Gardening with pleasure:6 tips

The days are getting longer and the sun is showing itself more and more. So far, spring seems to bode well for the coming summer. Weeks with plenty of opportunity to work in the garden! With these tips you ensure that gardening remains not only useful, but above all fun and enjoyable.

1. Get everything you need
Of course you need everything to enjoy gardening. To be able to work undisturbed, it is easy to have everything at home. From garden tools such as scissors, shovels and rakes to work clothes such as gloves or a black ladies dungaree from Engelbert Strauss. As long as you have everything within reach, you can get started in the garden as soon as you feel like it!

2. Get some inspiration
Take a few hours off to get some inspiration from online living books or magazines. Bring all ideas together in a cool mood board. This way you know exactly which direction you want to take with the garden this year.

3. Do it together
Working together is often more fun than working alone. Especially when there are jobs on the schedule that you don't really like, it is nice to tackle this together. Invite friends over for a fun day out in the garden – concluded with a nice barbecue, of course.

4. Bring some color to the garden
A beautiful garden is a garden where you like to be; and therefore also a garden that you enjoy gardening in. Bring some color to the garden to make it a pleasant, atmospheric place. Plant both spring and autumn bloomers to enjoy a colorful garden all year round.

5. Decorating here too
It is allowed to decorate not only inside, but also outside the house. Perhaps one of the nicest jobs in the garden is dressing and creating atmosphere in the area. Nice and warm fleece blankets, comfortable chair cushions and fun, colorful decoration materials make the garden a pleasant place.

6. Roll up your sleeves
Of course you can buy everything, but sometimes it's just more fun to do it yourself. Find some fun DIY projects for the garden and get creative. Not only fun to do, but the end result is also more satisfying.
