    You might want to try using a tiller , so the grass can take root ... Be sure to put straw over the your seeds to help keep the bird's from eating them all ... Make sure you wet the ground ... Hope this helps !!!

    Julie, you did a beautiful job! As for your ground that won’t grow grass, you really need to till the ground up and work in some bags of potting soil to mediate the soil. It’s just got so much sand and clay in that area, plus the years of pine tree debris, it’s just depleted the soil and packed it down. After you do that, not sure if you grow Bahia grass in Texas, but it is virtually drought resistant. I had it in Florida and yes it would dry out & turn brown during the no rain and lots of heat but, if it rains, it comes right back. So, there’s another project for you & hubby. 😂😂😂😂 You really did make a huge difference, looks great. 😊❤😊❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

    Looks great...so fresh and clean! Those bricks can be turned to fit into each other. Put one down and turn the next one in the opposite direction so the sides lineup and they have a close fit. Hard to explain but if you play around with them you will probably figure it out. They are designed to fit next to each other in a coordinated way. Good luck!

    As you were filming with newer pavers, I was saying to myself…. Just make a pattern to incorporate the new ones. That way they don’t look out of place. We did our landscaping with them many years ago. The landscape timbers were rotten & we just did those instead. We have around our tree trunks too & I planted hosta & day Lilly for no maintenance. We used lava rock instead of mulch. I do love the white rock you chose. I’m a doer too. I hate to wait when I want it done. It’s immediately or faster. 😂

    @daynasumler5536 День назад

    Nice project! As far as where you can't grow grass, have you considered just adding pretty brown gravel. A lot of yards use decorative gravel in places grass struggles to grow or in place of having more grass to mow. Just a thought. 😊

    Love the power tools. I don;t think Lowes carries the brand that we use, but our youngest son bought us Ryobi battery powered tools as housewarming gift 6 years ago. We also have some of his other lawn care items because he is living with friends and his tools and such are in storage in our garage, I love the blower and the weed eater, especially. He also bought us a Ryobi bug zapper, and a mini chains saw for Mothers and Fathers day... they even have a ryobi lawnmower now! I can do them myself like you said, and some of my husbands tools are SO heavy! Creeping thyme may work for your area where grass won't grow....

    I really like the outdoor equipment you picked out. I have been thinking about getting a battery powered blower that I can handle, now you have encouraged me to get it. Since you mentioned the grass not growing in that spot, try a ground cover instead. I think something like ajuga would be great, it doesn't take much and it fills in fast with pretty spring time blooms as a bonus.

    Julie that small area is so cute and peaceful. We have the big white rocks along side half of the front of the house and on each side of walkway to the door. It was done like this when we bought the house. I have seen several videos where you put the white rocks tap them down and pour some kind of glue like substance and its like cement after. My husband just gives me the eye. It does feel so good to get projects done around the house. I have one planned similar to your but with an antique water pump and landscape timbers. But its a slow go. Getting down is my problem. Need a forklift to help me up. Weak back and knees. I enjoyed the video. And I was gonna say, I am like you, I love to do stuff myself and hate waiting for someone else. Those babies had to check out what you were doing. And yes, still praying for the lost baby to return. Great job

    Great transformation! We actually just bought the same blower from Lowes last week. This is our 2nd Ego product and we really like the way you can use the batteries too. We have a wrap around porch that is way to much to sweep and especially when it's hot. Now it only takes but about 10 minutes or so to blow it off. Feels good to get things accomplished!!
