'pockets' for planting small herbs, ground covers, moss, hen'n'chicks, etc. I've painted the cinder blocks for a more uniform look... and to add a bit of color.

me. It was for sale the day I moved in and the yard had been left to go wild. I could see a medium size mill stone thrown with the debris in the back yard, but I successfully resisted removing it for three months (when the house sold...lmao!). It wasn't very large...lol.

cute!

to regularly find stuff... have thus far resisted the urge to buy brand new... but... I dunno... there are some sweet little brightly colored plastic chairs... doll size... I may have to buy a few. (I'm telling myself they'd make great small shelves to hold a flower pot on the fence. My 'self', however, keeps saying, "This is SUPPOSED to be recycling... not buying more junk!" (garage sales don't count...)

English Ivy... I just wanted to be sure you didn't think you could use regular houseplant ivy... sun, heat, and cold would likely kill it. Also... devil's ivy, although not great for a ground cover, is prolific, spreads well, comes in many varieties... beautiful mottled leaf on some... I have it growing in the space between the concrete patio floor and my house... abt a one INCH strip of soil! It is gorgeous most of the year (Houston, Texas... so quite warm most of the year).

I love yard art... so... closing with a neat hubcap teepee... not mine... just a neat bit of folk art... wouldn't this be fun as a family project!

tire wasted! :)
