    Must. Stop. Shopping.

    I keep buying things for my garden project! I’ve added a revamp of the front and side garden, added in a few decor items, it’s all starting to add up to a bit more than planned. If it works out like I hope it will it should be really nice though.

        They certainly can be. In comparison to what I could have spent I’m not doing too badly, and I should recoup most of the cost in fruit & veg over a couple of years. But I did go down a bit of a rabbithole of garden decor items on Temu.

          I decorate my garden/outdoor areas as if they are a room.

            I tried doing that, starting with a lounge setting, but it did not really work out for me so the lounge is out and I’m going back to garden. Most of the decorations are going in the side “garden” which is more like a hallway than a room. Hopefully it will help it feel more like a place in its own right and not just a service corridor. Plus the kitchen window looks out there so a few things to look out to will be appreciated.
