Question: Could you put a little bridge going over the dry creek bed instead of stepping stones? That would be so romantic 😍
Was thinking exactly the same
Wood gazebo draw your eye down to wood bridge.
Stepping stones would just color meld into dry creek bridge and not show up. Or get some really dark dark stepping stones for contrast.
I love this idea!
I mean the wood bridge idea!!!
I want a pea gravel drive way eventually!❤😊
I really like the wood chips around the Vego beds!
Thanks Lisa!!
Looks good! Have you thought about putting in a small bridge over the creek instead of stepping stones? You can make one very easily and inexpensively with a couple of pallets. It would soften the look of the garden.
I don’t know how you fall asleep because you must be so excited for what each new day brings to beautify your property! The dry creek bed is just the coolest and when the gazebo will be added, well that will just be the most enchanting garden ever!
Had to tell you Janey that I received a survey from Proven Winners and one of the questions was who do I follow for perennial information and inspiration and they had your name and channel on their list. So proud of you!!!! ❤️🇨🇦
Janey -
You can make a PALLET BRIDGE (not so expensive) to go over your dry creek bed. That’ll be a great project for you & Jason 🪴
Also, reuse ♻️ the soil around the chicken coop area where you want to plant more stuff…
Interesting! I've never heard of a pallet bridge, I'll have to look into it thanks!!
It’s amazing how much the property has changed in the short time you’ve been there; can’t wait to watch it continue to evolve and grow!
Thanks Claudia! You're the best! 🤗
This was so fun to watch! Don’t apologize for a disjointed video, for anyone who has been following along on your journey it’s fun to see your vision coming to life. It’s looking so good!! 👏🏻
Thanks Ashley! 🤗
Oh,your creek bed looks great. I am sooo looking forward to watching you design and plant the surrounding area.The gazebo going in too. Your property is looking wonderful. You are doing a great job.Thankyou for a very interesting video.🦘🦘🦘
You need to build a small wooden bridge to go over the dry creekbed. It would be so cute and draw you to the bench.
YES!
YES I agree! A bridge would be ADORABLE! 🌈💚🥰 Liz
Save that soil!!!! You will need it for something else I’m sure…like making your berms!. Seems like a waste to just dispose of it. Love the dry creek bed and so excited for you getting the gazebo! Must have been a good year 😂😂🤑
Agree!! SAVE THE SOIL.
I know I thought the same thing !
Use to get some higher berms around the creek bed.
Agree I’m always looking for soil and I’ve 30 acres …😂😅just pile it up …bet you use it as the ground will settle xx
@ The same…12 acres. Feel like I can’t make compost fast enough!
I think you will find that the mulch will be better than gravel, near your planting beds. It will stay cooler and be easier to walk on. Looking Great!
Wow, having the dry creek bed in place is a major accomplishment! Bravo, Jason and Janey, you guys are on fire!! I barely can wait to see the gazebo!! So excited for you two who have planned and worked so hard and deserve the very best of the best!! 👏👏
Thanks so much Linda! That is so sweet!
Wow Janey! The centre island has literally come to life! Your vision is being born.
Thanks Barbara!
Put the "big rock" in the middle of the other rocks and one of the big rocks in the middle of the main part of the creek bed and it will really look natural. You and the guys have accomplished quite a bit!
Oh Janey how EXCITING!!! I know you’ve been waiting for this day for so long . Your garden is really coming together so fast and beautifully. The vision is coming to life now. 💙💚💛🧡💜 Liz
Check you out running that machine - you go girl! Excited for your progress. I agree with everyone's recommendation for a bridge instead of stepping stones - that would be so cute and totally go with your garden's vibe! I love the wood chips. Happy Gardening my friend!!
I cannot believe how much progress you are making on this property. Great job! I was thinking it might be nice to see the Michael Glasman plan again.
Thats a great idea!
Loooooove this!!!!! Nice work by all!!
Love the progress! I know you mentioned you’re going to be fiddling with placement more…I think a few larger rocks need to be not just along the sides, but interspersed more centrally in the “stream” as well. It reads more naturally creek like, but maybe that’s just my weird view lol. The plantings alongside are going to frame it beautifully and add so much. It’s looking so much better with the added hard scapes, texture and heights in this central first impression area 😊👍🏼 Can’t wait to see the gazebo you’ve chosen.
“The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; The LORD lift up His face on you and give you peace.”
( Numbers 6:24-26)
Your dry creek bed is lovely. What a transformation of your property.
How exciting! I love it! Another idea for the extra rock would be to taper it down after it crosses the driveway and make it look like it continues past your fence into to neighbor,s yard. I’m guessing you already considered that though. Michael thinks of everything!
Ooh that would have been fun!
OMG, Janey! I LOVE it!! The center island is going to be an absolute showstopper. When you said there would be a couple of stepping stones crossing the creek bed, an image of a little bridge immediately came to mind. Looks like others thought of that too. Is that something that you might be interested in?❤
I cannot believe how much progress you are making on this property. Great job!
❤
The dry creek looks absolutely beautiful, the little wood bridge sounds awesome. Love the wood chips around the veggie beds. Can't wait to see the center island unfold this spring and summer. It's going to be so romantic and magical beautiful. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Judy!!
I agree, a wooden bridge would tie in with the gazebo & keep a more romantic feel into the whole area better. You’ve got plenty of rocks at this point. Since you won’t really have water ( unless it rains), the need for stepping stones is minimal. Love the creek bed & can’t wait to see the gazebo.❤
I love when goldens want to walk themselves on their leash 😍 mine does the same, lol!!
If you guys ever take trips to the beach, collecting some choice pieces of driftwood would look pretty spectacular in the dry creek bed. Of course, the pieces would have to be heavy enough for Monty not to be able to pick up. Then, maybe, you could do those tiny planting into the driftwood, like small grasses that are seen on coastlines.
How about a cute arched bridge to go over the dry creek bed.
Select one to coordinate with the gazebo style. It will be so pretty❤
So fun to watch the progress being made and your vision for the center garden being created. It’s looking really great!
Thanks Karin!
Looks great....just having the propane tank gone changes everything!
I Know! So happy it’s gone. We all are lol
So much excitement on your property right now!! I really like the wood chips around the Vego beds. It softens the look of the whole area. Great idea!
I love it so much!! And seeing this space with all your trees is so exciting!! I can’t wait to see them mature and fill out the space. It’s going to be absolutely stunning in a few years 😍
I know I can't wait to see the trees grow! 💗
You should put a wooden bridge over the rock bed. That would look really cute
I agree on some sort of small bridge instead of stepping stones (although I’m sure that would look so nice as well). Visually it would add height layers and depth in front of the gazebo as you come in and soften the rocks and add to the romantic vibe! Just a thought! Love all the progress! So fun!
Great video was over way too fast, that center island gonna be beautiful, can’t wait to see as you take us along ❤😊
I was just going to suggest a wooden bridge instead of stepping stones, and can see from all the comments everyone is thinking the same 😊 it’s going to look gorgeous Janey ❤
Oh it looks amazing! Cannot wait to see your continued process. Also, HUGE kudos to adding the mulch around your raised beds. It really grounds them and ‘cools’ the space. 😊
Omg! What a significant difference. It’s amazing. I could not imagine this, at all😄 I’m so happy for you guys. It looks amazing.. 😊I’m excited to see it all come together.
So fun watching you create a beautiful garden. Even more fun watching your excitement and energy as it comes together. :-)
It is so much fun watching these areas come to life! I know you are ecstatic to get such a high-impact area well underway
The wood chips will keep the raised bed area cooler too!
Nice work!
Oh my gosh Janey, I can now see your vision clearly! Your center island is going to be the ah ha moment of your garden surrounded by all of the other amazing beauty. Just a thought on the extra rocks on long boarder, what if you took the rocks right to the fence. Plant a group of grasses just in front of the fence, your large boulders just in front of the grasses so the back the large boulder and then the river rocks disappear into the grasses and boulder. It may then appear that the creek bed extends beyond your fence and may add some depth and direction change to the long narrow bed. Can’t wait for the next video. 🇨🇦😀
So exciting and everything looks great! For the Vego beds, maybe put the $2 12x12 pavers from Home Depot and make a little path through the wood chips? Cheap and cute😊. I really love the way the area looks with wood chips.
Hey Janey, you should be able to trim that Silver Falls Dichondra hanging from the zug zag planter anytime. They come back beautifully. 🤍🤍🤍
Maybe keep the soil, you might need it to add higher or more berms. Also, could use it for when you plant or even spread it on street side of fence where you will be planting in the future.
Agreed. I hate the idea of getting rid of all that dirt. I keep thinking it will be needed later.
You should have put a liner under the rocks & had a pump recirculating the water & have an actual functioning river! 💦😍 super easy to do! I’ve done it in my garden & it’s a great wildlife attraction for birds etc, coming to drink! ☺️
This is gonna be the major change in 2025 (with the gazebo) ! I love the idea of the bench ! I wonder if something like a tiny bridge to go over the dry creek bed to the bench wouldn't look cute ? Maybe another year's project :) I didn't realise the gazebo would come so soon, happy for you !
I agree with Kimberly a little bridge going over the dry creek bed would be soooooooo awesome. Looking foward to thw gazebo and the planting!!!!
I think the wood chips looks great around the Vego beds.
Thank you for showing us in somewhat real time rather than making us wait. It was a fun video!
Wow, you’ve accomplished a lot in that space. I can’t wait to see the gazebo come together. I know it will look amazing.
Please share your step by step process for making the dry creek bed. Meaning how deep you dug, what you put in the bed before the rocks and the name of the rocks you used. You can share on your next question and answer segment if that’s easier. Thanks. Love and watch your channel regularly.
Awesome! Love the creek bed... it'll look so cool with gazebo.
Absolutely love these kind of videos, so thank you for sharing with us. If it is in your budget, cute little bridge over to the bench would be so romantic.
Dry creek bed looks amazing. Nice job!
This is already looking so beautiful! So excited for your (and my!) gardening season! 💚 Janey, during your recent Q&A with Jason, I realized just how much you resemble Kate Hudson! You prolly hear that all the time! 🙃 She can act and sing…but can she garden???😉
Hahahahahaha! 💗
So exciting! This is the kind of projects that get me up in the morning with a spring in my step.
That’s great progress Janey, I can’t wait to see when it’s all done. Your doing a fabulous job and it’s good your using help.
This was both transformational and inspiring! LOVE IT!
Once you give those rocks a rinse it will look amazing!!
Love it!! Add a bridge instead of stepping stones over the creek bed☺️
🤣🤣Monte, you’re so cute!
I think you should add a little bridge instead of stepping Stones over the dry Creek.😊
The dry creek bed looks awesome, Janey! Adding a water feature to the dry creek bed on the side of the drive would be a nice addition to the entrance of the property.
Looks like a beautiful day to work in the garden. this is so exciting. wonderful transformation of the view of your house. Genie : )
Hi Janey 🌺. Wonderful work , all look amazing the dry creek looks beautiful and the casebo is going to be amazing . Have a great day .🌺🌻🌺🌻
The mulch looks great with the Vego beds!
Looking good! How about a little bridge to cross the creek bed?
I like the mulch around the veto beds.
💕🫶😉I agree it would be nice to have a small bridge over the dry creek bed instead of stepping stones. 🥰👩🌾
Janey your vision for the front yard is coming together beautifully!! I couldn’t see it before but now I am and I can’t wait for the finale! All your patience, hard work and triumphs are coming together👍 Let spring arrive!
Instead of putting the dirt in a dumpster, could you use it in the backyard?
Or around the Chicken Coop area where she wants to plant more stuff…
Awesome Janey! So exciting
Oh! Janey!! And Jason!
I like stepping stones instead of a bridge!
Loving the Dry creek bed, and so excited to see your new Gazebo, cannot believe the progress you guys have made in just a year amazing 😊❤️💐
❤
Looks amazing Janie!😊
Super excited for you looking good🎉
So exciting to see your vision come to life.
❤
LOOKS AMAZING!!!
Wow 👏 what an impact congratulations looks so good!
Hi Janey I'm so excited for your progress and cant wait to see the gazebo. Its going to be so pretty. Good luck, keep up the good work! PS love my orange blossom candle.
It's going to be amazing! Good job!❤
Dry creek bed yes mam. Zi adore miss Janey! Hugs love!❤😊❤
Oh my gosh! That added so much! Love it! How exciting for you guys! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Looking good Janey!!
Just a thought..... gravel on concrete can roll and/or slide under your feet and cause a slip and fall issue.
Wow it’s looking awesome!😎👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Janey, the dry creek bed is looking awesome! I can’t wait to see it all finished!
Boy, has your garden changed in a year!! Love it!!💜
Hi Janey. I wake up and view your videos during breakfast 😊. Love how the dry creek bed looking. I know it can be tricky getting it to look natural. I also follow Laura Eubanks (desingforserenity) and she just posted her most recent dry creek bed redesign in Fullerton, CA.
GORGEOUS! ❤
Oh....so exciting. The gardens are looking fabulous ❤❤❤
The dry creek needs to be lower. Or the rest to be higher (make higher berms with the extra soil). But the vision is getting closer
Wow, great progress! It us tough when you have to wait for a long time for the savings to grow to meet the cost of projects. Glad your dream is coming true this year. Can't wait to see the gazebo and then a summer's worth of planting up the whole front area. Lots of plant decisions to make. Are you going to add any trees?
WOW! Everything is looking wonderful. Your gardens look amazing in such a short time.
Maybe stepping stones placed between the raised gardens in the back where you placed the woodchips would look nice, plus they will keep your shoes/boots clean when wet and when dry from tracking the woodchips off from the area.
HAPPY GARDENING!
Not sure what is but I can't see it as a river bed, it just looks like pebble pathway. Hopefully when it's finished it will make more sense.
Very nice. I agree with other comments, a bridge would be nice. Would add structure to that section if the garden. It's going to be gorgeous when finished.
Question: Could you please walks us through the "why" behind the creek bed, and the vision. I imagine a few rock plants spilling over,
Aww... So been there at the end of a long day when you try to say something simple like "sitting area" and it just won't come. 😂❤🎉
