It is essential for me to find a way to decompress and to relinquish the worries that do not seem to disappear. One of the better ways for me to be able to do this is to sit down in my garden and read a good book. The problem is that my garden is rather small and could use more work. Lately I have thought of a few things to add to it.
I enjoy to read and doing it outside makes it even better. The trouble is that I don't enjoy to sit on a lawn chair to do it. One of the best things that I could contribute to the garden is a swing. With this I will be able to lounge around in it for hours at a time and relish in the sunset with someone special.
A trellis is another great thing to add and it can go over the swing. I would wish to have something that is exquisite but rustic. It would also be great if I wrapped roses or even jasmine around it. In that way it would appear romantic and smell pleasing while I enjoy my relaxation time.
It constantly help to have some type of shade when the sun is shining brightly on us. For this I would like to plant a big magnolia tree. These are large - but do not always grow too tall. The flowers that will bloom each year are pink or white and look exquisite. This is likewise a great way to add something that smells sweet to the mix.
Lastly I would love to put in some landscaping lights. These come in various sizes and styles and work great around the garden. It would be a great way to show off everything when night falls and is great for when I want a way to brighten up the yard while eating out with family.
