It’s hard to believe it was more than 3 years ago that we wrote this post about our nursery closet. We only made some small changes at the time… but would you believe this post is one of our most-visited posts?! We get tons of traffic here!
DIY Tiered Herb Garden Tutorial. Great for decks and small outdoor spaces!
On Monday we shared our new herb garden for our deck. Today we're going to show you how to make your own tiered herb garden.
This herb garden is great for small spaces and decks. We decided to grow our herbs on our deck because the neighborhood deer have decided to mow down on anything and everything in our yard this year. I think the culprits are these two cute faces. Ike and I think they are adorable but stay away from my plants, fools. I've put Ike on deer watch now in addition to herb garden duty. I should also put him on hydrangea duty. My hydrangeas had about 20 beautiful blooms. I went out to snip off a few and GONE. ALL GONE. I lost my marbles and bought some deer deterrent product (all natural, won't harm anyone). We have a huge wooden area right behind our house. Eat that already!
How a Girl Built a Gate
It’s true! I built our gate all by myself. I’ve been asked several questions about my gate, so I thought I would share how I made it.
My husband and I had just finished building the fence. (I give him credit for all the labor-intensive work there. I just held fence pickets.) Unfortunately, we weren’t able to get the gate built before our weekend was over.

Choosing and adding mulch to flower beds is a good habit to get into to preserve the look and health of your landscape and flower beds. Mulching your landscape is inexpensive and is one of the easiest jobs you can do as a homeowner. Mulch helps to moderate soil temperature and retain soil moisture which is good for the health of your plants. Adding a layer of mulch to your flower beds also improves the appearance of your beds and suppresses weed growth. Additionally organic mulches provide nutrients to your plants as they breakdown. Before you start it helps to understand the different types of mulch available, as well as how much mulch to use and when to apply it.
