GARDEN GATE

FAVORITES ON THE FIRST GARDEN PARTY

with Alison at the Polohouse

are you like me and thinking we need a new gate?

well...this is the weekend!!!  

(yay!!!)

the fence is done and we are now waiting on cute carpenter man to design our gate

he is worth the wait!

this is how the gate looked when we bought 822 that leads into the backyard

so charming

(I was a BIG to my LITTLE Katy --Big Brothers Big Sisters-- when she was in Kindergarten-3

she took her senior pictures this year at our front door)

I would love to include some kind of iron work on our back gate to carry out the look

we talked about a speakeasy..but do you want to open your little bitty door to the alley?

and say

"hi you people in the alley...how's the trash dumpster look today?"

lovely examples all over pinterest nation!

but no such place to get iron done around here...all the welders are busy on 

the oil rigs

(yay!!!)

if I lived in a horse house like Alison!

would this not work???

or a fantasy zen garden like Loi..yes please

no

we've lived in a construction zone

for 3 years

where step by step

we've made some spectacular progress

although it seemed not many many weeks!

 finally....we are down to the gate!

I'm thinking something along these lines

we shall 

as they say

see 

I'll keep you posted!
