Ever since I moved into my house I have hated the bushes the line the south side of the house. They are so ugly! It has been my dream to rip them out and make the foundation pretty. And now its finally happening!!!
Step 1: Rip out the bushes…
This might sound easier than it was. Those things were in there good! Dad came up a couple of weekends ago and we worked on yanking them out. I was very very tired the next day.
Step 2: Chip off the old cement…
At some point in my houses history someone thought they would make the foundation look better by spraying on cement. I don’t know if it ever looked good…but now it is horrible. So the next step was to chip it all off.
Step 3: Cover the foundation…
(this is the most exciting part!) I have ordered the foundation covering from Menards and hopefully it will be here by the weekend. I am so excited to see how it will look when it is completed and pretty. This might be my most favorite improvement ever!
Step 4: Landscaping…
This step is probably a couple of weeks away but I am very excited about it also! Photos to come…
coincidence? the church just got rid of their bushes, too…it took a huge payloader and some pretty large chains only about 15 minutes to do it…I think it took longer to load them in the dump truck than to remove them
