e my attemp at a wooden patio for next summer

Laying the sleepers, and top dressing our lawn, phew a lot of work😰

Sleepers are dug in 1/2 way and 1/2 inch X11 foot long rods driven in either end to hold in place for when the car needs to park on it.

sew the lawn seed now just waiting for it to grow. Wish me luck,🍀

In the back ground more home talk ideas, shade sails ,planterboxes on fence, I'm totally obsessed with home talk as you can see.

thank you for all your wonderful ideas , regards Bec and co 😎
