1. Start with laying some fake grass. There is nothing wrong with the fake stuff, especially if you’re short on time. Be aware that it can get extremely hot in the sun, though, so get the gorgeous lawn you want but wear sandals. It doesn't take long to install, and it means you’re not using water to keep it looking lush when you shouldn't be!
2. You can install some storage into your garden and create some extra space for being tidy. It can be bike and toy storage and even a potting shed if you need one, but you should choose to get your garden as tidy as possible and garden storage is going to get you there.
3. You need your garden to be organized if you want to feel proud of your space. You can do it with pots in the garden to keep the flowers organized, and you can even upcycle the existing plant pots with spray paint and stencils.
4. Get the strimmer out and edge the lawn. You need to tidy the edges if you want the garden to look good, and you can give your lawn some structure this way. You can even add some wavy lines and some bright gravel to make the whole space feel welcoming.
5. Upcycle where you can. If you have old garden furniture, give it a lick of paint. You can get the gutters cleared out, too, as those will need to have sufficient drainage from those summer showers you know you can expect.
6. If you don't want to upcycle - or you have the budget to do it - go and get some new furniture pieces for the space. You can replace it with some stylish rattan pieces and go for something more on trend. You wont regret it!
7. Set up a sprinkler system and make it automatic. Of course, if you’ve installed some fake grass you won’t need to do this, but if you have real grass you can make this healthy and beautiful all summer long.
8. String some fairy lights through the garden and really light it up. It can look beautiful and sparkly all at once and you get the benefit of evening twinkles! 

Make your garden beautiful this summer with these tips: it’s a great place to start.
