"You can add any thing that makes you smile but creates fun area needs proper touch and design
A lots of the time they are not in proportion with the garden size or shaped wrongly
So get your pencil and draw your garden after you get ideas from landscaping books and redraw with fun shapes

"If you live in an urban or suburban area, it’s quite likely your garden is a little square-ish shape – not exactly the stuff of garden design fantasies. A rather plain canvas, usually divided into patio/decking with some lawn remaining. But don’t despair – with the right tricks, your handkerchief of a backyard can be transformed into a far less square, more spacious-looking area. To help you do this, here are 5 tips to create an inspiring and roomy square garden design with your box-like plot."

"I’d suggest adding borders/edging with gravel,
You’d be able to get the preferred design & colours that you want,
A simple circular border around the base of a tree/bush filled with white & grey gravel could create a circle; then the pattern you choose for the different coloured gravel can create another shape of your choosing.
Hope this helps you find some ideas for your garden!
Kind regards
Dean"
