Eye Sore of Our Home: Edition Two: The Weed Garden

For those of you who have been to our house, you may have seen Eye Sore #2 - what I like to call the Weed Garden. Originally a sand pit for kids to play in, Rob and I just didnt know what to do with it. Although the dog sure liked laying in it.
After living here for three years, it finally came to me - fill it with bark chips and some decorate plants and....done! After some convincing, Rob came around to the brilliance of my idea as well ;)

Step One: Convince dog to take a picture with the weeds:


Step Two: Put tarp on weeds:


Step Three: Put bark on tarp. Or rather get husband to put bark on tarp as you weed the front gardens.


Step Four: Have said husband pose with his work...


Step Five: Stick some decorative potted plants in the bark...and...DONE!!!

It looks lurvely! Nice work, Meg! Of course, Rob gets SOME credit for doing the work, but really, you were the visionary!
