A Little Garden Makeover.


Bird's-eye view of my 22ft. X 11ft. garden after the makeover:






Read the little makeover story here:


The worker at the hardware shop where I bought sixty, cheap sand bricks from some weeks back could not imagine how these, to him, most ordinary and unattractive sand bricks could make a garden looked great when I told him I was going to use them for a little makeover in my small garden.


Sand bricks - ready for the makeover:




It was not surprising he could not imagine it. For after all, these bricks were not made for decoration purposes.  


But, why, you might wonder. Why did I choose these bricks and not those more decorative ones like granite or red bricks etc. ? 


Well, I had two distinct reasons. These bricks were super cheap in cost ( only RM 0.24 per piece ) and look, and they came in the colour I wanted. So, they should perfectly blend in into my ordinary looking, concrete, patio garden. Or so I thought.


I was right. The outcome was really good. To me, at least. Using them to edge the pot areas had indeed enhanced the overall look of my rectangular-shaped, concrete, patio garden.


The garden looked much more beautiful and neater than before. Not that I dislike an unorganized or a wild-looking one. But that, having it neat, just seemed most appropriate for mine. 

Before:



After:



And, with another twelve new pots added to it recently that resulted in the construction of a new pot area ( right in front of the garden's exit ), awaiting to be planted up, the garden is going to look even more fantastic and full soon! Hopefully!

All for now! Thank you for reading this! Bye!
