It’s that time of year again, when we dream big when it comes to our garden and outdoor spaces. But how do we create classy gardens that are as beautiful as they are fruitful?
I always have visions of grandeur until the summer heat drives me back into the house, but for now, let’s dream big and plan the perfect spaces that inspire us to keep working at it.
Today I’m sharing some of my favorite inspirational and classy gardens, and some really stylish projects to help make your garden a truly stunning space!

Garden Seating & Outdoor Living
I just love seeing outdoor living areas created for a garden! It means we are truly enjoying our garden spaces, and not just working in them. This space featured in House Beautiful keeps it simple with an outdoor dining table and chairs.
My friend Ashley at Cherished Bliss also rocks the outdoor dining space in her yard! What a beautiful way to have the ultimate garden party.

Doesn’t this trellis archway make this garden dreamy? Rooted Garden designed the perfect space, and then took it up a notch by adding the most magical as well as practical trellis you’ve ever seen! Which, by the way, is a kit that is for sale on their website.
