Enjoy Your Backyard
If you are one of the lucky people in life that is blessed with having a backyard outside your home, then enjoy it. Use your back yard, make it into a favorite place for you, your family and your friends to spend time. After all, not everyone has the privilege of having a great backyard to spend time in.
If you have ever lived in an apartment or an inner city than you know how great it is to have even a little bit of property to call your own. You know how fun it can be to have space to play or relax or garden. You know that a backyard can be one of the greatest places on earth.
I have grown to love my backyard so much because it holds so much potential for me and my family. It is a small plot of the earth just to be used by me and the ones I love. Because I know that not many people in the world have a space to call their own, I have really learned to make the most of the backyard I have.
For the first few years our family had a backyard we did little with it other than mow the grass. That all changed, however, after a family meeting we held one Saturday afternoon. I guess it was my husband's idea, I cannot really remember, but I just know that we decided as a family to put our backyard into good use. We brainstormed ideas about the different ways that we could transform our backyard into a place that we all enjoyed spending time in.
Our brainstorming session led to many changes in our backyard. My husband and I had always wanted to garden, so we set aside part of the backyard and began making preparations for having a vegetable garden. It was a thrill for us to actually see one of dreams come true right on our own property. We read up on gardening and asked for tips from our gardening friends. Within two seasons we had a small but successful vegetable garden that was one of the proudest spots in our backyard.
Our children requested a fire pit so that we could enjoy bonfires and making smores on cool summer nights. We did a little research and installed a great fire pit on one side of our backyard. It became a gathering place for many of our friends and family members throughout the spring, summer and even fall months. Many special conversations were had around that fire pit and it too became one of the best parts of our backyard.
Regardless of the state of your backyard now, take some time to brainstorm with your own family and make your backyard a great place for years to come.

Love this. A tree fell into our greenhouse so this is a good makeshift while we can't get out and have seedlings growing.

I purchased this as well as the 1 matching leather holder for a recent powder room remodel. Looks lovely! I used artificial succulents in them so theres no worry of watering plantsdamaging wallstoo much weight. Really helps complete an otherwise bare wall. Came exactly as described and was beyond easy to install!

The directions and supplied tools could be improved a lot but the bench itself is nice looking and not a bad setup

I ordered this lamp unsure of the quality. I shouldn't have worried, it arrived very quickly and I was delighted with the quality. Beveled glass and beautifully constructed metal work ensured that I have it hanging in our new porch.

Attractive sturdy construction with an effective self-watering design and optional hooks for attaching to my balcony railings. (Photo shows 2 of the four all planted with a pair of Geranium plants.)

Very quick delivery on these planters. I ordered 5 medium and 5 smaller planters and all but one arrived undamaged. Took a photo of the damage and another was sent immediately. Very pleased with the look of these items and price paid. Had to drill drainage holes in the bottom which was fine but they look good and I like the fact that they have inserts which means you don't need to fill two thirds of each planter which saves a lot on compost. Put some rocks/bricks in the bottom part so that it is not top heavy. Very pleased with the service and product

Does the job very well and looks the part! Cushion cover is vinyl - practical but fabric would be nicer. Good value for he money - the only real downside for me is that I have big feet and some the shoes have to lay sideways - but a pair of Timberland boots will still fit (just)!

I needed 8 but ordered four of these chairs in grey just to check the quality. I am very pleased with the overall look and quality. They are light but sturdy. I paired them with an expensive teak table to get in upscale French ambiance. It works.

Just received this planter and must say I'm very disappointed in the item, from the picture and description that it contained stone thought this was a ceramic pot but all it is is painted plastic and I do not think it is worth the purchase price, it has already cost me in delivery , I would like to return it but will cost me again

Beautiful piece of furniture. I got my friend to help me with the flat pack, but my bad memories were just that! It was wonderfully straightforward to put together and I could have done it by myself. Lifting it is a lil more difficult. Thoroughly recommend this bench.
