- I am so thrilled to share with you the full 2021 Front Garden and Front Porch Transformation. This is the first year in our home so this year was really about establishing our garden beds with some of our favorite perennial plantings and definitely plenty of annual bloomers to make sure the garden looks lush even though it's just the beginning of our time here at our new (old) house. Our home was built in 1909 and features so many original and long-established plantings, that we felt it was best to clear out what was super common and replace and make garden beds that will really frame the house in a classic and lovely way.
Improving the curb appeal of a home simply frames the personality of the owner and also tells the story of the home and it doesn't have to be perfect and it also doesn't have to be expensive to achieve something beautiful. Even if a person doesn't know how to garden, the garden sometimes will create itself and tell you what it really likes and doesn't.
Hopefully, there is something here of value for you dear watcher, it was very much a process, but I love all of the possibilities we have created and can't wait to add more next spring... otherwise, it's pretty much just garden maintenance for the rest of the season. Have a great day and thank you for watching!
You have created a little masterpiece!!!!!
I love that you thrift.
The garden is sheer artistry. Beautiful.!!
Thank you for the inspiration! Just loved how you used the vines for your climbing plants. Your porch is inviting and comfortable without spending lots of money. Looking forward to more inspiration.
A cup of coffee and bingeing some of your videos I haven't watched yet is a beautiful way to start my day. Your enthusiasm and creativity is so refreshing. Thanks for the time and effort to put them out 💋
Wow, thank you! Love making these videos and sharing creativity. Thank you much your comment was so nice 😊
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
So incredibly beautiful! What a talent and creative eye you have. I love what you did with the grapevine
Beautiful outcome! Love what you’ve done!
Wow< you are incredibly talented, creative and hard working!!!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Perfection.
Absolutely georgeous!👏👏👏👏👏
Stunning!
Oh, I love your videos. Gardening was a favorite pass time until covid put me in a wheelchair.
I moved into an apartment and just this year discovered grow-bags. I'm fixing to plant some winter greens.
Thanks again for making me happy.❤
Awww ☺️ thank you. Hope your winter greens turn out great!
I could stare at that all day. I really like the porch, too.
So lovely. So clever all of your touches. Wonderful job. Love your dog.
Fargo (our dog) makes the world a better place.
Well done!! I left the city a few years ago I miss my front porch and how cozy I made it. Enjoy, possibility think of more native plants from your area, the native bees, insects, and birds will love you.
Totally, next year we are hopefully going to create a wild flower garden on our hillside! We have plenty of hummingbirds this year which is very pleasant. Thanks for watching!
What a cool setting!
So glad I found your channel 😮 I love it. Your narrative is great. Calm and explanatory. You are very creative and clever. Well done and thankyou 😊😊🦘🦘🦘
That’s so kind thank you!
Very nice!!
Thank you!!!!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Really liking how you styled the front porch
Me too! Of course a lot has changed, but the bones are all still there. Have a great day!
So Good!!!L❤
Love the stone boarders, you're lucky they're available in your area, free. I'm in Florida, ones in my area have to be purchased, expensive, sold by weight.
I’ve just binged watched your channel. All I can is wow!, You are extremely gifted and have impeccable taste. You’re my new favorite channel and I can’t wait for your next video. 👍🏿🤗😘
That’s amazingly kind of you and so glad you’ve enjoyed, so far… more to come. Be well and have a great day!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love your style. I'm going to have to watch this video several times to take it all in. Wonderful job. 😊
Awweee that’s so nice thank you!
Looks great! Whoever invented concrete scalloped edging needs to be fined. 😃 The grape vine frame really makes the space have a sense of place. The william morris like curtains just add the final touch. Subscribed!
Appreciate that so much!
Here's an idea. I too, hate those ugly scalloped edging stones. Since money was getting tighter on the project I budgeted for, I turned the scalloped stones upside down into the soil. It was a bit of a challenge to get each one level next to the other one but once that was achieved they were solid. After a couple months and the stones had some time to settle, those ugly scalloped stones were in the ground like poured concrete. The scalloped edging grabs hold of the soil making it hard for the stones to shift. Just an idea. 😊
Such a cozy place! Good job! 😊🪴
Thank you so much! Love porch-sitting! Have a great day!
I really think u could have a HGTV show!u r simply amazing!!❤
TH-cam is far more fun and gives the creators a lot of freedom in terms of timelines and what projects. Some of them are making more money than hgtv hosts. Honestly, would love to share more broadly, but this platform is honestly the best! Thanks for watching!
You did an amazing job, everything looks beautiful*
I’m not the thirsty type but I appreciate all the shirtless cuts 😂, but seriously awesome video and beautiful home!
Omg that me laugh! Thank you. 😂
Idk how I’ll be able to decide which porch to sit on!
there just too many... come help decide!
When the trumpet vine starts to seed (in pods) cut them and toss. It can become a pesky invasive pain.
Just found you today and now binge watching ❤❤❤❤❤❤
what is the name of the acrylic bonding agent that you used to mix with the concrete?
