Designing and owning a magical home space is often something we as parents dream of, but it’s much harder to implement in reality. This almost goes without saying. We can imagine the Disney princesses of fame having to maintain the golden gardens they usually achieve at the end of their tales, and the fantasy usually falls.

Of course, it’s not impossible to achieve, especially when it comes to our gardens. The summer is proving to be better than ever from a weather perspective, and we’d be silly to ignore the potential that can bring. You might have been thinking about starting some home developments lately, but the heat and summer sun has made any progress on this front stifle just a little bit.




Why not develop your garden? It’s often the place that people ignore the most when it comes to home renovation, but some tasteful additions and maintenance can arguably make it look better than any inside room could. Not only that, but you'll be able to craft your outdoor space into a magical place for your kids, where they can bring friends around, and you can entertain in the evening.


Here are a few handy tips to make your garden look magical, just as it deserves.


Outdoor Lighting


Outdoor lighting allows for a range of subtle setups and allows you to implement various ‘themes’ around the area that can blossom at different times of day. For example, having weather resistant moon candles that can change their color by remote control can help you add a sense of visual variance depending on what mood you’re in that evening. It’s not hard to imagine that a deep purple lighting can bring your garden the aura of mystery that can make it look simply divine.


If you want to make your garden look even more magical, why not line the garden pathways from your door with this lighting? At night, you can believe that the whole outdoor space will transform into a gorgeous fantasy setting.


A Fairy Pond


Why not build a pond in your garden space? If you already have one, having it maintained and cleaned and maybe placing some decoration around it, or keeping appropriate fish depending on water acidity, and temperature can help give your garden that ‘alive,’ feel. To keep the pond a regular fixture that you don’t give up on after a month or two, it’s important to learn about and purchase the correct pond maintenance equipment.

Regal Pathways


A woman’s home is her castle, and as far as you’re concerned, within its borders, you are the ruling monarch. Why not implement ‘regal pathways’ that look gorgeous, and have a spark of creativity? You might achieve this by creatively applying mismatched, broken terracotta slabs and embedding them into the garden space. They could run for your outdoor patio area down the length of the garden so muddy grass can be avoided in bad weather if needs be. A monarch must have her requirements, after all.



It’s always fun to add a touch of fantasy in your daily life. Why should that be different when it comes to your home?
