[Music] Many homeowners feel that a small front yard limits their landscaping ideas. It’s easy to feel uninspired by a tiny patch of grass. But here’s the secret. A small space is an opportunity for clever, focused design. You don’t need a sprawling estate to create a luxurious and elegant entryway.

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Hello. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Let’s start with the gate. A garden gate is a functional piece of art. It’s the first thing your guests will touch. So, the material and style set the entire tone for your home. Whether you’re aiming for a cozy cottage feel, a rustic farmhouse vibe, or sleek modern lines, the gate is your opportunity to make a clear style statement right at the sidewalk.

A white picket gate is the quintessential element of the American cottage garden, evoking feelings of nostalgia and charm. For a modern farmhouse aesthetic, consider a stained cedar or redwood gate with black hardware. This look is incredibly popular, blends beautifully with natural landscaping, and is a fantastic DIY landscaping project for a weekend. [Music] [Music] Hallelujah. Heat. [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat.

The trend is moving towards sleek, simple designs. Think horizontal slats, solid panels, or a mix of metal and wood. These minimalist garden gates provide not only style, but also enhanced front yard privacy, turning your entryway into a truly secluded oasis away from the street. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Applause] Heat. Heat. [Applause] [Music] Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. [Applause] [Music] Now, let’s talk about the arch. A garden arch or arbor is the ultimate way to add vertical interest to a small flat yard. It draws the eye upward, making the space feel taller and more dynamic. It acts as a beautiful portal framing your front door or the beginning of your garden path. It’s a transition that feels magical, like stepping into a different world. [Music] [Music] Oh, [Music] [Laughter] [Music] heat. Heat. Heat. [Music] [Laughter] [Music] Arches come in a variety of materials. A simple wooden lattice arch is a budget-friendly DIY option that’s perfect for a cottage or farmhouse garden. Final arbors are a fantastic lowmaintenance landscaping choice as they won’t rot or fade. For a more permanent architectural feature, a customuilt wooden pergola entrance or a sturdy metal arch provides a sense of grandeur that lasts a lifetime. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] An arch is just a structure until Do you plant it? The most iconic pairing, of course, is a climbing rose. Draping an in arbor in fragrant roses like New Dawn or Eden creates a breathtaking romantic entryway that appeals to all the senses. This is a hallmark of the English cottage garden and it’s a look that never ever goes out of style. [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] [Music] While roses are romantic, other vines offer incredible benefits. A climbing clemetus can provide a stunning second bloom after the roses fade. Wisteria with its dramatic fragrant purple blossoms makes a spectacular spring statement. For shade, consider a climbing hydrangeanger. And for year- round color, an evergreen vine like English ivy or a winter blooming jasmine ensures your entryway looks lush even in the coldest months. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] The gate and arch must connect to the pathway to be effective. In a small yard, the path design is critical. A gentle curve rather than a straight line can make the yard feel longer. Materials like natural flag stone, classic brick pavers, or even budget friendly peak gravel add texture and charm. The pathway guides your guests on the journey you’ve created. [Music] Yeah. Heat.

[Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] [Music] Another emerging trend is the edible landscape or foodscaping. Why not make your front yard productive as well as beautiful? Line your new pathway with herbs like rosemary, thyme, and sage. Use ornamental kale or rainbow chard as colorful border plants. It’s a modern, sustainable take on the farmhouse garden that is both practical and gorgeous. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] If your yard is truly tiny, think vertically. Use the walls of your house or your new fence. A vertical garden with pockets for succulents or annuals or a simple trellis against the house continues that upward visual lift you started with the arch. This strategy makes a small space feel lush and intentionally designed rather than sparse. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Oh, [Music] hey. Container gardens are a small yard’s best friend. To create a truly elegant and formal entryway, place two large, identical planters on either side of your gate or arch. This symmetry creates a sense of grandeur. The beauty of container gardening is its flexibility. You can easily swap out plants for four season interest, keeping your entrance looking fresh from spring tulips to winter evergreens. Heat. Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Laughter] [Music] [Laughter] [Music] Your front yard transformation isn’t complete without outdoor lighting. A well-lit entryway is essential for safety, but it’s also a key component of luxury design. Use low voltage or solarp powered pathway lights to softly illuminate the walkway. Consider adding a small spotlight pointing up at your arch to highlight it as a dramatic feature against the night sky. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Applause] [Music] [Laughter] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] Don’t forget the details. The hardware on your garden gate is like the jewelry for your outfit.
