Whether you have a garden, patio or terrace, these quirky ideas will help transform your outdoor space.<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Here are three ideas if you want to turn your conventional garden or outdoor area into something out of the ordinary.<\/p>\n

Create a fun, Tiki-inspired space<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Tiki culture hails from the South Pacific. With a bit of imagination, you can bring that relaxed, easy-going vibe to your outdoor space.<\/p>\n

Start by building (or buying) a Tiki bar. You can purchase these flat-packed from online and offline retailers or construct your own using timber offcuts.<\/p>\n

Add a thatched beach umbrella and a hammock to help set the scene.<\/p>\n

Some bamboo Tiki-style torches (solar-powered ones are available) and a fire pit will make your new space usable on those not-always-so-balmy UK evenings.<\/p>\n

Lastly, don\u2019t forget your Hawaiian shirts, lei garlands and a good selection of cocktail recipes.<\/p>\n

Create a healthy reflexology path<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Reflexology is a complementary health therapy. It involves applying firm pressure to the feet, hands and other parts of the body. Followers say it promotes relaxation and physical and mental wellbeing.<\/p>\n

Reflexology paths date back hundreds of years and are common in South-East Asia. But it\u2019s not too difficult to create your own at home. You can either make a new path or repurpose an existing one. Use cobblestones, large and small pebbles and gravel of different sizes.<\/p>\n

Once a day (or more often if you like), whip off your footwear and walk your reflexology path. The idea is that the uneven surface applies stimulating pressure to your feet and boosts your physical and mental health.<\/p>\n

Create a magical fairyland<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

A fairy garden will add a touch of magic to your outdoor area. It can work in the tiniest space, even a large planter. If you have children, it will provide them with hours of fun, too.<\/p>\n

Start with some tiny fairy houses and add accessories like fairy benches, tables and chairs, stone walls, fences and pools. You can make these yourself or buy them from online sellers.<\/p>\n

Fairy paths can be created from fine grit or sand. Add some tiny plants \u2013 alpines, mosses and tree seedlings are perfect.<\/p>\n

Finally, don\u2019t forget some twinkly fairy lights.<\/p>\n
