Befores and Afters


(Our 'William Baffin' roses pictured above are real climbers!)
We all enjoy a good before and after comparison. I like looking back at the transformation of our own home. Neglected and bland,  the owner had never moved in as he was transferred out the country before completion. Right away I had a vision of what we could create with this little 'cottage' in the city....

 Have you been documenting the improvements to your own home? It's a wonderful way to realize your accomplishments and hard work. Also, it makes a lovely set of memories for if you ever move. Give it a try! Happy gardening, renovating, decorating or landscaping this weekend!
