Garden and fence makeover

I didn’t spend a lot of time in my backyard so decided to make it a little more inviting. I painted my fence blue!! Added fairy lights and viola!! Bliss!! 

Materials

Paint, paintbrushes and tray from Bunnings. Also, built a retaining wall and filled it with soil from Bunnings! 

Tools

Paint brush

paint brush tray

paint

Drill

Shovel

Steps

Step 1

Did three coats of paint just to be on the safe side even though 1 was enough. Built a retaining wall, added soil, then easy to maintain plants. Built a fireplace with the remaining bricks from the retaining wall.

Re: Easy to Maintain Garden

Hi @tanya245,

 

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for sharing your garden project.

 

I absolutely love it! 

 

The blue fence is a fantastic backdrop to a wonderful little garden sanctuary. 

 

This looks like the perfect place to kick back on a Sunday afternoon with a book or a Friday night with a little fire.

 

Thank you for sharing and congratulations on a job well done.

 

Jacob
