Patchwork Patio design

Hi Chris, I thought about what you said on coming to sit on your patio to get a feel of it. I had this Patchwork Patio idea in my head but did not actually know what it was going to look like. I did my research on the tiles and pebble prices and found everything at Cape Garden Centre. The prices were the best by far and got everything – I mean everything – under R900.00. I even got all the tiles and stones and plants in my Fiat Uno. I was worried about my suspension but she managed all the way home. But before the great trek to the Garden Centre, I marked out the area to see the actual layout and my clever hubby took a snapshot of it and designed it quickly for me in Photoshop!! This was the breakthrough I needed.

Check out this clever movie on the design layout of my Patchwork Patio ….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And here are the photo’s of the actual work done to get it looking like this. I am so pleased with it! It literally took me two days to do this from start to finish. I have also been lucky with the weather. My back area is really beginning to look like a real garden….. I hope you enjoy this as much as I have ….. What have you been doing in your garden?

Country living is the best! Being a true spirit of the earth, my garden is all about vegetables and fruit trees and herbs and chickens roaming free. I was keen to really start gardening when we moved to Philadelphia in 2005, but not your typical suburban-type garden – sterile and bug-free! I wanted an edible garden.

Thanks my buddy! So glad you like it! Now to get the plants in …. 🙂 we need to do some serious shopping.

I like what hubby did in Photoshop. I do this for clients too so they can quickly see alternatives. Your patchwork bed looks really great. The garden is really developing fast and each post has so much more to see each time. Looking forward to more.

Thank you Donna – I really appreciate your continuous support and you inspire me, so thanks again!!

Hi Greggo, I planted Cynodon grass in my grass patch. You can see the post on the grasspatch in an earlier post. There you can also contact the supplier.
