I hated my boring garden but I don’t have enough money for a landscaper – so I transformed it myself & it looks great

A HOME owner who hated his "boring" garden but didn't have enough cash for a landscaper has revealed he completed the transformation himself.

Dana shared how he decided to go about the DIY project on his TikTok - and the before photos reveal a very different garden.

Prior to the remodel, his backyard featured a wide open green space and minimal decorations.

He said: "Absolutely hated our boring backyard but didn't have a lot to spend on it.

"I decided to do it myself and for less than £750 ($1,000)."

Using his minimal budget, Dana added posts to hang string lights from which immediately brightened up the space.

A new deck table and chairs with a bright striped umbrella added a pop of colour to the formerly boring area.

And a wooden wall added a bit of privacy for the new inflatable hot tub added below the house's window.

He even added a custom monogrammed letter on the new wall to personalise the area.

A few square stones created a gorgeous walkway, leading to a fire pit with four wooden chairs.
