Ever run out of money towards the end of a room makeover? I did and look what I came up with for the curtain rod in my daughter's room! Whimiscal, fun, and nearly free!

  • Isn't this edge pretty? Trust me, this is very easy to do. All you need are three tools you likely already have on hand. 6
  • This was the before. Does this look more like what you have in your own yard? Let's fix this right up!
  • This is a simple half moon edger. Make a nice fresh cut along the grass part of your edges in a nice smooth arc.
  • Once the cut is made, trench out the soil with a hand held garden shovel and mound it away from the edge. Trim the grass along the edge horizontally and vertically to get that nice crisp haircut look.
  • The trench allows for water run off and soil falling, and the shadow just creates a really dazzling finish. 3
  • I created a fun little chart that displays the process a little better. Come check out all 4 steps as well as many other after shots at:
