Attraction to Velvet & Linen was immediate. Beautiful interiors matched to beautiful landscapes. Brooke creates & lives a Vanishing Threshold life. She's a master of color, scale, form, function & more.
Before, above, she started her garden renovation.
Small input, huge impact at the front door. Themes: evergreens, white, terra cotta. If the spiral had been placed closer to the front door, as most people do, the entire area would feel cramped.
Oh lucky dirt, below, someone knows how to make you productive.
Aren't these our best days, below? Coming home loaded with plants or antiques or art or books or thrift store junk?
Already in awe of Brooke's talent, then I see, below, she's A GRAVEL GIRL!!!!!!!
Brooke's pants, side track me a bit, shoes too, above. Tiny gardens are difficult, imperfections are magnified. Barely finished, Brooke's garden is a delight.
Wish I could see the YouTube of this garden installation. Hmm, edited to 3 minutes? 
Garden magic, above. Notice the placement of pots. Bringing them close reduces the scale of the garage door. Opposite of what Brooke needed at the front door..
Brooke, Thank you for sharing all you do.

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

Pics from Velvet & Linen. When you have time, there are many more pics about this project here.
Pebbles rock and so does Brooke's house.
ReplyDeleteI think the bouganvilla is doing its part with the garage door, too. I wish my garage looked that good.
ReplyDeleteI am so honored to have my garden on your beautiful blog Tara!
ReplyDeleteI can't thank you enough for your kind words and your support of my work.
