Well our DIY back garden is almost done. The turf will be arriving in the following week. But I don’t think I will be posting pictures after seeing all these professional looking, gorgeous gardens!
I have garden envy 😫

I am sure it will be lovely and as long as you like it that’s all that matters - it’s amazing what difference just new turf will make.

We have exact same lights from Costco (think we bought 2 boxes - they connect). Great lights.

Beautiful gardens!

We ordered a hot tub, then thought about how we were going to get it in the garden, so we demolished a huge shed.
