Summertime Yard Decorating

• Summertime is when people love to get outdoors and enjoy the warm weather. There are some quick and easy ways to decorate a yard for the summertime. Hanging paper lanterns can make for a festive atmosphere as well as light the yard after the sun has set. Hanging the lanterns on trees around the yard is a creative way to celebrate summertime. Fresh bunches of flowers are always a good choice to brighten the yard.
  
  

Springtime Yard Decorating

• Gardeners can plant colorful flowers in the yard to brighten things up in the spring. A mini fountain adds ambience to a yard and can help attract butterflies and birds. A bird feeder can be a pleasant reminder that spring has arrived. Place decorative garden stakes in the yard for a unique look. Garden gnomes are also a popular choice.
  
  

Fall Yard Decorating

• In the fall many people decorate the yard for Halloween. Tombstones, skeletons and coffins are popular decorations for the holiday. Ghosts can be made to hang in a tree and mummies can guard the front door. If you're simply looking to celebrate autumn, use haystacks, pumpkins, a pile of leaves or flower wreaths to give the yard a fall feeling.
  
  

Wintertime Yard Decorating

• During the winter decorated yards are common sights. One way to spruce up a yard for the winter is to decorate the mailbox by attaching a sprig of pine and some pine cones to it. Building a snowman in the yard is a free and easy way to decorate for the winter season. A decorated sled can also add a festive touch, or decorate a fence or a lamppost with garland and ribbon.
