About This Remodel

Jan 2013, we have added the POOL (builder Blue Haven

Coming from Tokyo, we have moved in to Buda, Texas May2009.Whereas Tokyo house is so tiny & compact, Texas house is soo huge, having an area of 1.75acre land property, 3600sqft house. After the interior stuffs were settled in, my biggest challenge was the outdoor. The screening n designing of the 545sqft porch became the first 2009project, the fence 2010, the outdoor patio n flowerbeds 2011, the pergola/walkway/other stoneworks March2012. The flagstone patio got the lions share(40% of the expenses because it's 21 "deep. (Our backyard is going downslope, so there are elevations: from the house, stairs,, patio and going down to the stonework campfire area

Oh, I got a lot of herbs and veggies. It's not just shown here, but details in FB. I enjoyed the fruits of my labor on all these edible plants until end of Nov2012, &,some frozen lemongrass & basil. Our pool is under construction now, and by May, i will be able to post a new look after doing the curb appeals and of course the details....

Congratulations on the completion of your backyard space. It's absolutely beautiful, serene & inviting! With all the land I wonder why so little veggie growing?? Best of luck on the pool project.

Thanks anniem110. If you are asking about the bamboo blinds roll up, I got it from Homedepot. But as of this writing I painted it with moss green because it got mildew after a heavy rain. Now I don't have to bring it in when the rain comes.
