Artfully distressed or rusted iron and steel offer Artfully distressed or rusted iron and steel offer a rustic charm, while metals such as bronze or copper can add a glamorous touch to an outdoor area.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Here is a recent picture of our Glen Waverley project completed in 2015 using custom corten steel panels which double up as a lightbox.💚
Wherever life plants you, bloom with grace.⁠⁠ Wherever life plants you, bloom with grace.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ A French proverb which is quite well known. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ It sounds simple, but carries a lot of meaning. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ No matter where you are settled, there is always that bit of fear within you of the what ifs and the unknown in the windy road that is life. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Wherever you feel called, know that there is beauty in being rooted. There is beauty in accepting where you are – even if it’s only for a season. There is even more beauty when you learn to thrive. 💚
"Art" ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ the expression or application "Art" ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Art is of course is open to interpretation.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ I loved this creation so I thought I'd finally share it as it gave such joy both to my youngest and I when we spotted it on a way back from a client's.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ This was when lockdown was finally eased up in Melbourne in November 2020 and we could travel beyond the 5kms restriction. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Very thankful to the person or family that created this! 💚
Why not create a vege nook in an unused corner in Why not create a vege nook in an unused corner in your garden?⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ In creates a win-win situation all round. Bountiful healthy, organic harvest to be shared with family and friends and has made use of a neglected space!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ As you can see from the picture you can make use of both built in garden beds or simply use portable pots to boost your harvest! ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Bundoora project completed in 2015! Still creating bounty for my lovely clients! 💚
What are the benefits of pathway lights?⁠⁠ ⁠ What are the benefits of pathway lights?⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ In addition to leading the way in the dark, pathway lights offer other benefits, including:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💡Home security.⁠⁠ 💡Protection of path border plants from being trampled on.⁠⁠ 💡Marking path boundaries.⁠⁠ 💡Highlighting your favourite low garden plants.⁠⁠ 💡Added curb appeal.⁠⁠ 💡Ambient lighting for garden entertaining.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 💚
A different view of the humble fig? ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ A different view of the humble fig? ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Or as my close friends will say, my overactive imagination!!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Love this shot of their fan shaped leaves as they remind me of an Indian dancer spinning around!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ What do you see in your garden using your imagination? 💚
Food Forest Gardens ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ "Forest gardenin Food Forest Gardens ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ "Forest gardening is a low-maintenance, sustainable, plant-based food production and agroforestry system based on woodland ecosystems, incorporating fruit and nut trees, shrubs, herbs, vines and perennial vegetables which have yields directly useful to humans. Making use of companion planting, these can be intermixed to grow in a succession of layers to build a woodland habitat." From Wikipedia⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ A little bit of a mouthful but essentially the idea is to provide good, healthy food from your own garden to the table for you to enjoy and by those you love!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ This is the idea behind this compact front yard designed for our clients in Glen Huntly constructed in December 2020!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Moving on their backyard sunken garden soon! 💚
Flowers are evidence enough that the rain will end Flowers are evidence enough that the rain will end, the clouds will part, and spring will always come, no matter the difficult winter that precedes it.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ There is beauty when you learn to thrive. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ To accept the challenges that are thrown at you and to convert them into opportunities to learn from!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Look out to your garden and take the positivity within! 💚
Bringing the outdoors in. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ One of my Bringing the outdoors in. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ One of my 2020 designs I absolutely LOVE!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Not only because it was a fun experience designing it but also that I achieved what my clients where looking for - looking through their big windows to beautiful garden views and tall trees for privacy! ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Design & plantscaping by me!⁠⁠ Construction by the client!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Professional pictures coming soon!💚
