Woohoo! It’s almost summer, folks. Can you feel it? Beach days? Popsicles? Kids swinging from the rafters? My girls and I can’t wait to soak in every bit of summer, and we’ve been working hard over the past month to prepare the front yard of Our DIY House for optimal summertime enjoyment. I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t have a green thumb whatsoever, but this year I vowed to myself and my family that I would find one.
I wanted to work as hard as I could to get our front yard looking happy and welcoming and ready for summer. With the help of The Home Depot and some truly gold advice from my gardening savvy friends and family, I’ve created a low maintenance flower bed in front of our home that will be perfect for my non green thumbness. It’s romantic looking, it’s zone 3 hardy, and I want to share with you how I created it today along with some more photos of the exterior progress on Our DIY House.
