Once you choose the site of your gazebo the fun
begins.
- Will you add electricity and plumbing?
- How about ornamental fountains or adding a
fish pond or birdbath?
Before choosing your spot be sure and keep in
mind the seasonal advantages and drawbacks for the area you have
chosen.
- Do you have high winds in the summer, or heavy
amounts of snow in winter? - What type of landscaping will you choose
? - Will you use plants, vines, shrubs or trees to
accent the area?
All of these things need to be considered before
choosing your gazebo.
Gazebos can be constructed from many types of
natural cedars and pines and there are many styles available using vinyl
or other synthetic materials.

Because of the popularity of gazebos, you are now
able to personalize and design your garden gazebo in any way you desire.
Whether buying a garden gazebo do-it-yourself kit or having your gazebo
constructed by a professional, be sure and use your imagination when
planning your personal garden gazebo get-a-way. Also keep in mind if you
have enough space in your garden area, why limit yourself to just one?
N. B. When building a gazebo, it might be necessary to get
planning permission or a building permit and the utilities installed
inspected e.g. In Texas it is that way IF the gazebo is inside the city limits.
