People from big cities would say that having a backyard is a privilege. Millions of people living in buildings long for a piece of land, where they could establish a contact with nature after a hard day at work.
Therefore, if you are among the lucky ones and have a backyard, don’t leave it shabby. Here are some ideas on how to renovate your outdoor space this season.
Have an Outdoor Fireplace
You don’t have to wait for the spring to spend time in your backyard. There is a way to make yourself comfortable in your garden even when it’s cold.
So, what you could do is install an outdoor fireplace. There are a variety of stylish and useful fire features you can use to warm up. Besides, the fire will also provide light and a great atmosphere at night.
There is a variety of natural fireplaces and electric heaters you can choose from, built-in or independent. Also, outdoor gas fire pits are another quite popular solution for this season.

Turn On the Lights
The winter nights are long. Therefore, during winter, bright and vivid lights could turn your dark backyard into a magical space.
You could fight the long nights with colorful stringing or pendant lights. Another option is to wrap bistro lights around trees or other similar structures in your garden.
If you have a back porch or independent structure, floor level lights could do wonders for the outdoor atmosphere.

Hot Tub for Outdoor Self Indulgence
Scandinavians, famous for their refined taste in architecture and design, have a tradition of going out in the cold after a hot sauna. In order to have such a special experience, you don’t have to travel to Sweden. You could simply install a hot tub in your backyard!

Outdoor hot tubs are an amazing facility to have. Warming up your bones inside and then making a short walk through your winter garden is extremely healthy, for body and for the mind. Besides, hot tubs are a great excuse for some quality alone time, but also a strong contribution to long summer parties.
Scented Herbs for a Green Garden
If you think you can have a green winter garden only if you fill it with evergreens, think again. There is a number of scent and decorative herbs that survive cold and snow, keeping your backyard fresh and lively throughout the year.
Besides, scented herbs are perfect for replenishing even the smallest properties that can’t really host larger trees or structures.
Rosemary is one of the most resilient ones, but you can also plant basil, mint, sage, and lavender. As most of these plants are also medicinal, they make a comforting tea if you ever catch a cold. Also, they can be a source of fresh spices for your favorite recipes.

Free Standing Structures for Family Gatherings
During the holidays, we tend to socialize more than usual. Having the whole family over for a diner can be tricky if your dining room isn’t large enough.
Therefore, designers recommend making roofed free structures outside, where you will be able to host everyone.
Also, these structures are permanent, and are one of the things you can’t bring with you to another home. So, since they are fixed and require a significant investment, they aren’t the best choice if you’re planning to move soon.
In any case, free standing structures go particularly well with the outdoor hot tubs, fireplaces, and grills. In essence, you want to have a source of heating so that your guests can enjoy themselves fully even during the cold days.

Rattan Furniture
Rattan has been a trending material for outdoor furniture for years, and it goes on to 2022 as well. It is sustainable, beautiful, and resistant to low temperatures, making rattan chairs and tables perfect choice for your backyard cozy corner.
