Gardening in and out
Jan 24, 2008 | 5:51 AM PST
Winter is the time to do some weeding and hardscaping inside the house. This should happen before I get all involved in plans for the outside and the catalogues and ideas are already starting to accumulate. oops! Outside is mich easier. I have the ground colour already rolled out. I have walls that are fairly fixed in place and colour decisions are minimal wth texture offering the most options. The ceiling's biggest consideration is the degree of light and dark! Inside is a whole other landscaping challenge. The options are a bit mind boggling. I am set on green for the enterance, stairway, and hallways. Oohh, which green? And then which particular flower petal colour will go off from the main branch. Growing conditions? Hmm, overhanging shade is a problem to the right, a boggy area at the other end. Hot sun in the main area! A peaceful area up and back! Maybe I should just pull those catalogues out anyway! vbsigh

My husband is an interior designer, he designs amazing treatments on ceilings-if you have any questions, I can get the answers! Also, our friend is a muralist, does lovely ceilings-just a thought to ponder.

Thanks, Andrea! my dear hubby is my assistant. No artistic help there and he found 3 coats of sponging for the walls way too much work but I'm hoping that particular memory has faded! But you have made me wonder what clouds overhead just might look like! lol Elle |
