So Hubby and I ran out to my Uncles and grabbed and Federal style buffet and a dining table and 6 chairs.

Once this buffet was in my garage, I couldn't let her sit and wait. The next morning I pulled out my belt sander and started working on her in my Pajamas....

Well, making the mistake I always make; I painted it a color that I love! I mixed up a custom green I like to call "garden gate". Once I started painting I kept thinking.."I want to keep it" Not sell it..well...Hubby came home and said the same thing..LOL.

So we now have a new BAR in our basement for entertaining.

definition between public spaces in your yard and private spaces add to making your yard much more functional and aesthetically pleasing. Compare your 'outdoor rooms' with those inside your home; it's nice to have clear definition between the foyer, living room kitchen (public in a sense) and home office, den and bedrooms (the private). The in between space we refer to as the "Transition Zone." With in the 'transition zone' there should exist a clear demarcation that you are moving from one space to the next... "The Threshold." The most evident place for the transition from the front/public to the back/private is located in the side yard. Usually a space that is neglected, unused and only occupied when you're mowing the lawn.

The "Classic Cedar Pergola" was designed to create the entrance to the backyard... The Threshold. To assist in the creation of privacy, custom cedar panels were installed to the "Classic Cedar Pergola." From a distance it appears as a fence and the site line to the backyard is interrupted. The clay paver path zig-zags through the pergola establishing a smooth pedestrian flow. Privacy is established. The side yard is no longer a barren wasteland. The overall feeling of space is increased.

The design concept and project were created by Sr. Landscape Designer Glenn! Switzer. Glenn! is a member of the Association of Professional Landscape Designers. Landscape Structures: Arbors and Pergolas by Switzer's http://www.switzersnursery.com/what-we-do/la...
