8 Spring transformation ideas for your outdoor space

Kick off your boots and pack away your bomber jacket, as spring has finally sprung and we’re getting ready to embrace the warmer season. With the rising temperatures, we’ll soon want to spend more time outside.

So, are you ready to give your outdoor area a spring make over? Then get inspired by the following ideas.

1. It’s time for a BBQ cook-off!

BBQ

As the evenings are getting less chilly, now is a great time to get yourself a barbecue, so you can host a BBQ feast for your family or friends. Who could say no to mouth-watering snags and grilled cheese?

If you have limited space available, a portable or kettle barbecue is a good choice. If space is not an issue, why not go with a gas smoker or a charcoal grill for authentic wood flavour or even invest in a pizza oven?

2. Leave a light on

Lights

Enjoying a BBQ with you friends in the evening isn’t much fun if you don’t have outdoor lights installed and can barely see each other. Luckily there are plenty of options when it comes to outdoor light fixtures such as LED string lights, path lighting, flood lights, motion sensor lighting, fairy lights and more. Fallon Solutions are lighting experts, so if you’re considering to have outdoor lights installed at your property, give us a call.

The warmer weather is a great excuse to get out and get on the tools to work on DIY garden projects. A pallet sofa is not only a stylish and unique piece of outdoor furniture, it’s also cheap and easy to build and suitable for smaller spaces. Here’s how it works .

4. All fun and games

Keeping the kids entertained while you’re relaxing can be easy if you have a playground in your backyard. Create a fun space for them by setting up classic play equipment such as a sand pit, a cubby house, a swing and a slide or a pool for some water action.

5. Grow with the flow

Are you a garden enthusiast? Then slip on your gardening gloves, because spring is your season to shine (and grow). It’s the perfect time to set up a veggie garden, to plant flowers and to start growing herbs. If you don’t’ have a lot of space available, there’s always the option of growing a vertical garden

A bird feeder brings all the birds to the yard

A bird feeder or a bird bath is a fantastic way of getting all kinds of birds to hang out in your garden. Bird feeders don’t take up much space and can easily be hung from the ceiling of your balcony or from a tree. With a bird bath not far from the food source, you can be sure that some of them will drink, frolic and bathe.

7. Hang a hammock or a hanging chair

When the sun is shining and you’re listening to the birds while relaxing in a cosy hammock or hanging chair, slowly swinging back and forth, life can’t get much better. Need I say more?

8. Ain’t no fountain high enough
