A big week for the curb appeal at the ol' Ellington house. And we are very excited to share it with yall. It is not quite finished but definitely getting there!
We used our leftover bricks to build our patio out behind the side porch. It turned out so good. We look forward to some fun cookouts spent out there. We also used brick for walkways and our driveway (which is my favorite).
AND... we have grass!! Sod was laid at the end of this week. Really changes the look of the house. Now we just need to finish the sod in the backyard and then we will start picking out bushes and flowers! I am not very good at this so I am up for any suggestions from my gardener friends out there.

ReplyDeleteit looks so good! i love all the brick! i wish i knew more about flowers :( but the lowes near you carries plants that do well in your area so they would probably be a lot of help. Can't wait to see all the plants and flowers :)
