Tenderloin-
I was on the fence about painting the gravel board. OH had strong feelings about not painting.
Those two fence panels are starting to silver so hopefully they'll blend in once there's trellis on top. That said the infinity screen feel of having the white go up a bit appealed. Especially as my original idea for the decking was to continue the horizontal boards up the back.
We've moved around a few bits to try out so will post an update once #2 is asleep.

On the rose posts, mine is about to kick off.
We've postponed our morning-sun decking project for the moment. Time and fears about timber prices mean idk when we'll get to it. So in the meantime we've tidied the space painted the concrete slab with what was on offer in Wickes. I forgot to take a pic before we tidied, so you need to imagine the before including a plastic sandpit, recycling box and every piece of conseavable crap a toddler could find and relocate.
Next up is fresh gravel, painting the window, trellis, pots, etc. Going to try and grow common(?) jasmine up the brick wall. Pic with the chairs gives an idea of what we're going for eventually.
