FOCAL POINTS MUST BE LEVEL

Focal points in the landscape must be level. Most will shift in a year's time. I bought a pen sized level and straighten brick edging, benches, plinths, urns, & statues each year.

At Susanne Hudson's, above, last week. LOL, her landscape is GORGEOUS, and real. Soon her plinth & urn will be level again.

Are your focal points level?

    To a certain extent focal point has to be level, unless artistic requirement says otherwise. I do agree with you that level shifts over time..

    Hi Tara,

    No, as a matter of fact my birdbath is listing to the right. Must take the time to straighten that out! Thanks for the reminder.
