A backyard is a place of social gatherings and relaxation, but sometimes it can be very dull to look at. Most backyards have greens and browns covered but need some real color to spark it to life.

Getting that color into our yard may seem easy, but it isn’t always a simple swap. What you need are some positive home gardening tips to splash that color back into your life.

Here are our top 5 for a quick and easy boost in your vibrancy. 

The Home Gardening Tips for Bombastic Color

A variety of color comes in many things and places. Good, vibrant colors can do a lot of things for mood and emotions. Yet most backyards have green grass and grey concrete. It is time to put some color into the boring basics. 

1. Bright Sculptures

Art is a great tool for adding both a bit of class and a bit of vibrancy to your home. Where paintings do well hung up inside, sculptures can do wonders outdoors.

Modern art, in particular, loves vibrant primary colors and weird shapes. Adding a sculpture brimming with color and odd design gives both a spot of color and an interesting talking piece for parties.

2. Recycled Glass

Concrete slabs are the standard and hardwood is nice, but there is a better and more colorful way to build a patio. That is using recycled glass. 

Glass can come in all sorts of colors. Many places can offer recycled glass in a kaleidoscope of designs. You can even dye some to whatever pattern or color you want.

3. New Paint for Lawn Furniture

Why have regular, basic colored lawn furniture when you can paint them in vibrant colors. Working with the set of furniture you have, or buying brand new ones, lets you keep the function while turning up the style. 

4. Exotic Plants

If you prefer the more garden route, there are hundreds of plant types that can give beautiful colors, either through their flowers or leaves. If you want to try out your green thumb, you can grow an entire rainbow of color.

Be mindful of what each plant requires. Don’t get a plant only for its color. You may not be in the right climate for it to live. Decaying brown is not a good color for your yard. 

5. Pool Tiles

Pools tend to have a vibrant effect on a backyard. A lot of this is the bright blue water shining in the sun. Another aspect that helps is the pool tiles.

Pool tiles can often come in bright, tropical colors. Even if you don’t have a pool, they can made for great patio additions or small sections. 

Be careful of putting smooth pool tiles on places where people walk. They often don’t have the right traction for careful footing. 

The Right Job, The Right Price

All of these projects can be the right punch that your yard needs to be colorful and fun again. For some, a DIY spirit can help get it done. For others, they may need help.

You will need a contractor. Finding the best one can be difficult, but doing your research on rates and quality can save you lots of trouble.
