Make garden decorations in the country house style yourself

Garden decorations from the kitchen

cutlery

Turn it old silver cutlery and attach it as a door handle to the garden gate or the wooden fence.

Kitchen sieves

Hang old kitchen strainers in the tree on a cord and put a flowering plant in them. However, there should not be a place to sit underneath, as soil or dripping water could trickle out of the sieve. You can also make impressive hanging baskets from kitchen sieves.

Everyday objects

Beautiful climbing aid

1. Separate the frame of an umbrella from the fabric.
2. Put the umbrella in a flower bed.
3. Leave climbing plants such as one Clematis to climb up the frame.

Disused things

Old paint or tin cans find new uses as lanterns.

1. Cut small holes in the sheet metal just above the bottom of the can.
2. With a little skill you can also cut out flowers or other motifs.
3. Drill two small holes further up the can.
4. Thread a cord through it.
5. Put a tealight in the jar.
6. Hang the lantern in a tree or use the handicraft as a table decoration.

Natural material

Small wall

By stacking natural stones on top of each other, you build a small partition wall for the garden. This could, for example, separate the lawn from the vegetable garden. Incidentally, insects often use small gaps between the stones as shelter.

Pasture fences

Willow fits into every cottage garden. The young branches can be bent easily. In this way you can create impressive wickerwork that can be used as Border or serve as privacy screens.

Tree roots

Tree roots should not be disposed of under any circumstances. Even rotten wood looks nice when you simply integrate it into the bed. Let it be overgrown with moss.
