You are the sweetest little girl I know Thank you sweetie I just lost my husband 11monthes ago I’m 71 years old live alone no family so your helping me so much I need you to tell me something on hay Harding I can’t dig I just had 2 operations in 2016 on my neck and I want a garden I heard hay all I have to do is place the hay down and plant in it . Thank you doll. God bless you and everything you touch
My fav after church activity - drinking a cup of coffee while catching up on Garden Answer. Good people doing beautiful things. Blessings to you and your family Laura.
I love this! I've been trying to come up with a cheap or free material for a walkway that I could build around the perimeter of my property a little at a time. Pallets are perfect. I've broken down a number of pallets and I love the idea of cutting all of the nails with a reciprocating saw. Muuuuch faster! I have a suggestion for next time. You could have stacked a bunch of the pallet boards with one side of the ends lined up together and drilled through them all at once, then flipped them and lined up the other end to drill through at once. They would have the holes before you laid them on the ground. I love your RU-vid channel. 🙂
Great idea for a video or series of videos. Especially now that they’ve been doing different themed garden videos like side gardens, water features, containers, etc.
Old comment, but very curious to what you think is a power tool. She uses a cordless circular saw at 1:28 to cut them. Do you have a power nail/board puller or something? 🤣
Great idea!I enjoy your videos and you have taught me some better ideas of how to do some things. I am 75, and love working with plants. God bless you.
I think it’s absolutely lovely! My husband and I laid a pebble pathway. It was easy to get it leveled given the nature of pebbles, but it was pricey and a lot of heavy lifting. Laura you made this look easy, and it is a really great look. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this! We have long wanted a path for our community garden and we saw this at just the right moment. We were thrilled to.open this year's season with the path completed and have gotten nothing but raves for the "rustic" design.
I have always used my Sawsall to break down Pallets...Additionally, when using Pallets for Vegtable gardens, or for indoor projects such as bed frames etc. be sure to use Heat Treated Pallets..You also might want to run the boards through a Planer... Pallets are so much fun!!!!
You must be from Hicksville, Barnsville or Shabbytown USA. Anywhere else homeowner would trash these ugly pallets or reuse them to store bags of manure (cows/horses/pigs and hillbilly farmers shit too).
I bought packs of picket fence and sawed the pointed in off then placed over 3/4"x2"x8' rails of wood. After 8 years it was rotting & worn so graduated to 2x4 on 2x6 railing. Everyone loves the wood.
Oh this looks wonderful! I'd love to do something like this one day when I have a larger yard :) I also squealed out of the sheer CUTENESS of baby Benjamin walking on it. So sweet
This is exactly what my husband and I are going to do around our yard. I love the look. We always go with Black mulch too so that plants and flowers against the black really pop. Thank you...Looks great.
Thanks for another great idea, Laura. We have a number of pallet projects we've done in the past so we're always looking for new ideas to keep the theme going, especially since they are very economical!
I was thinking at first, gees why would you want to cover up that lovely dark mulch Laura ... but once those boards went down and the job was completed I thought ... WOW, now that looks G.O.O.D ... Job well thought of, it looks spectacular Laura 👍🏼👏🏼🕊
Hi, I love your beautiful garden, It always looks so good. I really love seeing projects that you can actually afford, it would be awesome if you would do those kinds of videos cause most of us don't have that much money these days and that really looks great. Thank you so much for sharing what you know. God bless y'all real good✝️🥀💚
Oh wow the final looks turns out to be amazing. I love it. & super cute to see Benjamin is learning to walk 😚 Plz do add Benjamin in every video. We kinda miss him if he is not around. Would love to see how he is progressing in life. The Cuteness must continue in the videos
This is beautiful! BUT! Save your back! If you ever do a project like this again, drill multiple boards at a time BEFORE laying them down! Just clamp them together. You had a nice long drill bit. My back has sympathy pains for you. With that said, It is absolutely gorgeous! 2 thumbs up!
JayJay I would have to do it the same way she did because our ground is literally 90% rock. We have to use a jack hammer to plant a small flower. I wouldn't be able to push the pin into the ground.
I love her videos. Im starting to attempt more gardening and she is so beautiful, good natured, independent and very knowledgeable regarding plants/flowers, veggies, building, etc. I have to admit, the entire time I'm watching this I'm just thinking about how anyone can afford all of these plants. Their property is gorgeous and their home. Super cool!
Love your channel! Love your work. Please! Use safety glasses. Sunglasses just add to the crap we in the ER have to remove from your eye! No kidding, Benjamin needs a Mom with 2 eyes. Hugs and love!
Sick!!!! This is the coolest project ever. We have been planting a garden in our rental for 3 years now, and we're always looking for affordable upgrades. I can't with to do this project. Plus my SO already impulse bought those power tools, when we built our raised beds.. I had to chuckle when you mentioned your hubby found an excuse to buy more battery operated tools.
I really like this one! IMO the garden is a perfect place to recycle and repurpose. YEA for you! That path is so, so cute! I would love to see you do other things like this such as; wine bottle borders or urbanite projects (old concrete).
I love this project! I noticed you put a fountain in the area around the tool shed also the archway? When are you going to do a walk- thru in that area? The vine are beautiful and I would like to see a little more in depth around the whole area. Looks like the hydrangeas are looking awesome! Can you maybe do a video with those past projects??? Please, please? Thank you!
This is my favorite project you've ever done, and the beds around this walkway, the whole area, is my favorite part of your property! Ever since I saw this the first time, I've been trying to figure out if I could do it at my place and where I'd put it....
Love this and as far as I am concerned...genius! My only concerned with Garden Answer is I don't have to space to do all her wonderful ideas but love watching their videos!
Ohhhhhh I wanna do this so bad!!! I have a HUGE pallette my hubby brought home from work. I thought about ripping them apart and making herb box gardens out of them but this is so much more prettier!!
Awesome job! Perfect. I love how whimsical and magical this looks. Your own cottage garden. Now all you need are lights along the path to make it dreamy. I have the perfect spot and didn’t know what to use so thank you for the inspiration. Love it. My kind of pathway for sure. Will look for those pins as well. Didn’t know they made them. 🌸🦋🌸
I’ve been wanting to do this forever!!! Thank you for making this so I can just show my husband and make him do it for me 🤣 (Also- that part of your garden has really come a long way!! So gorgeous!)
What a fun project and I see the pineapple fountain is hooked up as well. Can't wait to see the video for that. I like the look of the pallets as well and a cheap alternative for a path.
...and any excuse to bring Benjamin into the video is a bonus to all of us. He needs a shovel and a pile a dirt so he can start early in the “company business”.
Looks great.....probably will only last a few years sitting on the ground untreated but lifting it and treating the boards would add a ton of work.....very energetic......thank you
I LOVE this walkway. It looks like a large fairy garden path. With the plantings you have and that path, it is a version of one of your fairy container gardens
Just leave the pallets stacked when you saw them. Another tip: lift 1 pallet and drop it on a corner, do this on the opposite corner as well. And the boards will be easier to take off the middle part.
