Back Yard Spruce Up
I was tired of fighting the weeds around my pool. I dug and dug every spring just to do it again and again. So I decided to win this fight with some weed barrier and rock. I believe it looks so much better and maintenance is almost at zero. This makes me very happy!
First I weeded for I hope the last time. Then added weed barrier and then rocks I purchased at my local rock and stone place. Took some 18 x 18 cement patio stones that I found dirt cheap on my favorite site VarageSale (check it out) and painted them random colors and put them down for a pop of color. I took some old pots I had and gave them a good spray painting to add more color pop! It took me and my son a couple weekends to do this but so worth the work!!
Best natural weed killer!
This is during the process.
Then the end result..
Hope this inspires you to get that yard done!

Back breaking work but if this doesn't work for long I would buy some rolled sod and call it a day. Lol. Add some big pots with flowers instead 😀
