Spring is in the air and you want to make the best of the clear blue skies and the pleasant weather to follow. This is perhaps the best time to work on the garden by taking up a do-it-yourself project. How about installing a beautiful deck in your yard to enjoy the cool evenings and entertain friends? Or creating a trellis beside the deck to lend some privacy to your yard?

Adding a garden feature gives a new dimension to your yard, especially if you already have a flourishing garden. For example, installing a deck can be a fun project that creates a staging area and lends a definition to your yard. It becomes the centre point where you can entertain friends and enjoy the summer evenings outdoors. Your deck can be a single storey extension to your house or built on two levels; you decide what is best for you.

Next comes the selection of the decking materials that you'd like to use. Wood, vinyl or composite decking materials are the various options available. You might want to get some railings for your deck and create seating arrangements. Inexpensive outdoor fabrics along with other decking materials can be used to create a privacy screen.

Depending on the positioning of your deck or patio, you might also like to create a privacy screen with a trellis. Putting up a trellis will provide some privacy to your deck without blocking the views. You can beautify your deck further by planting flowering vines alongside the deck and watch them climb up the trellis as they grow providing a lush screen.

If you'd like your deck to be a separate structure from the main house, you can have it situated in one corner or in the centre of your garden. A pathway leading to the deck from the house creates another interesting feature in your garden. Consider a gravel pathway or one with paving stones to give an effect of continuity to your home and garden.

Naturally, a flourishing lawn and garden lends its own charm to the property. Beautiful shrubbery, flowering plants and a well-manicured lawn surrounding the deck or patio is a visual treat. The upkeep of your lawn and garden is necessary to maintain its beauty which also allows you to enjoy the great outdoors right in your backyard.
