I bought my abandoned house several years ago and can honestly say you will NEVER be DONE!! You learn stuff along the way that increases your knowledge base so then you're willing to try even more things to replace or add to what you previously did. But overall I LOVE what you have done so far!! Great job!! Oh yes, I saged my house as well. It couldn't hurt!! 🤣😂
usually the ugly side of the fence should face your yard unless you live in an hoa community or other restrictions. the reason is if someone wanted to get into your yard you just gave them easy access. if the pretty side was on the outside the criminal would have to turn around and get a ladder or something else. no offense meant. the patio looks great. i never knew those pavers could be put on the ground like that. so if you dont mind pulling weeds dont worry about this comment. heavy duty fabric before you put the gravel down would have been helpful.
@@spicynomad I had that option when I first had it installed. The guy who installed it suggested, I have the pretty side facing in since the outside is surrounded by thornbushes and other obstacles.
Hello, new subscriber here. I love how you redesigned your backyard. I am trying to decide how to bring my back and side yards to life. I was thinking about putting rocks on top of the garden fabric down. But looking at your gravel, I was wondering if it would be a better choice. Thanks for sharing.
I made the mistake of not laying down the fabric before the gravel so I've got vines growing through already. Sometimes I rush to get things done. I'd love to see what you do.
@@thathippielookingchick I hope to record a before and after. It will take a little longer to get it done because I live in Florida and it extremely hot at the age of 74, I have to take my time.
Paint the fence around your air conditioner same as decking and fence. Get better dolly wagon for yard. Burn every wood you can, I like the border beds and you can ar kill weeds when needed.

Thank you! I'm enjoying the process, but I know I'll never be truly done. lol
Love ❤ Get a pink dogwood tree and plant off to the side. It will grow nicely and you can hang bird feeders.
The flowers are called Surprise Lilies or Naked Ladies.
Good job!
Thanks!
Beautiful
Thank you!
