One Day Backyard Projects

One Day Backyard Projects
DSCN2594

Most of us are really busy, and if we end up spending several weekends in the yard finishing projects, they tend to not get finished. I like simple, and fast for most of the DIY projects I do…probably because, if you ask Steve, I have an issue with patience. And procrastination. But that’s another post. :) In any case, the first thing I want to do in the garden each year is all those projects that sounded so perfect at the end of last season! So let’s jump right in and find some great DIY one day backyard projects that are perfect for beginner DIY’ers, and give quick gratification. And who doesn’t love that in the garden?


Our featured project, above, is from Shelstring Blog. A wooden bench made from logs, lumber, and a few well learned lessons! Read their tutorial, this would be amazing in a shade garden!


This is one of our original projects, and still one of my fav garden projects we’ve done so far… It’s come along way since this photo was taken, so Ill try to update this season with all the plants filled in. But if you are looking for something simple and more contemporary, try our DIY Project: Contemporary Garden Water Feature – Less than $30.

More water features! This DIY bamboo water feature had complete instructions, I love how different this is! Great idea if you have a slope you don’t know what to do with, or want to bring a more Zen feel to the garden.
