Many of us spend numerous hours indoors staring at screens. There is actually now a condition know as nature deficit disorder. Creating/developing outdoor living environments is an easy way to invite us outside and away from our screens and to experience the calming rhythms of nature. Some would argue that we are not “connecting” with nature we are nature. It is our home. #naturescapeslandscaping #landscaping #landscapedesign #raingardens #outdoorliving #outdoorlighting #garden #landscapeproject #gardendesign #landscapeideas #planting #outdoorspace #outdoorwaterfeatures
DO I FEEL WELCOME HERE?
When guests arrive at your home is there an obvious route to the front door. Are there 2 front doors. Which one should they go to? Is the house number prominently displayed? Is there a well lit defined pathway for guests arriving at night. There are many aspects to creating a welcoming environment for your guests. A well thought out plan can help make your home a truly inviting place. #naturescapeslandscaping #landscaping #outdoorlighting #outdoorspace #landscapingideas #outdoorliving #plantings #garden #landscapedesign #homeimprovement #gardenbeds #landscapeproject
– PRIVACY –
Feeling the need for a little privacy? For many of us, our home is our sanctuary. Creating a private environment can truly enhance your personal / family space. Strategically placed plantings can limit and even completely block site lines into your yard and also certain windows of your home. *Careful planning and implementation can help you achieve the right amount of privacy for you and your loved ones. *Options range from hedge rows to individual and group evergreen tree plantings depending on your needs and your properties layout. #naturescapeslandscaping #nature #landscaping #plants #outdoorliving #landscapeproject #landscaper #gardendesign #outdoorlighting #raingardens #pavers #outdoorspace
“KID GARDENERS”
We were recently at a flower show that offered kids a small cup filled with soil and a seed. The invitation was for the children to bring the cup home and properly water the seed until it spouted and then care for their new plant. What a wonderfully magical experience to offer to our young “budding” gardeners. The lessons of patience, caring for another living thing and the magic of nature are a few of the valuable experiences gardening can offer. And they can get their hands dirty too! #naturescapeslandscaping #nature #plants #garden #landscapedesign #outdoorliving #landscaping #gardendesign #landscaper #gardening
