Your Frontdoor

Creamy color taken from bricks. Window box & hare, a still life. Shutters rich, not builder grade. Thought went into this Frontdoor welcome. My Dear Lady is pulling thru to health after months. Her garden oblivious to her inattention. Instead, her garden enriching the healing process.

Does your landscape work for you or do you work for it?

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

Pics taken this week, same garden as previous post. Your interiors may be fabulous but their first impression is at your Frontdoor.

    Yet another "Tara truth", dare I say?

    Outdoor living spaces that work for a person help heal, or at least help one feel better.

    Hi Tara,
    I'm a new "follower" of yours an have been a "reader" for a while. I love your blog. I thought you might be interested in a unique chicken coop I have in my back yard. I'm copying the link to the post here. Hope you like it...

    Tara, People sometimes don't realize that front doors and
    the drive way entrance are
    important. Curb appeal right?
    Very inviting,

    Interesting question...my answer is "both". I've just spent the last two days working in my yard/garden. The heat has taken a toll. I had to clear out and cut back many things that normally hang in there til November. But I don't mind, because the payoff is beauty, peace, wisdom, surprise, and pure joy, to name a few. A small investment for such a large return.
