Boho garden décor combines elements of Bohemian and quirky design. Also, it features a mix of vibrant colours, a fusion of cultural elements, patterned textiles and an overall relaxed and natural aesthetic. There's an emphasis on self-expression and creativity, so it's most certainly a trend for lovers of one-off finds on Ebay and Facebook Marketplace. The best garden accessories allow you to put your own mark of individuality on your outdoor space.
Mismatched furniture and an emphasis on personal expression create a relaxed and Bohemian atmosphere. Throw in shabby-chic elements – mix and match an outdoor coffee table, sofa and even a rocking chair. In addition, choose beanbags, cushions and throws with bold patterns or colourful floral prints and repeat motifs. A boho aesthetic is a style that embraces a relaxed, creative and free-spirited vibe. Look for colourful garden décor that adds a touch of cosy, fancies up a bare spot or adds an extra layer of interest.

Boho garden décor can be colourful with patterned outdoor rugs, hanging macramé planters, hand-painted signs and whimsical wind chimes. Alternatively, contrast natural textures with eclectic planters or repurposed pots – fringing and tasselling abound and really, anything goes. Decorate with love and wild abandon as kaleidoscopic textiles are given a cosy touch with the addition of candlelight.
Be sure to get the ambience right. Warm and atmospheric lighting is the right vibe for a boho garden. Pair wicker or rattan seating and accessories with lanterns or string lights around a cosy fire pit or chiminea. Additionally, drape throws, mix-and-match vintage fabrics and comfy cushions to reflect a sense of free-spirited individuality whilst being inviting to guests.

FAQs
How do I makeover my garden?
In need of some garden makeover inspiration? Whether you're looking for vintage knick-knacks on a budget or you have the funds to create your own little piece of paradise, sometimes it's hard to know where to begin. So, it's a good idea to look at what others have done and get some handy tips.
Rachel Toal writes for Modern Gardens about Alison Bosworth’s garden transformation.

Behind the façade of Alison Bosworth’s suburban semi lies a hidden gem. Lush, colourful and bursting with Far Eastern influences, her gorgeous garden belies its ordinary Midlands location. “Visitors get a shock when they step outside,” she smiles. “It’s easy to be fooled by our conventional exterior, so they don’t expect those jungle leaves and tropical touches. I joke it’s my little bit of Bali in Birmingham!”
Evolving organically, rather than with a set plan, the design has come together thanks to some clever spontaneity. “I’m quite a haphazard gardener!” admits Alison. “If I see something I like I go for it, and the end result is quite eclectic. We’ve got pretty cottage flowers as well as big jungle leaves. Each zone blends together, and doesn’t jar.” That seamless transition between traditional and exotic is the hallmark of Alison’s garden.
Although 20 years old, the decking is still stylish with rugs cushions and throws collected on travels, as well as the odd bargain from H&M. This suntrap zone often sees Alison relaxing on comfortable chairs under the shade of one of her intricately handpainted parasols. Also brightening up the timber are Alison’s beloved pots, which she switches throughout the year. From spring displays of tulips and daffodils to striking winter cabbage in the cooler months, there’s always structure and colour to break up the space.
