The epic DIY project comes after another woman turned her drab garden into a seriously chic space.

Using bargains she purchased on Amazon and Dunelm egg chairs, she managed to make the outdoor space look bigger despite it being quiet a tiny space.

Posting on the Mrs Hinch Made Me Do It, she showed off the results of her hard work.

Tara, who also has an interior design Instagram page, wrote: "Before and after- tiny outdoor space."

Before the makeover, the space looked neglected. The grass looked severely dehydrated with brown and yellow patches of scrub.

Meanwhile, the fence was painted a boring shade of brown, while Tara had neglected to add in any furniture other than one solitary chair.
