A Quiet Spot In The Garden

My garden is my favorite place to go relax. I love to sit in a quiet spot in or near the garden and unwind if I’ve had a big, or stressful day.
It doesn’t take much to set up a quiet spot in the garden. You already have nature all around you to help you relax.
What can you add to your garden to help make it your relaxation oasis?
- My favorite spot in the garden is a comfortable bench.
- A hammock makes a nice place to take a rest in the garden. I think I’d love one of those hammock swings.
- Add a water feature, both fountains and ponds are relaxing and soothing. Let the sound of the water and the birds wash over you.
- Set up a grape arbor with a porch swing underneath, then sit under the vines and swing the night away.
- Just take a blanket out, lay it on the ground and enjoy a good book among the flowers.
How do you relax in the garden?
Beautiful pics as always – and hey, this must be the relaxing post you mentioned before. I came here expecting to see a post on 4th of July garden recipes, since that’s what I’m doing right now, I figured you might be too
I wish I have a garden so I can do some reading. Too bad, I am living in an apartment and the next best thing I can get is a balcony facing a big tree.
wow, what a pictures, always trying to make something like that in my garden, but in vain, have to learn
No 4th of July garden recipes here:-) I did do something similar at Food and Nutrition a few days ago.
I almost did red, white and blue plants, but decided to take some pics of some of my garden plants that remind me of fireworks instead. Hope you had a wonderful holiday!
