Bring the color
If you want to stop your backyard looking drab or all the same, then pops of color are your best way to bring a little excitement into the mix. Sometimes the idea of adding color, especially lots of different ones, can be daunting to design newbies.
Following a few simple rules can make the process a lot easier. Sticking to the same color but in different shades. Choose a shade of blue, for example, for each area, but the common root color will pull everything together.
