Every Thursday we like to post a picture of something we've found online that inspires us to do something similar at the farm. Sort of our own blog bulletin board so that we can eventually look back and someday, hopefully anyway, recreate it...enjoy!

Another sitting area. Kind of cute the way it's just a little spot, an arbor/trellis around it. We like anything that could become a focal point or a hidden discovery in some random spot on the property.
Again, we aren't going to be building these anytime soon, way too much else to do. But when we see something we like, we like to post it here as a way of saving it. And the idea of a couple of chairs tucked under a trellis surround by climbing and flowering vines is nice way to accomplish a hidden discovery.
Be inspired!
That is adorable and always nice to have different sitting areas throughout; providing a person as a spot for such things and with the space you have on the farm, you have many great choices to choose from on where and what you want your sitting areas to be.
ReplyDeleteWe'll get there, eventually, ha!
DeleteLet me point out the sedum joy, a succulent, is great because it does not need to be watered lots. Plus, it can sit there all winter and survive. I found three of those plastic chairs at a yard sale for $2 each. I paid $4 and a dozen fresh eggs for them. Then, after I decided they were too much to mow around, even stacked, and we could not arise from them, I gave them to a guy helping me. He painted them a nice gray and uses them still. I am not that fond of plastic chairs, but if you ever find one abandoned, spray paint it. The plant on the arbor looks like wisteria except it is red around the base. I wonder what it is. If it is wisteria, it will destroy the whole structure and strangle a chair in the process.
ReplyDeleteGreat info!!! Thank you! I saw some plastic chairs on the side of the road once in our old neighborhood, I bypassed them. I regret that now, ha. Thanks for the info as always.
DeleteVery pretty area. It wouldn't take much work to construct it.
ReplyDeleteIt did actually look pretty easy. I mean we could just take the idea, and find an arbor or trellis kit, put it together, and find a spot. We'll see!
Deletelooks like a great little area for not a lot of work, you could probably squeeze one of these in much sooner than you think.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great Easter :)
