But here we are to bust this myth by giving you some easy terrace garden ideas which demand minimum efforts, and are budget-friendly.
The first step to make your terrace place look stylish and comfortable is by adding a small, quirky table and some chairs. Here you can easily relax, and enjoy a cup of your coffee or tea.

You can add a small flower vase, a cute goody basket to store a few essentials, and some candles for the night, and amplify the whole decor aesthetic of the place.
