This is, how our garden looked like, when we moved in. It was completely cluttered with stuff.
Garden shed was filled with trash and whole space looked to me more like rubbish heap than
a garden. Most important think is, that I already had an idea what I want to do with it. I saw
potential in that small piece of land in my head.

At first of all I had to create few sketches and ideas to decide which option will be best for our small garden and for our tight budget. My priorities were to create spacious garden full of small but interesting details. I wanted to combine style, and functionality. These are few sketches with some basic ideas. |

We decided to go with option No.2 It was closest to our budget and needs. It means that we had to remove all rubbish we did not need. I tried to save as much materials as possible, but shed was heavily rotted and most of timber had to go. Skid was filled to to top and next day we started with digging :-) |

Ground was full of stones and gravel and I had to buy few bags of proper soil to improve quality base for new grass. Walls were painted to white and gray. Different colors made whole space more interesting and opened. Bamboo fencing was fitted to back wall for natural touch. We treated bamboo and all timber with outdoor paint suitable for wood fencing. It's better for performance and longer lasting |

After hard work with ground we finished painting and start with planting of plants and trees. Because I always wanted water feature in a garden I decided to make a small pond with for fish. Pond was my last item on a list. |
