You must be so happy with how everything has come together so quickly Yeah it's been good, packing frantically now! Re: Blueprint build - Baldivis 366Apr 08, 2016 9:39 pm Woohoo! We have bits of fence on some sides of our block, missing on others Re: Blueprint build - Baldivis 368Apr 12, 2016 12:29 am Got our front landscaping design back today, I'm loving the look of it!!

I wanted a pretty country garden that smelled beautiful. Most of the plants are shrubs, there is lavender which I love the smell of going under our bedroom window. Hubby going to build me a picket fence at some point too and we will attach a gate as shown. Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 370Apr 12, 2016 1:45 pm Yep! That's our house The land developers didn't sell the locks of land on my street, they built houses on them and are now trying to sell the houses. By the time we finish building my street will be complete, so that will look nice Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 371Apr 12, 2016 1:46 pm And your design looks awesome! Can't wait to do mine Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 372Apr 12, 2016 3:33 pm Awww I see!! I did wonder why they all looked so similar but I guess that makes sense now! Thanks! Yeah it will be good once it's all finished. Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 374Apr 12, 2016 3:58 pm Robina Love your choice of plants. They will look very pretty. Did it cost a lot to have your plan drawn up? It is included in our land package, the only extra were paying for is $500 for aluminium lawn edging. Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 377Apr 12, 2016 7:02 pm Lolly Love the lawn plan what is the aluminium edging ? Is that to stop weeds going into the beds Aluminum Edge looks really nice but probably not high enough to protect from weeds. Weeds are very hard to control. Weed mat, mulch would help. Any bare patch would attract nasty weed. Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 378Apr 12, 2016 7:04 pm Lolly Love the lawn plan what is the aluminium edging ? Is that to stop weeds going into the beds It to help stop the grass growing into the flowerbeds. You can do concrete but I don't like that or plastic. She said aluminium was the best choice. Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 379Apr 18, 2016 9:44 pm Love the look of the aluminium edging, look forward to seeing the landscaping Re: Blueprint Home Finished - waiting for key handover! 380Apr 18, 2016 9:50 pm Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Fencing finished, just waiting on gate and side return now.
