New construction.
More than sticks & dirt, windows- doors- wood, were rescued in anticipation of construction.
Another style of wattle & daub, below, in the same garden as, above.
Every element of each picture is free.
The bottom of my chinoiserie chicken coop is 'open'. Summer of 2015 I plan to wattle & daub Jamaica style.

NOTE to my gardening friends... look for changes to come.
Knew before computers/cell phones, sitting in Atlanta traffic on way to a client, 'I must reach a larger audience with the same amount of effort.' Soon after that epiphany I signed my CBS-TV, and, books contracts on the same day.
.
Then I read an article in the NYTimes about something called 'blogging'. Saved the article for a year before reading it. Studied all the blogs they mentioned, hired a computer expert they quoted, and attended a blogging seminar.
.
Blogging 2.0 has arrived, my knowledge is 1.0. A believer in copying the best historic gardens across the globe it flows into every arena of life. Watching Maria Killam grow her career/blog/life over the past 3 years made its impact. Signed up for a year's course with her blogging expert, Jon Morrow.
.
Changes will be slow, plodding is my adored method. Pulling triggers here/there is spice in the mix.

What do YOU want?
.
Nothing is too small, too big, or too ego crushing to mention.
.
Passion lies in sharing what has filled me to the depths of grace, joy & atonement, the best landscapes created over the last 2,000+ years.
Just so you know...
I welcome your input.
What a beautiful place, and great that it’s all reclaimed/free.
