You may not be blessed with a huge outdoor space but that's not to say you can't be creative with what you do have. With a little design know-how even the smallest back lawn, the most petite of patios or the tiniest of balconies can become an enjoyable place in which to spend time. Trick the eye with a colour scheme or clever use of lighting, make a feature of foliage, or simply adorn the small space with inviting accessories. Look no further, we have all the small garden ideas you need.

Lighting is the simplest way to create mood in a garden. A few hurricane lanterns or tea lights hung from a tree can add instant romance to a summer's evening.
