I want to make my garden look more funky, but not adhesive. I don't just want to paint the wall or add a coloured bench. Something perhaps more subtle but still beside a big impact.
Answers:    One of the best ways to add colour to a small space is near a unified collection of glazed pots.

Be disciplined and choose a single or two-colour area, or it will end up looking messy. For example, a collection of glazed planters and urns contained by blue and cream will look attractive all year round, regardless of what you enjoy planted in them.

To add on a bit of extra personality, consider converting one of them into a pond - plug the drainage holes near sealant and plant a few aquatic plants.

Another great style to inject colour is with some of the fabulous coloured pebbles available now. Either use them as a mulch or make a unharmed pebbled pathway from them. If you want something even more funky, look for the coloured recycled glass mulches available - these come surrounded by amazing gelato-like colours.

And the painted fence is still a great technique for calculation colour. If you don't want to do the whole piece, just choose a booth, then hang down a wall decoration on it.

Wind chimes. Markets sometimes hold those coloured dangly, whirly thingy's, not sure what they're actually call. Cover some extra large cushions near bright fabric to lounge on within the sun. Paint a mural (canvas) or make a mosaic to hang down on an outside wall. Maybe hang a bright flag symbolising something beside special meaning to you and your ancestral, or make a funky letterbox. Buy a wheelie bin and paint a rainforest picture on it? Make a house number to dangle on an outside wall using a large tile and glue coloured stones and little pieces of mirror onto it. I'm sounding like a hippie, all the same I'm anything but ! Hope this has given you an notion or two.
