Garden and vegetable garden design with fruit trees and stone figurines

If you are the happy owner of a land plot or a luxurious garden near the house, you will certainly be interested to know about how to create an original design of a garden and garden with your own hands... There are many ways to decorate the territory, but the most interesting thing is that you can do it with the help of improvised means, and it will turn out beautifully and with a "twist".

We begin to translate the invented landscape design into reality!

If there are trees on your site, do not rush to cut them down, firstly, homemade fruits are more useful than store fruits, and secondly, trees can be correctly included in landscape design.

In their lace shade, you can equip a recreation area: install a gazebo or hang a hammock, near which there must be stone figures of animals - this is a symbol of success and wealth.

If you are just going to plant trees, give preference to fruit trees. Flowers do not grow well under conifers, so it will not work to combine Christmas trees with roses. The best option is to divide the site into functional zones: for flowers, trees, rest, barbecue and friendly gatherings with friends.

Each zone needs to be decorated accordingly, and if there is no way to invite a designer, you will have to come up with everything yourself. There can be a lot of ideas. Consider the most versatile, those that are suitable for any garden and vegetable garden. We bring to your attention a master class on making stone figurines.

Landscaping of a garden plot with original figures

Animal figurines that will be a great addition to manicured lawns, decorative stones and neat trees. Whatever landscape design of the garden you choose, decorative figures will complement it.

So, let's make a frog. We need:

• Cement mix
• Green dye for cement
• Frog shape (you can buy at a hardware store or take a mold for cake and other baked goods)
• Glue
• Sponge
• Stacks for modeling
• Old bucket
• Wooden lath
• Screwdriver
• Paper
• For decoration: pieces of tiles or broken glass
• For safety: rubber gloves, respirator and goggles

Getting started

1. Put a quarter of the dry mixture in a bag, mix the rest in a bucket with water and dye until the consistency of thick sour cream.
2. Put the mixture in a plastic mold and tamp well. After filling the form halfway, shake, tap on it to release air bubbles.
3. After filling out the form completely, remove the remaining mortar with a wooden strip. Leave for a few hours, and when the solution begins to turn into stone, line the future frog with stacks. Leave to dry for 2 days.
4. Then place a plank under the bottom and carefully turn it over, remove the mold.
5. Use a flat screwdriver to remove the stone build-up from the sides.
6. Now it's up to the little: decorate the frog. The eyes can be made of colored stones, the back can be decorated with broken glass - all this is glued to the glue.
7. From the mixture poured at the beginning of the work, make a solution and fill the gaps between the glass with it. Use a sponge to remove excess mortar from the glass mosaic.

The stone is ready - let it brew for a week, and you can safely introduce the craft into the landscape design of the garden plot. You can make several such crafts and decorate the garden around the perimeter with them or plant frogs at the beginning of the path leading to the house - sea options.

The beauty of your site!

In conclusion, I would like to say that the beauty of the landscape design of the territory directly depends on your imagination. There are different types of garden designs, but it is very important to single out one and not mix styles. For example, if you liked the classic with smoothly trimmed lawns and stone columns, stick to it in every detail. But if you decide to decorate the territory with your own hands, try to do every little thing with love!
