Decide what you wan to keep and remove everything that is not to be kept.
Make a list of things you would like to do with the garden. Refine the list to your priorities.
Match your priority list to different parts of the garden and judge how these relate to each other and move the different feaures around until you are happy with their placement.
Assess what resources are available, money and time. Work out a schedule for each feature depending on the resources needed for each. Then begin with the most important priority.
