Here Are 7 Deck Ideas If You Have a Small Garden

Here are some easy ideas for creating a deck in small gardens.

1. Consider painting your decking to really make an impact.

Think “decking,” and you’re probably mentally scanning through images of wood in various natural shades. While stained wood is a great traditional choice, opting to paint your decking can really make an impression, especially in a small space. Light colors can open up the space more, while darker ones will create an atmosphere that feels more private and cozy.

2. Create a pattern of mixed plants and potted topiaries to border your deck’s seating area.

Strategic planting and a choice variety can give your garden that perfectly polished look of professional landscaping.
