the defect, count! For example, if you have a steep slope, then, of course, you can try to align. But it is so difficult technically, requires a huge amount of materials and equipment that the cost of such a levelling of the slope will be for you, not even "Golden" and "diamond". You need it? For the money spent you could build on the site all you need and purchase all your desired plants, so think about the appropriateness of such spending. But this slope can give you the opportunity to build a fantastic viewing platform on stilts.

 

 





Secret 8. New – well forgotten old
Breaking old means to build new. Maybe to avoid all these costs? Ugly buildings: barns, sheds, wells, wells, gas boxes, woodshed, and other buildings, too, can be successful to disguise, say, the same plants. But one of the best methods, especially when all these buildings already have – turn them into design objects. Indeed, they can be built in place, plants them not to hide, but it is comfortable, sturdy structure. From the point of view of a practical master, to break such is not necessary. Just need to decorate.

 

The secret 9. Bet on plants
To achieve in the garden significant savings without loss of quality, that is the beauty of the garden, it is better to count on the plants. Plants are significantly cheaper than any materials. So better, for example, to design a huge rest area with rich decor, which will be a lot of materials and labor, and to concentrate on the creation of flower beds and plant compositions and decorate the existing buildings with conifers, shrubs and flowers. The more that are alive always effectively lifeless. Think about it: plants are beautiful and the gazebo, but the gazebo, lonely standing in a "pure field", without a single plant nearby – is it attractive?

 





Secret 10. Choose plants that will help you save
Don't need exotic bet on local, low-maintenance plants. They are no less beautiful, and most importantly, they do not need to be replaced, they don't need to pay much attention, they don't need to buy additional fertilizers and means of protection. Exotic is not justified. And, you may not know about undemanding plants for the garden easy care. They are sometimes so exotic! What do you say, for example, pink calendula, black tulips or gladiolus green? In addition to decorative garden flowers you can use in the design of your garden of wild flowers, of course, choosing the beautiful ones. In some landscape styles, they are essential. And in General, selective use of wild flowers gives the garden a special charm and makes your garden even more "easy".

 

 





The secret 11. Use the "gifts" of your garden
Carefully inspect your plot and everything beyond. What plants do you see? If a plant came to you itself is a pleasant surprise. Here, for example, incomprehensible thicket of some strange plants and the most "interesting" place. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that here they are really out of place, but plants are rare, are difficult to get even in the nursery. What luck! The solution is obvious: carefully transplanted to a more appropriate place, and even multiply.





The secret 12. Grow plants yourself
Enough to buy at least one perennial you wish for, because you can propagate it yourself. A couple of years and you can have as many plants as you want. And if you can't buy what you want, then the only way is to grow perennials from seed. Indeed, the sale is a fairly limited selection of perennials − "greatest hits", but, say, plants "Alpines" is hard to find. But seed is always available. Growing perennials from seed you will get plants flowering in the third year. And then you can safely divide and multiply your plants. Not justified the purchase of adult trees and container plants. Better and cheaper to just buy small seedlings of trees and shrubs, they will grow quickly, and by the way, easier to take. Oh and the annuals seedlings to sow easy. Why buy seedlings of Petunia, when you can grow your own? Excess seed is also not worth buying. Collect your seeds. To buy is that if you want guaranteed to preserve the purity of varieties.

 

 





The secret 13. The cost of materials for beds is not always justified
The flower beds are different. The beauty of the flower garden is not due to the high cost of framing. There are economical options. For instance, free flower beds, where there are no fences. And if fences need not have to pay out of marble. Beautiful wrought bumpers or homemade bumpers of bent metal strip, striking a low fence. The numerous ready-made fences for beds quick Assembly. "Fencing" beds can be some interesting items dug into the ground, or simply put it on an old boat. For small beds, for example, very effective option is to use wagon-wheels. Always beautiful flowers framed by stone. But this does not mean designs! You can just impose your flower garden around beautiful stones. For decoration of flower beds you can use any stone: multi-colored Sandstone, granite, rubble stone, gravel, gravel, pebbles. But the easiest fencing option is probably to do it from the peg and rope.

 

 





Secret 14. Many of garden structures you can make with your own hands
Especially small and stylish things, which are sometimes unreasonably expensive. For example, decorative bridges do not have to buy, you can make your own. Or, say, the trellis is freestanding small pillars of different shapes. In the sale very often such designs that look like works of art. But the cost they can also, as works of art. Idea for a trellis to use as the other items, but those which are suited to the role in appearance and design. For example, large decorative balls made of branches, which are used for decorating the interior – would be a good trellis! Can also be used for this purpose, a lattice window with intricate pattern or unusual shape openwork stand of colors.

 

 





The secret 15. Any expensive accessories, you can always simulate
For example, in a Japanese-style garden plastic Japanese lanterns cannot be used. But these stone lanterns – the pleasure is very expensive, so the real option is to use a portable ceramic, and in winter take it with you or themselves to lay out a stylized flashlight limestone-Sandstone (put track) – uses small fragments of his.

 

 





The secret 16. Accents in the garden an important idea.
Don't do unnecessary work, assess whether they are necessary. The emphasis of the garden is the vivid, memorable details that add to the style of the garden and make it unique. But nowhere does it say that it must be expensive stuff. Brightness is creativity. Size of garden accents can be anything, even very small parts can give a strong impression. Accent can even be dead if you originally make it, for example, arrange it nest with the stork.
