The Legacy Paver group was asked to install pavers for the HGTV Dream house in Sonoma. Hayley collaborated with the Team on a design to fit the house. The choice of two driving strips instead of a solid driveway is very attractive and suits the neighborhood.

Garden for Plant Lovers - self build

Rachel Bailey Garden Design Ltd

A garden for plant lovers was designed for a professional couple in the front (and only) garden of their lower villa conversion. The garden was designed on an angle, taken from the angles of the bay windows of the house, which not only offered depth to the garden, but also connected the garden to the house. The lawn was replaced by planting beds edged in beautiful clay pavers (Vande Moortel), which were also used to create the patio. The clay pavers toned in perfectly with the existing brick boundary wall and the buff sandstone of the house. An additional seating area was created looking through the beautifully made metal archway from Made by More. The planting scheme for the existing borders was redesigned to connect with the overall scheme of the garden and were replanted summer 2019 (after these photos were taken). Rachel Bailey Garden Design Ltd designed the garden and the planting scheme and sourced planted from Macplants.co.uk and Maclarens Nurseries. The garden was built and planted up by the clients.

Vancouver Low-Maintenance Entertaining

Valley View Landworks

This young family, with busy lives including sports, professions and travel... needed an easy to upkeep front, back and side yards. Weeds and forgotten yard toys piled high, we cleaned everything up and installed this simple solution to easy outdoor family time. The kids love the fire pit, while Mom and Dad enjoy only 10 minutes of focused, front yard mowing. SIde yards are for storage and only need a light weed spraying once in a while. Bamboo is growing to buffer their investment from a busy residential through-street bordering the backyard.

Pacific Garden Design

Tucked away on a large, private lot, this home's landscape disguises the fact that it is in the middle of an urban neighborhood. The homeowner is an avid gardener, and the landscape is constantly evolving as he puts his touch on the plants and new phases of the master plan are implemented. The entry is lushly planted, offering a welcoming array of shapes and colors. The trees and shrubs further privatize the space as they mature.

Get Inspired by Arts and Crafts Gardens on Houzz

A lot of the time when you get home from a long day at work, all you want to do is wind down. Where better to do this than in your very own arts and crafts garden at home? If you do it right, a great garden design can send you right into holiday mode. But where to start? There’s so many styles to choose from when it comes to garden design. Whether you want to create a tropical, modern, contemporary, beach style or country garden - or something else entirely - the large garden image gallery on Houzz has got you covered. Get inspired and collect your ideas to narrow down your desired garden style and features.

How to Create an Arts and Crafts Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes an arts and crafts garden and if it’s appropriate for your climate. You may want to consider adding a deck or other landscaping features, but the plants you choose will mostly dictate your style and what kind of ongoing maintenance is required. Don’t worry if your backyard isn’t very spacious - there are many plants that can thrive even in a small space and allow you to turn your space into a little paradise of your own, regardless of size.

Decide which plants to use

The greenery you choose is critical to your look. For example, if you’re trying to create a tropical garden palm trees and bamboo are your go-to options. Other popular options are golden cane palm trees and fern for ground cover. From there you can add some colour with bright flowers like frangipani, hibiscus or bromeliads. All these are actually quite hardy plants, so once established, your tropical garden is actually quite easy to maintain. Use this structure and apply it to your style. Research which plants you need to set your base for an arts and crafts garden and go from there.

Add some decor

If the plants don’t quite do it for you yet, or if you want to add some extra wow-factor, consider adding some extra features. Even if you can’t accommodate a swimming pool, hot tub or pond, you could look at smaller water features. Simple rocks can also have a great effect, while statues and gnomes will add some extra character. Don’t forget to add some furniture so you have a nice place to sit and enjoy your garden!

Need some help?

Once you know what you want your garden to look like, it may be hard to make it a reality on your own. If that is the case for you, consider consulting a professional to help you with your arts and crafts garden design. Every photo you find on Houzz will lead you to the local pro that did the job, so you won’t have a problem picking the perfect person to help! Whether you need a gardener in Brisbane, a landscape architect in Melbourne or a fireplace installer in Sydney, you can be sure to find one on Houzz.
