santa barbara sky

thoughts on this new year. mostly, i want to take things a little slower. breathe a bit deeper... this gorgeous sunset called us off of the freeway on our way back from santa barbara the other day to do just that.

i hope you are enjoying this new year. we are so thankful for the amazing support that we have had over the past 3 years of everything gardens. we will be implementing some big changes in 2011 and hope that you'll continue to follow us on our journey.

xoxo vanessa and stephanie

i just returned from a restful retreat in mexico and am feeling ready to tackle the world (or at least the holiday season :)

it's been a while since i shared some current work. we really have to get back and take photos of all of the great projects we have been working on lately. for now, i'll share conzuelo and mike's garden in silver lake.

m & they came to us to shape up and customize their little space and make it kid friendly for their son. so far we have tiled the hardscape, built out a custom day bed/bench which we have tiled with the most beautiful tile that we designed! we just finished the pergola and we'll be planting up the garden and adding synthetic grass for a play area. i'll take more overall photos when we have everything complete.










this is mid-pergola building - the finished pergola is stunning and just needs to get sealed. it's amazing how much larger their space feels now.

heading out for now, you can find us at Unique LA this weekend at the CA market center. we'll be in booth 178.

lotusland

here to share photos of our trip to the beautiful gardens of lotusland in santa barbara in an effort to make you forget how long it has been since i last blogged.



is it working?

waiting

i took photos of all of these plants waiting patiently in our holding zone to go into their new home this week. i feel that having a tight color palette is so important to a garden. it's really what ties the design together. this one is such a lovely mix of colors and textures with the silver artemesia, dudleya and salvia to the pink echeveria, heuchera, thyme and sedum.
