Sometimes, we all have the tendency to make things more
complicated than what they need to be. We are all guilty of it. What we’ve
found out here at Vivid Earth Land Designs is that Homeowners at times are no
different. They can sometimes find themselves in this predicament when the
topic of water features enters the picture. We understand how Water Features can
completely change how customers experience their own backyard. So, we’d like to
bring forth some simple reasons as to why you should consider adding one to
your own personal space.
Making
Your Backyard One of a Kind
Even though people have included water features in their
backyards for decades, it’s truly not seen as a back yard staple just yet. We
are more likely to see a garden, whether big or small, or a fire pit before we
see a small pond or water fountain. How is this relevant? Adding a water
feature immediately sets your house apart from the rest. You will have a pep in
your step knowing even just a small water fountain can make your backyard untouchable.
If you want to set yourself apart from your neighbors, water features are the
way to go!
Soothing
Sounds
Water truly has the unique ability to calm and mellow out
our minds and bodies. YouTube, for example, has plenty of rain sound
videos with millions of views. You can find other water-based videos such as
Pond sounds or Bamboo Water Fountain sounds to showcase the popularity of
hearing water in different ways. Through water features, you can experience the
millions of people enjoy listening to by simply walking outside.
The soothing power of water is real and through water
features, Vivid Earth Land Designs can help bring this power to your backyard.
Imagine sitting down in a lawn chair next to a small water fountain after a
rough day. You close your eyes and let the trickling sounds hitting the base of
the fountain take over. It truly is a comforting experience!
Getting
Wild with Wildlife
Another underrated component that water features offer is
the ability to attract wildlife. Depending on your unique set up, you can
foster your own unique ecosystem with its own character and personality. Bird
baths and waterfalls can bring birds to leisurely wash themselves in the water.
Dragonflies may be seen darting around the surface of your small pond. You
might even find frogs or another type of amphibian making your water feature
its home one day. If this sounds intriguing, adding a water feature might be
for you!
We hope that we’ve illustrated just how adding a water
feature can brighten up your garden, especially if the goal is to set yourself
apart from others. Outside of a pool, many people never think about adding a
water component to their backyards. It’s just how it is. The perks, however,
are undeniable. Just ask anyone that already has a water feature in their
backyard. If this blog did its job and got your mind working, feel free to contact us to schedule your
water feature consultation!
