Hello everybody - Micah Outdoor Living Guy with some low-cost options for the backyard.
1) String Lights: string lights are low cost, and they are very attractive. They light up your space adding distinction to your entire outdoor area. A low-cost option adding loads of value.
2) Simple Fire Pit: another low-cost backyard idea is a simple fire pit. You might think that's a bit expensive, but this is something you can do yourself very easily. A wood burning fire pit with brick from a local hardware store - build the base - fill the walls.
3) Backyard Movie Theatres: a low-cost backyard idea is an outdoor movie theater. No, it does not cost that much to create a DYI. I think I spent like $30 for my screen and then a simple projector - there are many different price points.
4) Water Features: another low-cost option for a backyard idea is a water feature. You can go very cost effective with these do-it-yourself projects. A flowerpot turns into a beautiful bubbler or you could do more of a meandering water feature.
5) Wood Retaining Wall: Using wood to retain the property can be a cost-effective option instead of building it out of concrete or concrete block. or some of the other material that he could have cost option for
6) Dry Creek Beds: are cool features - they are basically River Rock which you can buy in bulk at an inexpensive price point. They create a nice destination of the nice but also do a phenomenal job of handling drainage.
7) Gravel Patio: on a budget - use gravel as a patio. You can do this in a way that makes it look like it was stylistically what you chose instead of a low-cost option.
8) Hammocks: Create a little destination using a hammock.
9) Privacy Screens: Privacy is a huge concern for many people and there are many low-cost options.

here are string lights.... in already beautiful backyards....
Thanks Frank for your positive viewpoint!
😂 Here's my low cost backyard: Go to shed. Retrieve Christmas lights. Tack up on back of house. Dig hole. Put leftover scrap lumber inside. Hose down lumber with lighter fluid. Throw in match. Invite 20 best friends over. Make fish tacos and margaritas with fresh limes. You have the best backyard they've ever seen. You are a legend.
That shit pissed me off🤣
Haha exactly what I was thinking and came to comment on
Yeah, imagine those “already beautiful” backyards without the lights.
How about show us what a budget makeover would look like on a crappy yard instead of these million dollar homes that obviously have no “budget”
These are ideas that can be used at every budget level. I hope u found some inspiration... Thank u for the comment
These are not million dollar homes just decorated nice. How bout take the ideas and use your imagination and stop whining
@@BackyardDesignGuy The linked privacy screens are over $300 just for one panel. That’s unrealistic for a “low cost” video.
Erin. Watch this video he has a budget of $200

Thank you🙄
I've just moved into a new build and the garden is a blank canvas. It's a big project and I have a few ideas but I'm on a budget so doing it all myself.
I really like the water feature, and privacy screens, also the gravel patio as that is what I'm doing.
Thank you, I will definitely checking out your ideas again 😀👍🏻
I like the combination of gravel and large pavers or flagstone. I garden for pollinators and other wildlife, and I try to improve the environment by doing as many sustainable things as I can in an urban townhouse, so it's important to me to maintain permeability so the water can seep into the ground, rather than run off. Thank you for all of these images, they were very inspiring!
I loved the gravel patio areas! The string lights are a great idea too. Chimenea's are another way to add fire to your backyard.
Great tip Suzanne! Thank you For subscribing and offering your point of view!
I really liked the outdoor movie theater and the fire pit ideas. I would like some ideas about ways to set up outdoor cooking and seating layouts for the backyard barbecues. Thank you so much for these awesome ideas for outdoor space use! I appreciate the inspiration and the confidence you instilled in getting it done.😊
So grateful for your inspiring ideas and the many options for small backyard. Your videos introduced us more options we never considered. It would be awesome to see how your design would help us maximize our small backyard space. Thank you!
Hi Gennette Diggs, we would love to help. Feel free to reach out here paradiserestored.com/contact-us/ I will send over our process video and pricing brochure and then we can schedule a zoom meeting if it seems like a good fit for you.
5:58 That kid watching a movie while in the pool = plush existence. Love it.
Edit: Also, this is my first video with you, and you seem like a genuinely caring guy. Appreciating you.
Thank you for the comments and the support. Please let me know if you need any help with your outdoor space
Another budget idea is building or repurposing a piece of furniture (like a potting bench) into a bar/food serving station. We created different zones in our yard (eating/games/food and beverage/lounge and conversation). Each of the zones has a heat source (different sizes of fire pits and picked fuel sources that matched the zone type), lighting, and a speaker. Using plants also makes our yard feel more thought out and relaxing.

Just know that you will be my go to when I need an expert for landscaping design, etc. for myself, people I know, and my clients. THANK YOU for your videos and your resources! --Juliann
Thank u SO MUCH Juliann ❤! I really appreciate your comment and support 🤗
@@BackyardDesignGuy So deserving and you are so welcome! Have you ever considered building privacy screens and other beautiful/functional backyard products and selling them? You have the following...just sayin'
😊❤
I loved the privacy screens! I didn't even realize there were so many options for that.
Loved the string lighting, fire pit and outdoor projector ideas. Great ideas.
Thank you for watching and commenting❤. We appreciate u letting us know your favorite items. Have the best day
Great ideas! Don't forget to add game spaces such as; checkers table, horse shoe toss, tower table etc. These are even more inexpensive.
Man, I love my furniture.
Me and my recliner go way back.
you probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown :)
@Raylan Trevor definitely, I have been using instaflixxer for years myself :)
your dry river bed draining from the downspout, will add big rocks, do a drainage bed to the cedar tree, make a oriental bridge across & drain from the water barrel when it is full, love your ideas & inspired even more to do it from seeing this.
Nice to see all the inspiring ideas you have talked about. The gravel patio, the wood retaining wall and water feature are on top of my list now because of this. Thank you so much!!
Heck yeah! Thank u too. Have an awesome day
I have a small backyard, it is actually the side of the house but is used as a backyard. Since it is the side of the house, you can see it from the street. Your videos offer such wonderful ideas and exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing.
Sounds great! Here is another side yard/backyard we completed: paradiserestored.com/portfolio_item/backyard-patio-designs/
The ideas you presented that were my favorite was the outdoor projector, lighting (I’m an Edison light type person), the decorative privacy walls, and the dry lake beds. We just bought new outdoor furniture and I am restoring two bistro tables, two chairs and a side table, and plus we are revamping our landscaping as we have a lot of over grown scrubs and plants. Thank you so much my friend for sharing your wonderful ideas to beautify my backyard. Your expertise and ideas have been very helpful to me. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️.
Thank you for the beautiful comment. I really appreciate your support
@@BackyardDesignGuy You are most welcome 🤗
❤
Great ideas on the privacy screens! We’ve been trying to find a way to shield the backyard and fire pit from high winds in the area without completely blocking the view through the fence.
The water features are such a great idea. I can’t wait to add some to my outdoor space.
Thanks u Training Olives 🤗❤ we appreciate your comment and support 👍
I like the gravel and the river rocks and it gave me some ideas about drainage. I have a nature area about 50 x 60 and it’s raised up anywhere from a half foot to 3 foot on two sides and the front part of it which runs along the sidewalk has a landscaping block retaining wall so on one side I’m having trouble with runoff and I’m working on tackling that problem. Thank you new to the channel and really love this video
These ideas can be implemented on any budget. We're already clearing an area on our property for the firepit, thank you so much for the video, it certainly gave us a few ideas.
Yay! I am so happy!
Some awesome ideas. I never would've thought of an outdoor movie screen etc.
Loved the fireplace/fire pit, string lights are a must! I also liked the privacy walls. Great ideas!
Thank you Silvia. I really appreciate your comment and support ❤
Fantastic ideas for making your garden space a more enjoyable place to be in The fire pits and seating area is something we are considering for our garden, just need to factor in the Scottish weather!
Hi Paul. My family and I visited Scotland at the end of 2019... We enjoyed Edinburgh. Love that u are watching from Scotland ❤
Never even considered an outdoor movie screen...until now! Love it
Thank you! Yes...u will love it for sure! Summertime outdoor movies are THE BEST! 😊
Loved the large, round copper fire bowl at 3:08 with all the smores fixings... marshmallow's on a stick, Hershey bars and graham crackers set in a wooded area. Beautiful!! 😁👍
Thank you 😋❤
I want to congratulate you for giving me, by publishing your ideas, much knowledge if how modern Garden Architecture accommodates patios, fire places and water features nowadays.
Its about what I had had in my mind to work out and I feel that my plans are very much enriched by your videos.
I have only watched a couple of your videos so I can not say much on your ideas in other parts of a garden design although I have been very keen to the idea that in a considerable small backyard its better not to make paths that form a straight line in order to get the visitors eye to want to wonder to see of what's hidden besides the curves and therefore to make him/her get further into the garden and also when I attempted to do myself, in a DIY manner, my small yards design and gardening planting I wanted to put a feature to give a sence in some parts of the end of the paths as for the visitor not to realise the approximate side of the yard, falsely thinking that it is more extended beyond the feature put at the end.
Keep up the good job, mate.
I would very much like if you could put a comment with your points on this.
Thank you for this amazing comment. I really appreciate your thoughts and your support. Have a wonderful day
Loved it thank you moving from California back to Illinois next year and you're gonna give me good ideas for a house..so I can have a better type patio then Midwest usual does and thank you for the privacy Wood ideas!
I like the details you provided as to the most cost effective option vs needing a professional!
I really like the string lights and will look around for solar powered string lights. Also, the fire pit ideas are great too!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the support!
I live in Arizona, you know home of no greenery. We have winds between 20 to 30mph sometimes. Is like to see some landscaping ideas that are low cost but sturdy, and wind and high temperature resistant. Loved some of the ideas in this video.
www.eclipseawning.com/products/eclipse-traclock-solar-shade-and-insect-screen/ these screens can help with wind.
Great video! Plenty of summer time projects are now on my list. Thanks. I also agree with the earlier comment about some DIY "How to" videos. Thanks again.
Awesome! Thank you! That puts a smile on our faces Eric!
These are all great ideas and you'll find several of them coming soon to my backyard!!
I love the fire pit and the projector for movies.
Awesome presentation and equivalent side options. Perfect music!
WHAT? Glad you liked it! You must realize - we sincerely try to appease & please our viewers . . . you in one sentence massaged our "How'd We Do" stats - Thanks Jimmye! Like the way your name is spelled - BTW - cool
My favourite idea is the concrete sitting bench with the wooden slats and the metal fire pit (03:12). Definitely a DIY option which won`t leave you bankrupt.
I loved this video- because it is budget friendly!! Keep them coming. I like the string lighting and hammock idea. Thank you !!
Yay. Thank u too Heather. I really appreciate your support
Thank you somuch for the video, it inspired me the most with outstanding backyard ideas. this video is full of options and i loved each and every idea in it. Thanks
Thank you for this inspiring comment! It makes me want to work even harder to get better and help as many as possible have the backyard of their dreams. Have the best day!
Appreciate your wonderful ideas and video; my wife loves the fire pits and water falls!
I appreciate you...thank u for wanting and commenting ❤
thanks for some of the ideas! we are in the planning stage of our backyard. so helpful.. watching from Brisbane Australia!
Wonderful! Have fun Sea from Brisbane! It's a process - with a finish line that is extra rewarding
your outdoor area looks spectacular! Want to do something similar, but using inflatable daybeds from the fillup club.
I love the privacy screen idea I will use it in combination with other ideas you have here thanks
That's a great video to build backyard project on a budget. I'm finding professional to design my backyard with a low cost.
Love watching your video special the outdoor light that you can just hang them anywhere we did this in our backyard with a large gazebo and it's so beautiful doing the summertime and holidays
Thank you William. Appreciate you watching and commenting ❤
I enjoy watching your ideas. I am in the planning stage redesign my backyard,but I have to keep in mind about pets, and ultities lines. the low cost was helpful, thanks
Wonderful! We appreciate your watching our channel. Thank you Clarice!
Super cute idea to do backyard movies. Thanks for the suggestion.
You got it Jennifer. Thanks for the comment and support 🙏
Great video, full of beautiful examples
I like many of these ideas. I have several living spaces in my back yard, including a DIY firepit in one with string lights. My water feature fell apart from the weather. So, I'll have to revisit that. I have a rustic theme going at the house and love the dry creek bed and meandering water feature. But, I'm not up for the engineering and upkeep on those. I also have the movie screen set up against the house near the fire pit area. That is actually pretty cool and have a second location in the driveway so we can invite neighbors over to watch as the walk by. The mobile projector and sound gear help with the mobility of the gear. Privacy screening is a big thing for me now as is shade. I hadn't thought of incorporating a living space in the front yet. But, I'll definitely see what I can do once the driveway/walkway are redone.
Thank u for this comment. I love hearing how different ones have created backyard living spaces. Thank u again
I’m new to the community but live the videos I’ve seen so far. In this video I lived the outdoor movie idea, small water fountain idea and the gravel destination.
Welcome Valerie. Thanks for sharing what u liked. Please let me know if I can help in any way with your space? Have a wonderful day
We are in the process of reinventing our out door space, very helpful info..
Thank you Kenna! Best to your makeover!
Wicked thank you will do some of these I'm definitely going to so the string lights and add a privacy screen on my patio thank you.
Awesome JB. Thanks for letting me know. Have a great day
I liked the burn pit and water features. We have a large backyard over an acre. Would like to see transition from backyard to raised bed ideas. Also how to incorporate a play area for horse shoes, corn hole, etc.
Yessssssss!!! Thank you for the tips on the string lights and privacy screens OMG :)
You got it! I’m so happy it worked for u! Have an awesome day A Cobb 🤙
I love the dry riverbed idea! Thanks.
Excellent presentation! Your video offered some very nice ideas. THANKS!!!
Glad it was helpful - and thank you for watching & commenting!
String lights have always attracted my attention but the metal privacy screens were fabulous and new to me.
Thank you Sharon. I appreciate your comment
I really liked some of the privacy fences looked like a great idea fir my backyard.
Would love to have a few step by step videos of DIY backyard items (a basic wooden pergola with retractable screen, an easy water feature made out of plant pots or a metal tub, how to install artificial grass, etc)
Thank u for the content ideas. I will do my best to get those items posted ❤🤗
Me too. I want a bespoke Pergola as well.
Me too, too some smaller water features : D
I like it all!! But the one I took screenshots of was the string lighting with the hydrangeas and evergreen privacy hedge by the pool. ☺️💕
I like that one too! 🥰😍
Thank you very much for the program
Loved the clay pot water feature and the metal screens. I didn’t see a price listed in the description. Can you list it here? Thanks for all of the great tips! 🏘🌻😎
Everything looks so nice 👍
I loved everything but the fire pits and privacy screen were my fav...
We like those too Stylez!
