One of my favorite cottage garden ideas is to create visual interest and charm in an outdoor space by adding arbors, birdhouse, pathways, and more.

There are many creative ways to create the perfect backdrop for your cottage garden. Rustic and picket fences, gates, and hedges are just a few options.

Picket Fences & Gates

Curved & winding paths made of brick, gravel, flagstone, wood chips, or even grass.

Old-Fashioned Flowers

Old-fashioned sweet peas, daisies, and hydrangeas are perfect for a cottage garden. 

Create an intimate and special space in the garden by adding a seating area under a tree or wisteria arbor.

Seating Areas

Structures such as vine-covered arbors, arches, and trellises in combination with fencing will give a vertical aspect to the garden.

Birdhouses & Birdbaths

How do you bring your garden to life? By bringing finishing touches into the garden such as birdbaths and birdhouses.

Vintage bikes and bike baskets filled with gorgeous flowers make a gorgeous focal point in a cottage garden.
