Atleast, I think it was Dee, of Dee's Doodles, who sanely suggested using stakes and string to give me straight edges for laying the concrete border in my long flower bed ! I took her advice today, and it worked out really well !
I'm finally resting, but hubby and I started at about 9 a.m. this morning, measuring things off, driving stakes, and using red acrylic yarn for our string.
By working in spurts, with a rest inbetween, he was able to put a few borders at a time in the wheelbarrow, and deliver them to the flower bed.
We made quite a team today, I tell you !
The pieces are all in place, but darkness fell before I finished pushing the dirt back into place around them all.
I think that this is going to look quite nice.......I'm excited, and thankful for the strength to do it and the good working comraderie ! Praise GOD !
I want to make a note here that hubby had his quarterly bloodwork done today.





Oh, this is beautiful! That was a hint from a gardening book I read a long, long time ago! LOL Glad it was able to help you all out! Love the pictures and can't wait to see the flowers come up!
