dreaming...

...one thing I do well....is dream...

My current reverie is a fantasy backyard...
a fantasy that, I believe, has realistic expectations...

I love to create intimate settings with
'vanishing thresholds'
(I stole that phrase from a blog I love)
...sort of like a vignette, I think...
So...here are some of the 'bones' for which I visualize my
'outdoor room':
...this is the arch that Uncle Chris salvaged from sure ruination...
(my design was good but my flesh was inadequate...or...
...welding is much harder than it looks...)


...here is what it needs to look like...(of course there will not be a forest)

...the next 'real' project will be a patio trellis...this is the future spot...
and here is the potential... (I have a good imagination don'tcha think?)

...what's next???...maybe a little decor...
...how about one of these???
(don't you love the cupboard...)

...and/or this...

...maybe some sheers...

...and a few of these...

...and something like these...(lanterns)

...and there you have it...
...another dream come true...

  2. Come down and work on my backyard when you are finished! It is HUGE and you could have a GREAT time! There's room for a pool and a tennis court and whatever else you can dream up! But first I need A BUNDLE OF MONEY! I am unlike you... I have NO IDEAS... just lots of space! I am surprised you like spending time outdoors in the heat you live in!!!
