DIY Gazebo Succulent Hanging Planter On Thursday it was a beautiful day until a storm started brewing bringing 50-mile-per-hour winds. It was the middle of the afternoon, but it was so dark it looked like evening. The sky looked kind of creepy but beautiful as well. I was hunkered down out in my workroom (which was formerly my guest house) working on a couple of projects. The wind was howling outside, but I continued working away knowing it would soon {Read More}

Hiding an Air Conditioner with a Clematis Garden Arbor Do you have any ugly eyesore outside of your house? What do you do about it? For us, it’s a window unit air conditioner that hangs outside the guest house. It’s dented on the outside and sticks out like a sore thumb. It can be seen from the entrance of our house and looks so ugly! We don’t have a small window inside the guest house so my husband had to {Read More}

My Plans for a Secret Garden Patio in Unused Yard Space
May 14, 2018 by 15 Comments
My Plans for a Secret Garden Patio in Unused Yard Space It’s a good thing the back of our garage isn’t visible to anyone except us, because it’s an embarrassing sight. It’s a junk storage zone, complete with two huge antique windows, a gas can, a broken bike, a broken storm door, some sheet metal, two kayaks, and lots of trash. If you stand on the side of my guest house, right in front of my garden with my vintage {Read More}
