Backyard Mural

We finally gave our backyard a makeover! We were going for a Palm Springs, Japanese garden, street art vibe. Once it was done, I wanted to paint a mural on our wall to add some pizzazz, and give us something brighter to look at.

We replaced the grass with an easy to maintain decomposed granite, and plants that work well with the native climate. We also put in a ground level gas fire pit, which is a new favorite place for our family to hang out.

 

 

Here’s the before photo. We’re really not good at keeping grass alive :)
