Just because it’s cold out doesn’t mean you can’t undertake some landscaping projects during winter! As a matter of fact, winter time can actually be the best time to undertake certain landscaping projects. During the winter months, you are usually using your outdoor living space significantly less so you won’t be inconvenienced by the lack of availability to different areas in your yard. Mickey’s LawnScapes suggests you consider what you will want to use the most when the weather turns nice again and offers some ideas below.

Best Landscaping Ideas for Winter

• Fire Pits & Outdoor Fireplaces – Who says you have to go camping to enjoy sitting around a campfire? Invite the neighbors over, light up the fire pit, roast marshmallows over open flames and enjoy the crackle and glow. You’ll be singing campfire songs in no time! Fire pits and outdoor fireplaces are a great investment as they extend back yard use through fall and winter. In fact, they can be used all year round. Mickey’s LawnScapes specializes in custom design and installation of fire pits and outdoor fireplaces. And to get maximum enjoyment, consider hiring us to install outdoor lighting to complement the campfire mood.
• Pool Decks – You’re obviously not using your pool in the winter so why not install a new pool deck now so your pool party space is perfect for your summer get-togethers? One of the biggest trends in outdoor design today is a decorative pool deck. Mickey’s LawnScapes offers both flagstone and brick pool decks or a combination of brick pavers, flagstone coping and border bands.
• Outdoor Kitchen – One of the most popular renovation areas in the home is the kitchen which on average brings a return on investment of as much as 70-80%. Outdoor kitchens can get you about the same if not more. Besides, nothing is more fun than a summer cookout! With an outdoor kitchen, you can take these to the next level! Enjoy spending time with your friends and family with a fully functional outdoor kitchen for the ultimate entertainment space. And fireplaces or coverings can extend the use of your outdoor kitchen into the colder months. Mickey’s LawnScapes offers custom designs of outdoor kitchens customized to your family’s needs.
