kpvxl Q. We’re renting a little home while building our new home. There is a cement patio screened by a trellis on two sides that is the primary view from the kitchen area as well as dining areas. Over the summertime I have filled it with potted plants, however in the winter season it will be extremely bleak if I can’t discover a method to gown it up. Suggestions?
A. Try draping grapevine from your trellis in the autumn as well as winter. Grapevine is offered at numerous art supply stores or florist shops, does not requirement maintenance, as well as will last best with up until spring. adding strands of small white lights intertwined with the grapevine will produce a sparkly, lovely area for sipping hot cider or wine. You can even make your patio area much more joyful by hanging gourds or little pumpkins in the fall, as well as sprigs of juniper, boxwood or holly during the holidays.
