Or paint them a shade that complements the planters in your garden.
The concrete wall offers a strong base and a great place to add hooks for towels and accessories.
Choose a wide color palette for the most impactful end result.

With a few dark gray blocks and white stones in the center, this DIY looks ultra-modern when complete.
