A budget-conscious, green-fingered woman has offered a brilliant solution for those seeking to give their garden an impressive revamp - without breaking the bank.

The clever gardening aficionado, known as @justlisaandlife on TikTok, showcased her cost-effective creation in an engaging 26-second clip, proclaiming: "This garden border cost us £14... old bricks, polysand, water and paracetamol for my husband's back!"

The end result drew waves of commendation from viewers, particularly for its minimal expense.

In her DIY tutorial, Lisa stated: "Okay, budget border, and this is good. I wanted something, but I didn't want to spend a fortune."

The savvy gardener explained she had enlisted her husband Gav to dig out a trench, lay down the bricks before adding polysand to fill the gaps, ending with a sprinkle of water.

She intends to instil in others the belief that beautifying your outdoor area needn't require substantial investment.

Praise for her frugal yet tasteful approach was forthcoming with comments such as "That looks so lovely and smart", "That polysand made quite the difference, it looks great! ", "Really pretty! Cottage vibes", "Oh wow, that's such a good idea", and simply "Wow".

Lisa said she wanted to achieve "cottage vibes" with her look, thanking fans for their compliments and saying the style was "so easy and looks brilliant".
