And over in France

Thanks to Spike from Morschen43 in Le Puy-en-Velay, for sending over more pictures of his house and garden over there. It looks like they’re enjoying some lovely weather right now too.

We mentioned in the post the other day (here) that we loved the use of an old staircase to put window boxes on and here’s a couple here above with also a nice table from a restaurant in the Marais in Paris which was originally green and has now painted black. Nice stuff.

Another thing we love is the use of fossils (above) and some fossilised wood (below) in the garden as well. The fossilised wood was from his father who used to swap fossils and minerals with a friend in Bourgogne (aka Burgundy). Really great ideas Spike!

It’s mediterranean in the Midlands

The sun is out in full force in south London today, looks like our friends Mike & Julia have got the same up near Coventry. Mike sent us a couple of pictures of their “Mediterranean themed patio in the actual sun!” It looks brilliant, and there’s some lovely ideas going on there. Do keep sending us more pictures as things progress, ta again for the pictures and try and keep cool up there today.
