- Garden makerover♪♪ I started this DIY project 1 year ago, and finally finished filming! My side yard used to be embarrassingly messy. I transformed it to Japanese Zen style garden with a traditionally set up Japanese rice fish (Medaka) mini pond and shishi odoshi (bamboo water fountain). Hope you enjoy this DIY :)

The hard work you did really shows because you made that area absolutely beautiful
Thank you so much! I will maintain it 💪
Love the garden. I lived in Japan for almost 4 years and can’t wait for spring so I can put my Japanese garden in. Thank you for sharing your beautiful zen garden.
You lived in Japan! It’s always lovely to see people who find beauty in our culture. Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for showing your setbacks, it helps me understand not everyone can have this perfect setting without some issues and living through the process. Thank you so much.
Thank you for your beautiful comment. This side garden area had been so messy for a long time. But finally the problem is solved, and I am glad that I pushed through the project (mainly digging the dirt though… 😅).
That was an incredible build! You should be very peaceful visiting your garden for years to come.
Thank you so much 😊 Yes, it’s my peaceful place. It was a lot of work but finally it paid off 👍💕
So lovely, I’m building now a ‘dry creek’ and ‘pond’ in the Japanese style, but here in Northern Baja California on the edge of the Pacific. It is never quiet as the ocean is always speaking but the sky and big water are intrinsically open, and in this way restful. It was old me, like young you with pick ax and spade, finding ,placing ,rolling big rocks, and raking gravel. My beloved brother sent me you wonderful video, very inspirational. Thank you
What a beautiful message! I am touched. Thank you so much! I love listening to the ocean. Where you live sounds like a beautiful place. Building a garden is a massive job. But the rewards from the are always worthwhile 😊 it took almost one year to complete my garden. I was working on and off. No need to rush. Wishing you a wonderful day and thank you again for your warm comment 💕
9o99 7 777,
Where are you located?
You’re strong, my friend! Tsuyoi desu ne!
What an amazing transformation. I love how you adapted your original plan to overcome the challenges of the space. It came out amazing.
Wow thank you so much! Every time I planned how I handle the project and think it should work, often need to be adjusted. But I enjoy looking for the solutions. 😊

What a fantastic garden makeover! It's so hard doing all that digging and stone moving - you did a really great job. Your new garden looks really beautiful and peaceful - your creative ideas are amazing. I am sure this garden will bring you lots of joy and relaxation. 🙏
Thank you so much. I feel good to see this area now, yes it’s my peaceful garden 😊
I enjoyed watching you build your Zen garden from start to finish. It brought peace to me while watching it. I'm impressed with your workmanship and the narration, and tone of voice your voice brought this video to the next level. Thank you so much for sharing your Zen garden building experience with us.
Thank you so much! It took a very long time to build this garden and the video. I really appreciate that you took time to see the process of my work :)
The great thing with Japanese Gardens is there many diferent styles which you can create ,The hard part is the building it up with digging and how to place rocks, the right plants such as Grasses,Bamboo, Maples,Sakura trees and a path. (something i found when i created my own Japanese garden) Once complete though the beauty enhances over the years . Great work you both did and i hope it gives you joy and relaxation for many years to come .
You created Japanese garden too! Yes, I found that it was not easy to design the layout of objects like rocks and plants. But I enjoyed the process and now I enjoy seeing my garden. Thank you so much for your beautiful comment!
Your garden came out just gorgeous! Enjoy it for many years to come.
I do like the cleanesss and the way you aligned your plants and deco as well! In my own taste....,
'The most liked feature added to your place the pond, and bamboo water's fountain."
Thank you so much! This area is between the house and shed. I didn't want big trees or high maintenance garden, so I thought Zen garden would be perfect. Yes I love my pond (I have a new bigger pond now!) and bamboo water fountain. They made this place alive!
BEAUTIFUL. I GREW UP WITH A JAPANESE FARMER NEXT DOOR. HE ALWAYS HAD LOVELY BONSAI GARDEN AND I GOT TO SEE THE OLD JAPANESE CULTURE & TRADITIONS 😊IT HAS INFLUENCED MY GARDENING STYLE.
Wow that’s so nice of you. It’s always interesting to see different culture, and enjoy the new things. Thank you so much for your lovely comment!
What a beautiful garden! One of my favorite places to visit is a Japanese botanical garden south of where I live. The aesthetic is so peaceful and beautiful. You did an incredible job on this area.
Thank you so much. It took a long time, but finally I can relax...
This is so lovely and inspiring. thank you so much to reveal to us the delicacy of japanese culture.
I am very happy to see that people in different countries find our culture beautiful. Thank you so much!
You made what was a neglected place into your place to be peaceful in your Japanese garden..seeing what you achieved 6mths later was to see the fullness of the makeover…you did an amazing transformation..thank you for sharing..❤
So nice of you! Thank you for your lovely comment. It made my day💕💕💕
I am also a gardener 🌱knowing what goes into transforming a space that was something to dump things that have no place else to go..it can be quite magical when what is in your imagination can be manifested..
Making gardens is a passion that makes me welcome into a community..🌱💕🌿
Thank you for your reply 😊 Yes, I felt so good to see this area‘s finally finished. Making gardens is very hard but it is amazing. It's like creating the own paradise!
Such a beautiful peaceful garden. Seeing all the different green plants is just as inspiring as a colorful flower garden.
Thank you so much. I’m so glad you like my garden 😊
Great amount of work that went into this design. The plants are very well placed, and the rock and stone give great structure to the design. Great husband and wife team working together. This is an excellent landscape.
Thank you so much. It was a massive job but I’m glad it’s finally done.
How lovely this came out. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you create this masterpiece.
Glad you enjoyed my garden makeover. Thank you so much for watching 🙏💕
You are truly an inspiration. Your zen garden looks wonderful.
Awww 🥰 thank you so much!
Wow, all the sweat and heart put into this zen garden really pay off. So inspiring and beautiful to look at. 😊
Thank you so much, glad you liked my zen garden 🥰
holly molly what a transformation!! love the bamboo water feature. everything is so Zen...
It was hard to make the bamboo fountain right because of the spot I chose where it had to sit in the awkward angle. But I'm glad we made it. It's so relaxing 😊
So very beautiful. I love the history of extremely hard work and thoughtfulness leading to such a simple and peaceful outcome.
I grew up in Japan so I’ve never taken a notice of our characteristics from the history, but what you mentioned is right. Thank you so much 😊
i loved watching u transform this garden! it was so peaceful and creative
Thank you!!😊 I’m so glad you liked this garden!
Brilliant......thx for sharing this video......will help me with my backyard renovations
Glad you liked my garden transformation. Have fun with your garden project 🪴
I love the Japanese culture & think more of it needs to be practiced. Also now you have me looking up ways to make my own Japanese garden. This is so beautiful.
Thank you so much! I would be excited to see your Japanese garden❣️
Wow! What a wonderful job you did. It looks so beautiful and relaxing. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed my garden project. Thank you for watching 😊💕
What a wonderful journey! I can feel the peace and tranquility that you’ve created! Enjoy ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! Now I just enjoy my garden finally 😊
What a great job! The result is stunishing. I Love it❤
Thank you so much! 🙏
I love your RUclips channel! I love your garden. I was just scrolling on RUclips and if found this video. So early. Your such an inspiration! ❤️
Thank you so so much💕💕 (I love your icon 🐸)
It's so lovely!
You did a wonderful job.
A delightful result.
Thank you! My embarrassing space finally became a favourite space 😊
Wow. So peaceful. You did a wonderful job. Your hard work paid off. ❤
Thank you 🙏 It was a big project for me but glad it’s finished 😊
It looks wonderful...very peaceful.
Thank you so much 🙏💕
What amazing make over! Loved It!
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
I think you did a GREAT job, it looks so much better than before! I also like your kimono/yukata. It never occurred to me to use bamboo skewers to keep the kitties out--I'll have to remember that! Thanks for sharing your wonderful project.
Thank you so much! I like wearing yukata, I think they make us look elegant. The bamboo skewers are my sister in law’s idea. It seems to be working 😉
Absolutely amazing ❤
thank you so much for your video. You are a very hard worker! Your garden turned out very beautiful. I am in the middle of putting in a Japanese garden, part of it will be Zen. You have the sweetest voice too! Thanks again!
So glad that you enjoyed my garden project. Your Japanese garden will be your new peaceful place, and you will love it!
It’s beautiful and peaceful 💕
Thank you 😊 🙏💕
Hermoso tu jardín Zenón!!!! Te felicito!!!realmente transmite oaz👏👏👏❤️
¡Gracias! Me alegro de que mi jardín finalmente esté hecho.
Nice video , I enjoyed it very much . I laughed when you turned on the hose and your cat took off. Very funny ! You worked hard to make such a great space. You should not feel like an outsider , you live there , now it is your country. If you are not accepted then that is on them and is their problem . You are a lovely young lady and may all your days be blessed .
Awww thank you so much for your kind words!! I am happy living here. I see lots of nice people. The cat took off is the timid one 😁
You have a calming voice it's beautiful. Your garden is fantastic and lovely .
Thank you so much 😊🙏💕
Fantastic job! I love a manicured garden in the rain also!
Thank you 😊 yes the rain makes every colour looks vibrant.
I'm from Palau Micronesia 🇵🇼 and I'm in Japan watching this, I love everything in this video and all around me here 🇯🇵❤️✌️
Nice to hear from you and you are enjoying Japan 🇯🇵 Hope it’s not too hot for you 😊
@@livelovelaughdiy it's ok, Palau is more humid since we're close to the equator
Well done what a wonderful job you have achieved a really beautiful serene area. All your hard work paid off ❤
Awww thank you so much! I struggled with this project but I'm happy with this garden.
Beautiful.. You worked so hard to clear the area! Wonderful results. Congratulations on your beautiful garden.
Thank you so much 😊 it’s nice to sit and watch the garden now.
Your thoughtful ideas and hardwork paid off
This project took a long time, but yes it was worthwhile. Thank you 😊
Wow! Your hard work, creativity, and inventive solutions really made a beautiful and peaceful garden. It looks very inviting! Your cats seem to enjoy it too!
Thank you 😊!! Yes my cats enjoy playing in this garden especially looking at my fish 😅
This is beautiful, and serene! Congratulations on an excellent presentation, and much joy to you!!!
Thank you for including your precious cats in your video! 😻😻😻
Thank you so much! I think my cats (especially the young ginger cat) want to be RUclipsrs 😂
@@livelovelaughdiy Yes, they are delightful!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful culture and for inspiring myself and others to learn from both you and it.
It’s so nice to hear that you appreciate Japanese culture. Thank you for watching this video!
You are this country. What makes America great is the combinations of cultures.
You have created the best work of art, and I bet your neighbors find excuses to walk by your home. You have inspired me. Many Blessings
So niceof you! Garden makeover is painstaking job, but it is enjoyable and rewarding 😊
She's not in the USA though
You can be so proud of your hard word and creativity. What a peaceful mini world you created. I’m not Japanese but I’m in the process of building a Japanese garden on one side of my house as well. It’s liberating and can’t wait to get where you are. Ordered some moss and bamboo. Just planted three maples and a cherry. Not sure our ground is good for a koi pond. 😢. Thank!!!
Wow your Japanese garden sounds amazing! It sounds very authentic. I am excited to hear about your garden!
Looks absolutely beautiful !!!😍😍 All your hard work well paid off
Just found your channel today and your videos are very calming and very informative. I’m in Victoria and one day I’m going to make a zen garden like yours once we have our own property
Blessings!!!
Thank you for your lovely comment from Victoria! Making this garden was hard, but I am happy to look at it now. Wishing you a beautiful zen garden in the near future 💕💕💕
What a great garden! Peaceful and beautiful. Love it.
Thank you so much 😊 😊😊
Just amazing…… we are looking into a shishi odoshi. So calming and beautiful. What an inspiration this video is. Thank you for sharing. ❤️⛲️🪴❤️
Thank you for finding and watching this video. Shishi odoshi fountain is relaxing. You will love it!
Hermoso jardín pienso que da mucha paz el sonido del agua y la decoracion.felicidades quedo' hermoso, un lugar para disfrutar
¡Muchas gracias! Me encanta el sonido de mi fuente de agua de bambú. Estoy muy feliz de ver mi nuevo jardín. ¡Gracias por ver este video!
This is incredibly beautiful!
Thank you so much!! 😍
Oh my goodness the idea of using bamboo sticks so cats won't use it as a toilet. I'm definitely using this idea in my garden
My sister in law taught me the bamboo sticks idea, and it works for my cats 👍
You worked so hard but the results are certainly worth it. I love your small garden area, beautiful.
Thank you so much! I am planning to do up the small garden area in the near future too 😊
Become a really lovely place. Those 2 statues nicely sinking in that grass, look very natural.
Thank you 😊 Those child statues looked cool covered with turtle vine, yes. After I trimmed the vine, it grew back again so fast, and the statues are sinking now 😁
You did a beautiful job ! I love your bamboo fountain, I've always wanted one of those. I live in New Jersey, USA, so the little fish couldn't handle our winters. You are an inspiration. 😃👍🏻
Thank you for your beautiful greeting from New Jersey. The bamboo fountain definitely upgraded the garden. Japanese rice fish can survive under the ice, but I guess whole water in a small pond would freeze in winter in New Jersey right? 😅
This was a lot of hard work and worth all your efforts 😊
@@livelovelaughdiy yes, it would freeze
Thank you …🙏
@@livelovelaughdiy Oh yes.
How incredible you took a journey with a single step to reveal a new destination to find calm
As a fellow gardener I honor your hard work 🙏
Wow thank you so much! It was my biggest project and I’m so glad it’s finally done. Love 💕
Outstanding! Thank you for sharing. Great job.
I’m so glad you enjoyed my garden project 😊
Beautiful lots of texture and calming colors and sounds good job . Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, glad you liked it 😊
A taller fence could be used with cutouts for window and such. A darker pebble, such as gray would show off more shadows and look more naturalistic. Glad the excessive ornaments were removed; lantern was a neat find. You could try chemically cleaning your statues/lantern and then try cultivating moss to grow on it. Having a soft mister would be an inexpensive way to add fog-like atmosphere while humidity that moss would need.
Thank you so much for your advice! The taller fence with cutouts sounds good, and I love your idea of installing a mister. That will be beautiful 😍
Wow you worked so hard. You have the sweetest voice I love watching your garden transform into something so beautiful. I have maiden hair ferns but I have to grow them indoors because the Island I live on gets too cold in winter for them to thrive. Can you grow Japanese maples where you live? A small tree would look really nice near the end of the pathway. :) I love the old and stained look it gives it a beautiful patina and vintage look to the garden. But I hope you plant a little tree at the end for harmony. ❤ I actually really like the look of the statues being taken over by nature it reminds of a temple in the jungle. Do you have a bench or chair to sit and relax in your garden. 🦋🦋
Actually I was thinking about getting a Japanese maple tree! I love them! My sister in law also suggested it for this garden. If I find it, love to have it 💕The bench idea sounds good too. Thanks for your beautiful suggestions, much appreciated 😘
@@livelovelaughdiy I will pray you find one
Congratulations. I love your garden. You did a great job. Thanks for sharing!
So nice of you! Thank you 😊 🙏
It was such a pleasure to see your beautiful garden come to life, you certainly created a calm and peaceful place. I especially liked the way it all looks in the rain and as a gardener all my life, you have created something very special and I hope you are proud of yourself :) I look forward to your future videos
Thank you so much!! I like this Japanese zen garden when it's wet with rain too. It looks calmer...
Beautiful and very well done job !! It looks so peaceful. You should be very proud of yourself for creating such a wonderful garden. After seeing what you've created I'm thinking of where I could incorporate a Zen garden too. Again , wonderful wonderful job. 👌👍
Thank you so much!! Your comment made my day. It was not an easy project but I am glad I pushed through.
@@livelovelaughdiy You're very welcome ! You did a marvelous job of your garden. It was a real pleasure to watch and so very relaxing although I felt so bad for you when you broke your toe :( I know how painful that is 'cause i've broken mine to along with a few other bones over the years.
For the cut ends on your roses, try lipstick to seal the cuts. Lipstick is a natural wax for women's lips. Works great on sealing the cuts. Cold winter snowy/rainy months the lipstick does not wear off. Plus you can pick the color to match the branch or the flower of the rose. My sister and niece buy them for me, and they work great on my cuts on my bonsai trees and all my roses and apple and cherry tree.
Wow! Thanks for sharing your amazing tips! I’ve never tried lipstick on the cut ends. It’s great to be able to choose the right colour too!
Beautiful garden. I love to see you transform from empty land into a beautiful japanese garden.
I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my garden makeover. Thank you!
What a lovely and relaxing place you have created. What an inspiration.
Thanks so much 😊
I am really happy for Your Husband. He. Is a highly blessed Man. The Most High really loves Him.
Such a lovely comment. Thank you so much 😊
Boa tarde. Sou paisagista, já executei diversos projetos para clientes. Neste momento,estou desenvolvendo o quê poderemos chamar o especial,pois será o primeiro,na minha própria casa,dentro de uma mata,as margens de uma cachoeira e tambem,próximo ao orquidário quê estarei integrando junto com um espaço para meditação. Sendo assim,vejo tudo relacionado a jardins orientais. É necessário a troca de informações e atualizações de alguns itens. Parabéns pelo resultado final do projeto de vocês. Tornou um espaço mau utilizado,em um maravilhoso jardim oriental! Obrigado pela oportunidade
