Go for Gravel—The Budget Hero
Forget expensive paving slabs. Gravel is your new best friend. It’s incredibly cheap, easy to lay, and somehow looks instantly stylish.
You can even mix different colours for a custom look. The downside? It tends to wander off into your lawn, but hey, that just adds character, right?
Decking with a DIY Twist
Last year’s decking boards that someone is selling on Facebook Marketplace? Grab them. Sand them down and give them a fresh coat of stain.
You can create a simple square or a more interesting pattern. It’s like building a giant, outdoor Lego set—but with splinters. Wear gloves!
