Studio garden update

I was able to manage getting a climber for the vintage door. It is Jasmine and smells wonderful. I removed the screening and shabily sprayed the metalwork so that it would stand out a bit more. There is also new hawaiian floral fabric for the chair but I have been waiting about two years to get the seat put in so we'll move on for now.

The new studio garden patio

 Here are a couple of before and during shots of the new garden area we are building. You will see that we took down a very large scrub tree that was left to grow out of control. This does mean that a lot of shade is now gone that was quite nice during our hottest months here. Nonetheless this ugly tree is gone now to be replaced by some very nice natural light.

This area is right outside of my workroom and is my new view while working. Tim did a great job on the patio area, thanks honey. This screen dooris a favorite of mine, it was saved from a pile of trash in Pensacola after hurricane Ivan blew through town. I am undecided if it should be left outside to weather but really have not found a great place for it inside. What do you think? Do you see the little bird within the metalwork?

It has been a long time since I have been in the garden, my skin itches and breaks out but this is worth it so far.
