It seems as if we have once again, shared our home and garden, with builders, for a considerable period of time. But we haven’t really – it’s only been four months – but we’ve been so keen and excited to get to the finishing line, that it just seems like we’ve lived in construction chaos for a long time. It’s now all done at the rear of the house – the last lick of paint has been applied, the last payment tranche has been made and the plants and sunbeds and accessories are all in place. And finally being used! I suppose we should be delighted that all work has finished, but it never really does, does it? And, so the builders are back – this time tackling the steps and small balcony at the front of the house. An area which should have been done way back, as the steps are horrible, the concrete has cracks in it and the balcony has no wall, so anyone could take a tumble. But anyway, back to the rear of the house and how our beautiful garden emerged…
Next up. How we designed and filled our Mediterranean inspired garden…
