Finding Wonderland: Fantasy Filled Exteriors
Sauntering through a dreamy canopy of lacy foliage and fronds can be transporting, a true reverie. It's no surprise that a whimsy patio, that lets you rest peacefully beneath the natural grace of trees and palms, is a worthwhile project. All you need is nature’s charm and some creativity to recreate Alice’s fantasy world (without the anthropomorphic creatures, of course).
Inveigling a lush understory of exquisite chartreuse euphorbias, aromatic herbs and soft grasses is fairly viable. Just give attention to shape, fringe and colors. The do-it-yourselfer will find the following images a good reference to start the project. If your budget allows it, find the right landscape designer by browsing designer portfolios, asking about their design aesthetics and printing this ideabook as a sample of your vision. Until then, enjoy this outdoor utopia in pictures, and don’t be afraid to get inspired by childhood memories of Peter Pan's Neverland.

Although a lot of work was put on this garden, it seems like it was naturally created. I love the grassy stairs and artifully placed lamp that suggests feelings of centuries past.
Can you see Alice's White Rabbit? This patio looks like it was pulled from a fairy tale. The abundance of flowers, grass and trees work marveously to conceive a piece of paradise.
Beautifully compiled, this patio reflects two important fantasy aspects: unpolished gardens and rustic construction. Together, they form a wildly attractive yard.
Water acts as a soothing element throughout a garden. This exotic mini pond conveys the calming characteristics of nature while the cascade adds layers of relaxing sounds.
Giant flowers are a perfect addition to a fanciful patio. The bigger, the dreamier. I like the idea of surrounding oneself with nature like this. It makes you feel much more closer to it.
This simple yard lacks no mirage thanks to the positioning of the trees and their airy look. It's a surreal image that captivates, and transports.
Bring the spirit of wonderland inside with a spectacular forest inpsired wallpaper. White gives a fantasia air to this room, while its simple desk and chair serve as the balancing act.
