Look for vertical space and make use of it for gardening. This could be in the form of a garden on the wall of the fence. You can use things like pockets, hanging planters, or even trellises to achieve this.

I recommend this type of garden decor project if you don’t have much ground space. It can be in front of your home, by the side, or in the backyard.

2. Mosaic Stepping Stones

If you observe any garden that has this type of project, you can notice the texture, color, and overall aesthetic appeal it adds to the garden.

Birds see bath foundations as a source of water and it is natural for them to flock around spaces where such projects are cited.  You will even feel happy seeing them perching around on your farm.
