COASTAL SUPPLIES GARDEN DESIGN
























We worked against the weather all day, but were determined to finish the pebble path and did. We thought we would finish at lunch time, but then discovered how hard it is to plaster. The cement kept falling off the step! Everyone else was completely oblivious of our frustration and stress levels, and interupted us all day asking advice and borrowing all our tools, all day every day
(hence the title) I guess I dont mind usually but today it was too much. We kept running out of stones. The stones we oredered were really ugly, Brenda andI found pebbles in an old pond in the graveyard full of old rotten water. After that they all have to be scrubbed and then wet when laid. My hands are like prunes today.
I am sure Hennies sinuses are completely clogged with cement.


The cemcrete paint samples came today. Not sure if we have the right colours. The light grey is too light, but Ilike it. The dark grey is not right and the sea green too cold mmmmmm.... tomorrows problem. Time is really running short, we have so much to do!

We will finish and it will be fabulous, I know it. Til tomorrow.
