Whether it's painting an old shelf, getting smarter with what and how you grow or repurposing old items, find out how you can save money without skimping on style.

So, are you ready to give your garden a new life? Try these simple garden ideas on a budget, perfect for patios or gardens of any size ...

Grow from seed

Without a doubt, the cheapest way to get a thriving garden is by planting. Whether it's flower or vegetable seeds, remember to check the size of the seed packet, as some seeds contain many more seeds than you could sow in a year in an average garden.

Use yard containers

No grass? Container gardening is a really easy way to make your garden beautiful with flowers and is especially great for patios, porches, or other paved areas. Remember that containers can restrict root growth, so ensure an even water supply and good drainage, and choose the right compost.

Repurpose old furniture as planters

One of the most profitable garden ideas is to simply recycle. You can give old and tired furniture in your home a new life in the garden. Old sinks and dressers can be turned into quirky vases or you can use palettes.

Transform your space with lights

Outdoor lights offer a quick, simple, and inexpensive way to bring a beautiful glow to a patio and beyond, and there are many styles available. Solar garden lights are popular, or you can go for external battery-powered lights, including string lights and lanterns.

Start a vegetable garden

Embrace the Grow Your Own trend, even in the smallest spaces, and save a lot of money in the process. Just isolate a section of your garden, prepare the soil, and plant some greens. Besides being a great addition to your garden, it will have its own supply of tasty greens!

Reuse plastic bottles

Plastic water bottles take an average of 1000 years to biodegrade, so avoid throwing them away and reusing them. They are ideal for the garden as they are great alternative pots. Just cut one side, fill it with compost, and plant seedlings, then hang it up with a sturdy rope.
