1. The botanical garden bar
This garden bar by @daintydressdiaries is perfect for gin lovers – just look at all those herbs and plants to boost your botanicals! Digital creator Catherine, who runs the account, has used an old bed to create her bar. It’s all about upcycling, folks! The gorgeous blush pink shade suits the rest of her home and makes it feel beautifully unique.
2. The upcycled palette bar
Have a go at making your own bar out of second-hand palettes, just like @athomeat31 did here. This is a quick, cheap, simple and rather brilliant garden bar idea – upcycling materials is a great way to lower costs, and your carbon footprint. Make it really yours by dedicating your bar to your favourite tipple – Soph and Lisa, the home decor gurus behind this Instagram account, clearly have a thing for gin.
3. The tiki bar
Transform your garden into a hot holiday destination with a stylish tiki bar. Laurie from @lifeofaninteriorstylist has styled her bar perfectly with fun and quirky accessories as well as tropical-themed outdoor glassware. If this doesn’t inspire you to add colour into your garden, we don’t know what will!

4. The rooftop garden bar
How beautiful is this flower-covered garden bar courtesy of @renovating_number_eleven? Mimic the look of a London rooftop bar by covering the top of your bar with trailing ivy or pretty blooms. Then luxe up your garden bar with stylish stools and brass accessories, et voila!
5. The small space bar
If you’re longing for a garden bar for those warm summer nights but don’t quite have the outdoor space, build you bar vertically up the wall with some clever shelving. You can make these bars out of anything (old crates work well) but if you’re not confident in making one yourself, a carpenter could knock you one up in no time.
