Installing a cabana in your backyard garden makes the area more beautiful and gives you a proper area to rest in your garden while looking over the well-kept landscape in the shade. However, some homeowners have the wrong impression of a cabana, which means you'll have to own a pool to have one. However, this is a misconception, and you can freely enjoy a cabana to your heart's content in your backyard,
A cabana is a cabin, shelter, or hut often mistaken for a gazebo. Their main difference is that a cabana has walls on its structure, unlike a gazebo which only has a roof as its cover. So, how do you make the perfect backyard oasis for your garden?
Add Comfort to Your Cabana
You can design and decorate your cabana in many ways, but the best one is the type that fits your style best. Since a cabana can also be referred to as a backyard oasis for you and your family (or your visitors!), filling this comfort space with comfortable things you love would be preferable.
Adding a comfortable rug to bring comfort to your sole feet once you enter the cabana. You can consider getting a jute rug, which is also very easy to clean, especially since you might not always stay in the cabana. So, cleaning this would be less of a hassle. Aside from that, it also never goes out of style and is highly durable and cheap. Moreover, you can purchase them in an American, Asian, or Australian jute rug shop you can find in your locale.
You can also put more fabrics and pillows in your space to heighten your comfort. Consider making your cabana a personal space or an area that extends your favorite room in your house.
Shop for Furniture
Aside from comfort, you can also improve the space's efficiency by placing furniture. Putting just a bed, a rug, and a few pillows might do the trick for you, but installing furniture can complete the whole cabana space.
Adding essential furniture, such as a sofa set or any lounging chair, a bed, or even a movable bar, can make your cabana livable. Some also put up a place to host a barbecue party or a simple backyard picnic. So, you can be creative about how you want to utilize your cabana and start shopping for furniture.
Consider Putting up Fun and Decor Signs
Aside from comfort and having an efficient space, you should also consider putting up the materials or decorations that make that speak so much about you. As mentioned, since the cabana is your "oasis," make the most of it and let it represent yourself. However, if you're unsure how to start with this, starting a theme for your cabana might help. A few of the popular choices are the following:
-
Japanese Garden House. As its name suggests, this cabana theme is inspired by a traditional Japanese garden house built with traditional aesthetics. Its main point is the cabana roof, similar to a Japanese house.
-
Cottage-Inspired Cabana. A cottage-like cabana is also popular for homeowners with a smaller yard. It has a cozy and soft style, which gives off a natural rustic or farmhouse vibe. So, you can choose shades on the warmer side, like cream, honey-yellow, earthy stone, or the like.
-
Tropical Cabana. The tropical cabana is highly inspired by natural beauty, which brings nature inside your cabana. This theme is popular for homes with backyard pools, which imitate picture-perfect areas in beach resorts. You can consider hanging lots of shrubbery or flowers, putting plants inside the place, and the like.
Install Smart Irrigation
To make your garden and cabana experience more worthwhile, upgrade your backyard to a smart one. It doesn't need to be extra sophisticated. Still, something convenient that will also benefit the flowers and plants in your garden also improves your stay in your cabana, such as installing smart irrigation.
Smart irrigation is a system that helps the watering process by considering the weather or soil conditions. Having this technology in your backyard allows your garden to be optimized so that you can enhance the watering your plans will need. This means you can conserve more water and help the quality of your garden.
Moreover, you don't have to do all the hard work of walking around your backyard to water them since everything can be monitored and handled in a single application. So, you can instead enjoy the newly watered scent of your backyard as you lay down in your cabana.
Final Thoughts
Adding more spaces that make you comfortable in your home helps improve your quality of life. Decorating it also gives you a sense of purpose and accomplishment. So, you can take your time deciding how you would want your cabana to look, and by following the tips above, you can have a pretty good idea of how and where to start. Again, don't be afraid to be creative and have fun during the process!
