6 Upgrades that Will Transform Your Backyard into a Spa Heaven

In this time of concrete jungles, having an outdoor area you can call your own really means a lot.

However, if your backyard is simply covered with grass with some cheap summer furniture, it won’t quite offer you a lot in terms of relaxation and unwinding.

On the other hand, the fact that you have a backyard means that you have the complete freedom to decorate the area as you see fit.

Now, in today’s hectic environment and with the busy lifestyles we all seem to be leading, turning your backyard into a peace and serenity-fostering oasis seems like the only right way to go.

So, let’s see what you can do to transform your backyard into a relaxation hub where you’ll be able to indulge your senses and let all the worries of the day simply drift off.

Think about the design

Before you actually start decorating your backyard, you should first try to determine the design you wish to go for.

Here, you need to think about whether or not you wish to divide your backyard into smaller areas, lay down the pathways, create flower beds and so on. Once you decide on the desired style, you should move on to determining the layout.

Determine the layout

Now that you know all the elements and areas you wish to have in your backyard, you should try to find the best location for them.

What this means is that you need to decide, for example, whether you want your seating area to be located on your porch or rather moved to the back end of your backyard.

Once you have a clear layout in mind, it’s time to get down to business.

The seating area

The patio is the best place to create a seating area for a couple of reasons. First, if you create a seating area on your patio, your outdoor furniture will be protected against the direct effect of elements.

Next, it will be closer to your actual home which will make fetching things significantly easier.

Now, the prettier the area you manage to put together, the more time you’ll want to spend enjoying it. Therefore, go for sturdy faux wicker furniture and add some comfortable seating pillows.

Additionally, you can take the whole design up a notch and add colorful throw pillows and blankets for some extra comfort, sheer curtains and fairy lights for a touch of romance, as well as a soft outdoor area rug to tie the entire design together.

The barbecue area

Since you’ve already created a comfortable seating, your next step should be creating a place designated for preparing food.

If you already have a backyard, why not enjoy it to the fullest and take some of your everyday activities outdoors.
First, make sure you get a sturdy grill that’s big enough for your food prep needs.

Next, decide on the design of the barbecue stand. You can even choose to make it look like an outdoor fireplace so that you can arrange your outdoor furniture around it whenever the weather allows it.

This way, not only will you be able to prepare some delicious food here during the day, but you’ll also be able to enjoy a cozy outdoor living room during the evening.

An area designated for luxury

No matter the size of your backyard and no matter the budget you’ve set aside for giving your backyard a facelift, you absolutely have to have an area that will allow you to pamper yourself a bit.

Therefore, determine the right place in your backyard and check out beautiful swim spas online to find your perfect match.

Once it’s installed, beautify the area further by surrounding your swim spa with colorful flowers, install a shade sail that will not only allow you to enjoy your spa even when the sun is high in the sky, but that will also offer some privacy from prying eyes and add some cool lights to truly set the mood.

Finishing touches

Finally, once all of the bigger projects are finished, it’s time to implement the finishing touches. These include planting the flowers, taking care of lawn, laying out the pathways and illuminating your backyard.

As far as plants and flowers are concerned, you can either plant them directly in the ground or you can opt to plant them in planters and pots which will allow you to rearrange them once you get bored with their current layout.

For pathways, the most common choices involve pebble-covered pathways, concrete pathways or natural stone pathways.

The last ones are the easiest to maintain while concrete pathways are arguably the least pleasing to the eye.

When it comes to outdoor lighting, solar lights are the best way to go except for the areas where you need stronger illumination – there, you should go with LED lights.

As you can see, putting together a beautiful backyard is really easy, as long as you plan everything out and decide on the aesthetic you wish to go for.

Everything else you should choose according to your personal taste and preferences, while focusing on the maximum comfort.
