Outdoor Landscape

Using stain, lanterns, and a couple accent pots you can completely transform an outdoor space!

Black Mulch: Menards (Big Box Retailer) ...»

Red Pots: 27" Walmart

Lanterns: Misc stores (all were under $20 - Home Goods, Pier One, Garden Ridge)

You can learn more details about how I transformed the space from my blog.

Keep The Bugs Out Of My Food Please!

What's more fun than eating outside in the summertime! I found this great idea on my Facebook for putting your summer food out in Jars (an you know how we all need more justification for more jars ;-)

  • Finished walkway with red decomposed grant.
  • Added more rocks to the low end of walk way next to driveway.
  • Continued rocks around bushes and added mulch.
  • Added rocks and a broken cement fountain to the low end of the walkway to keep water from washing away the soil.  This is a typical desert landscape for Arizona.

Sand Stone Walk Way

My sister had a narrow walk way and the soil around it was eroding away at the far end. So I used the dirt in the back yard to fill in the low areas around the sidewalk. The soil is very ...»
sandy so I didn't have to buy sand to level the stones she already had in her backyard. I used a level to make sure the sidewalk was level and the stones next to it level. We bought a 100 pounds of red decomposed grant for $15 and had some left over for another project. I placed her red concrete scalped edging over to the side and around the back to keep the dirt from washing down the yard. I also used an old concrete fountain that I broke up and placed in the ground to keep the low side from shifting or washing down a slopped yard. I finished with rocks around the bushes and added mulch to provide ground cover and nourishment for the bushes. All the rocks came from the desert. Now the walk way looks like the red rocks of Sedona, AZ.

Materials:

100 lbs X Decomposted red granite - $28.00
