    Adding string lights is such a magical touch! ✨ It's like turning your backyard into a fairytale wonderland.

    Beautiful! Fill in those cracks in the concrete if you can then paint again. I love the black mulch

    If there's room... I'd suggest adding more evergreens or other winter hardy plants that go with your color scheme. This way, you'll still have vibrant color during the end of fall/winter

    The fountain you chose is one that I had looked at previously, but being British, I wanted one with a lion’s head. I found one on OfferUp and finished it with a copper and green patina. Keep up the great work. A Brit living in Florida.

    You should fill the cracks and do the stenciled flooring on the concrete.

    I've done my own backyard with white flowers and black mulch, along with painting the fence black. I've planted over 300 white caladium bulbs.

    Shout out to the men who have to do the hard laborious work 😊❤ not saying we don't work but their work is a little harder. I know that I've had many projects around here where my husband really had to strain himself to get it done. I appreciate it ❤ The courtyard looks wonderful

    Love your back yard. The fountain is amazing. The only thing I would do is paint your silver shelf black. It would tie in everything.

    Please fill in the cracks with cement glue then paint. You’ll did an amazing job with the courtyard and I also loved the color choices of your flowers.

    Just an idea, once you patched the cracks, you could have tried priming it and repainting it.

    Hi, it looks nice. Perhaps you could paint over the cracks with another coat of patio paint. You did it, it does look like an English cottage garden. May I ask where you purchased the trellis? Love those :) Thanks

    • @GabbyChristinee

    Just an FYI, your pressure washer wasn't on full pressure. It would've taken off all the dirt and old paint. Fully. I have this same pressure washer and what I saw from the video you didn't have it on full pressure.
