outdoor

this weekend i cleared out the weeds from our back patio area. now, it's all bricked over, but the little cracks between the bricks are the perfect place for tiny little weeds to pop up and turn into big, ugly weeds all over the ground. so i pulled all the weeds i could find yesterday. now i'm on to thinking about how to redo our back a little. the furniture is old and so disgusting. i'm really not kidding. it's falling apart and mismatched and nasty. i want plants and furniture and a little color back there. here are some backyards that are totally rocking my world.

first up, flowers. i will probably kill some flowers again, but that will not stop me from attempting to garden!!!! how cute is this flower-tub?!?!?!?

or this little teacup flowerpot????
next, herbs and veggies. i am definitely about to attempt to grow cucumbers, tomatoes, rosemary and basil. and maybe jalapenos. i have seen this in a variety of ways, but i LOVE the idea of a dresser drawer planter.

milk crates look adorable too!! although, i don't know how the dirt stays in the milk crates....
and last but not least, gutter planters. i mean, how awesome are these???? maybe i can make lp make these for me....

last but not least, some decor. love the green wicker chair in this first one! anyone know where i can find one?

dream outdoor relaxation space

color!! chairs!!! colored chairs!!!
