Take a look at these DIY garden arch ideas and choose one that best fits your needs and style. You don't have to put the arch in the garden either, these also look great in a yard or even on a deck. A garden arch is similar to an arbor and has many of the same benefits as a pergola and trellis.

Garden arches are great for a few different reasons. First, they give plants and vegetables the vine support to grow up and over them, and they also provide some shade which will be useful if you're outside, relaxing. Lastly, they'll give your garden or yard some extra decor, so you can entertain guests outside during the warmer seasons.

Here are 13 charming garden arch ideas you can DIY.
