It’s no big secret around here that I love gardening. And I’d like to think I do a pretty decent job of turning lackluster gardening spaces into pretty nice ones on a budget.
To put it simply, the garden space in front of the studio needs a complete makeover. Like BIG TIME. Actually the whole studio needs a bit of a makeover, but today we’re just going to talk about the garden. 😉
I don’t know about you, but I think for those of us that love to garden, making an outdoor space your own, is kind of a big deal. For me, it’s just as important as the inside of a house.
And unfortunately, I am not a fan of azaleas, daylilies or sea roses {the only three plants on the property} and so they all had to go.
Lucky for me though, my head gardener agreed and was willing to rip them out for me. We briefly thought about digging up the sea roses but the roots were too big and too much of a hassle.
The day lilies, while easier to dig up, are pretty much treated like a weed around here so there was no sense of bothering with those either.
Fact: The Sawzall is one of the best tools ever invented.
A clean slate. Just what I wanted. It only took us two days to pull out all the plants and now that it’s done, we can figure out how we’re going to remove all that cement.
We might have to call in a professional for that… But at least it’s a start.
To be continued…
