Yard work is so satisfying…the results stay so much longer than housework!
Amen
You are beautiful with or without makeup ❤
Awe, thank you ☺️!
What a difference. I love the way it looks now. Your hard work paid off, now you can set back, relax and admire it. A very nice job. Hope your fur baby gets back to you. Prayers for that to happen...take care ❤❤❤
Thank you so much ☺️! We are still praying too.
Looks Great! I would forget about trying to get grass to grow in that bald patch and lay down some flagstone. Good luck!
Hey friend, wonderful job as usual 🌸 Don’t allow people to bully you into explaining your personal business. Your sweetness in your explanations makes me save until the, but ppl will always look for something negative to about everything 🌸
Great job, Julie. It looks really good. I love doing yard work, mowing, weedeating and all, but I'm 71 now and my back just can't take it anymore. I wind up in bed for 2-3 days if I try to do anything anymore and I really miss it. I've always used battery powered yard equipment and they are so much easier. Blessings to you and your beautiful family. btw, I love this Home and Family channel you've created.
My Granny Thornhill had Sandy dirt like yours, and they lived in Georgia, she would get out and rake the dirt and would pull up the grass. It was neat going out there on Sunday, our father would take our bikes and we love riding in their yard. She had section off her yard and had flower garden it was so pretty. All the section of was fun to ride between her flower garden.
We had bare spots in our yard and couldn't get any grass to grow for years.My husband put bird feeders in the yard, and low and behold, we have grass.
My sister loves every EGO product she has purchased. I love the bird bath space you redid.
You could put bark mulch over the area that grass doesn’t grow. It will keep the dirt down. Good job
Looks beautiful!!!!!!❤ You have inspired me to fix up my front steps!!!!!
I love that brand of power tools. I had bought Hart brand from Wal-Mart. It was junk. You will love the weed-eater. I also have the Ego chainsaw. Love it too..
You might want to try using a tiller , so the grass can take root ... Be sure to put straw over the your seeds to help keep the bird's from eating them all ... Make sure you wet the ground ... Hope this helps !!!
I pray you are in a safe place from the hurricane!
That looks great!!!
You have a way with everything you touch. Called weed mat. Add pennies to a clean bird bath keeps water cleaner longer. Replace when needed.
Thank you ☺️! Oh I’ll definitely do that because we are constantly cleaning.
Looks fabulous 👏👏👏👏
It turned out great!
It looks really nice!
Looks beautiful❤
Beautifully done ❤
Wow what a difference. It looks great.
That turned out really pretty! Thank you for sharing 🤍
I live in Canada & a new thing we are doing is planting clover instead of grass. There are different types of clover for shade, sun etc. maybe it would work for your area!
It looks very nice. 💞
Love the new look.
It looks great very smart with the trim.
Love the upgrade. Lantana is one of my favorite plants does so good in heat.
It turned out so pretty, I think both sides looks great
I think that turned out wonderfully! Great job!
You did a great job!! It looks so nice.
Love it! You’ve given me a great project idea for my yard! TFS! ❤🤍💙
Julie, you did a beautiful job! As for your ground that won’t grow grass, you really need to till the ground up and work in some bags of potting soil to mediate the soil. It’s just got so much sand and clay in that area, plus the years of pine tree debris, it’s just depleted the soil and packed it down. After you do that, not sure if you grow Bahia grass in Texas, but it is virtually drought resistant. I had it in Florida and yes it would dry out & turn brown during the no rain and lots of heat but, if it rains, it comes right back. So, there’s another project for you & hubby. 😂😂😂😂 You really did make a huge difference, looks great. 😊❤😊❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love how everything turned out on the outdoor project, great job!
It looks really amazing Julie 🌻🐓🌻
Great Job Julie!! It looks so nice.🎉🎉
Hey Julie, family, and fur babies. Way to get it done. Looks nice. STTB
Looks really nice!
You did a great job! 😍
Fun learning about your new equipment.
Great job🎉
in your yard saiing - maybe find an "old picket fence" that leaned up against the water faucet will look great -just a suggestion - not an insult - sharing here
Julie, lots of hard work but looks so good! Great job with your new tool selection, I like they are not super loud and seem to have good power. This makes you smile each time you walk by!
What a gorgeous transformation!!! I love seeing these types of projects b/c it gives me ideas on how to up my landscaping layout. You are amazing!! You’re so pretty, made up or not. And still praying for Mimi… for her speedy and healthy return… love you and your family!! God bless you Julie!!!
Julie,
Your outdoor project looks amazing. The bird bath is so nice and what a deal.
Looks beautiful! Great idea to have a solar light there.
Good job julie
Very pretty!
Cute!
In place of the lattice I’ve seen people use old doors and they look so amazing. Just an idea.
Great transformation! We actually just bought the same blower from Lowes last week. This is our 2nd Ego product and we really like the way you can use the batteries too. We have a wrap around porch that is way to much to sweep and especially when it's hot. Now it only takes but about 10 minutes or so to blow it off. Feels good to get things accomplished!!
It turned out so nice! Great job!
Amen Julie, I was just like you couldn't wait or wouldn't ask for help so always done myself. Now I can hardly do anything without help. You done a fantastic job, it looks so good. You're hired ! Lol
It looks so much better now. Your cats ars beautiful.
Wow! That turned out so nice! It really made a big difference.
Thank you! ☺️
Beautiful !
I really like the outdoor equipment you picked out. I have been thinking about getting a battery powered blower that I can handle, now you have encouraged me to get it. Since you mentioned the grass not growing in that spot, try a ground cover instead. I think something like ajuga would be great, it doesn't take much and it fills in fast with pretty spring time blooms as a bonus.
I love the new makeover! It looks beautiful and fresh! I love to work in my yard and I appreciate you demonstrating the EGO products. When I need to replace what equipment I have, I will remember that brand. Tfs❤
Thank you ☺️! I love them so far!
very very nice, I love it, keep on going
Nice project! As far as where you can't grow grass, have you considered just adding pretty brown gravel. A lot of yards use decorative gravel in places grass struggles to grow or in place of having more grass to mow. Just a thought. 😊
I love doing this kind of transformation on my gardens. You did an Awesome job. Looks so good. I had to go to corded weed eater and blower, Just can't do the other anymore. The area of dirt with no grass you could do sand or wood chips. Help it to not be muddy and would look nice. Drink lots of water it is hot out there.
Yes, I did Julie and it looks fantastic.And this looks fantastic and those flowers.You need another one on the other sad.Good job , and your daughter was right
Julie , I’m the same. I would rather do it myself. Last year I pulled my shoulder out trying to start lawn mower. I asked for an ego lawnmower and I absolutely love it! All I have to do is push a button to start it. I’m sure you will enjoy it 😊
I just love watching your videos!
Thank you ☺️! I appreciate that so much.
So very pretty makes me want to go out to my yard❤
Julie, this turned out so nice, love it. Love the new videos on this channel. Thanks for sharing these products being single it’s always good to get a woman’s opinion on things they use. Have a great week. 💜💜💜
You are so welcome! I am loving them!
Just found your channel, love your independence and style. New subscriber ☺️☺️🙂
Looks great...so fresh and clean! Those bricks can be turned to fit into each other. Put one down and turn the next one in the opposite direction so the sides lineup and they have a close fit. Hard to explain but if you play around with them you will probably figure it out. They are designed to fit next to each other in a coordinated way. Good luck!
It looks so good. I always loved doing projects like that, but I'm getting too old, and Texas is a scorcher!
I love it!!
Thank you! ☺️
Looks beautiful !!
As you were filming with newer pavers, I was saying to myself…. Just make a pattern to incorporate the new ones. That way they don’t look out of place. We did our landscaping with them many years ago. The landscape timbers were rotten & we just did those instead. We have around our tree trunks too & I planted hosta & day Lilly for no maintenance. We used lava rock instead of mulch. I do love the white rock you chose. I’m a doer too. I hate to wait when I want it done. It’s immediately or faster. 😂
Great job!! Love it.
Thanks so much!
Beautiful!!!❤
Thank you! 😊
That wee space looks amazing.Your bald patch in your back garden,if you could penetrate into the ground,what about planting some fruit trees.Then when they grow it will create shade and you will have grass there.
Julie that small area is so cute and peaceful. We have the big white rocks along side half of the front of the house and on each side of walkway to the door. It was done like this when we bought the house. I have seen several videos where you put the white rocks tap them down and pour some kind of glue like substance and its like cement after. My husband just gives me the eye. It does feel so good to get projects done around the house. I have one planned similar to your but with an antique water pump and landscape timbers. But its a slow go. Getting down is my problem. Need a forklift to help me up. Weak back and knees. I enjoyed the video. And I was gonna say, I am like you, I love to do stuff myself and hate waiting for someone else. Those babies had to check out what you were doing. And yes, still praying for the lost baby to return. Great job
Thank you! Yes, my back is not liking me today lol.
We have it and I love it!
You always add a beautiful touch to your home. Called weed mat. When you have a clean birdbath add a few pennies to the water. It keeps the water cleaner for awhile. Then redo every so often with new pennies.
They’re so good!
Thank you so much ☺️!
I luv, luv'd this video Julie! Came out beautiful.The white rock made the difference! ❤❤❤
Thank you! ☺️
I love all my power tools for the same reasons.
Looks great!❤
Thank you! 😊
New subscriber love yard work
I love the update . So pretty and functional for you all. We rent here but drives me nuts that I pull out the weeds with the roots and they come right back . This is in our front yard up against our house . I would probably need to do the process that you did to make it look pretty and add some things to it .
We have a hard dirt grass free area that we have used fake outdoor grass type carpet on. It helps keep dirt/mud from getting tracked inside.
Love the redo on that area. Praying for your little doggie🙏❤
Thanks so much!
Julie, you have inspired me as well. I'm actually an inside the home decorator. Never have I ever thought about my outside space. I leave that up to my husband😊 However, I might give it a shot now. This turned out so stinking cute 😍
Thank you! ☺️
It looks so nice
Thank you! ☺️
@@thrilledthrifterhome thank you for taking us along and giving us ideas
Looks great!
Thank you! ☺️
Looks great Julie ❤ if there were pine trees you may need to add lime to your soil because that’s what I have to do 👍🏻 just a thought
I’m so glad you mixed the pavers cause that’s what I was trying to say in the video,mix them mix them lol😂. It turned out absolutely beautiful. You done a wonderful job. Thanks for sharing.😊. Thank you for sharing your new items for yard work, your blower and your weedeater. Very nice. ♥️. God bless and have a wonderful Sunday….🍃💗🍃
Thank you ☺️!
Good job, Julie.
Thank you ☺️!
Hi Julie, love how it all turned out, so beautiful and I love the birdbath too. When you first started that leaf blower I dropped my phone lol❤have a nice evening, and God Bless Brenda
I’m so sorry. I tried to warn y’all lol and I turned the volume level way down.
Julie I know how you feel about having your own power tools . Our husband's tools to heavy. Just bought my own battery operated weed eater . 😅 we just got our first little shower of rain just a little bit ago
In a month in my location farmers suffering grass dying
So happy to see this rain. You did a beautiful job on this space. We got a areas in our yard we can't get grass to grow too . I think we need some new topsoil. Thanks for sharing love the birds bath .
Thank you! ☺️
LOOKS AWESOME. THIS WAS SO THERAPUTIC TO ME. LOL I AM LIKE YOU I WANT TO DO IT MYSELF. I HAVE MY OWN LIKE YOU LOL
Absolutely! My dad raised me to just do it lol
@@thrilledthrifterhome MINE TOO... DIDN'T WANT ME TO HAVE TO THINK I HAD TO DEPEND ON ..ANY MAN LOL... I AM TOO INDEPENDENT I THINK BECAUSE OF IT LOL. LOVE YOUR OUTCOME... AS ALWAYS LOL
Girl, you are pretty WITHOUT makeup 😊. Cute cat. Great info to know😊 looks beautiful, you did a great job!❤
Great job! Looks good! 👍
Thank you! ☺️
Love the power tools. I don;t think Lowes carries the brand that we use, but our youngest son bought us Ryobi battery powered tools as housewarming gift 6 years ago. We also have some of his other lawn care items because he is living with friends and his tools and such are in storage in our garage, I love the blower and the weed eater, especially. He also bought us a Ryobi bug zapper, and a mini chains saw for Mothers and Fathers day... they even have a ryobi lawnmower now! I can do them myself like you said, and some of my husbands tools are SO heavy! Creeping thyme may work for your area where grass won't grow....
Try artificial grass or turf. I've done some in my yard and it looks good. I believe Lowes carry it. Astro turf. You did a great job. I'm going to check out those tools.
You may need to till
Oh ok! Thank you! ☺️
Wow so pretty! Great job done.
Thank you! 😊
I like your finished result. I think I would purchase a couple more flowering plants, pot them, and add them to the back side, just for a little added intetest and color.
Pea gravel would work or river rock you could set plants around that would work in the Texas climaye😊
Those are great yard equipment. We have several of their products.
I am loving them.
Julie you might want to look into a retractable hose makes life so much easier
I definitely need that in my life. Thank you ☺️!
