Side yards often are narrow and more utilitarian in nature (think faucets and hoses, garbage or recycling containers, and storage).
But with a little planning and creativity, you can make your side yard both useful and appealing, whether it shows to passersby or just from your window.
With increased interest in making yards an extension of the home, more homeowners are adding outdoor spaces dedicated to eating, cooking, and relaxing.
Since urban lots are shrinking, every square inch is at a premium. While front and back yards get most of the attention, side yards tend to be neglected, becoming wasted space.
A side yard is primarily seen as a route between the front and back yards. The area tends to be dark and narrow and present unique design challenges, so the potential to create an attractive and functional space is often missed.
Here are 41 creative ways to turn your side yard spaces from awkward to awesome.
