Andrea, this is such a timely, gorgeous video! My husband & I have been putting more effort into our yard than ever before & as you know projects can be expensive. Thank you for the budget friendly ideas & taking the time to share!

Don't beat yourself up over your choice of landscape fabric. Cheap or expensive, weeds grown ON TOP of the landscape fabric, not much one can do. Love your home, your yard, everything.

I love that you talk about the Lord! Way to go! Blessings...

I just learned this trick! Buy a jug of mulch glue to spray your pea gravel with. (If you haven't already.) It will keep your pea gravel under control and also helps with weed control! Love your walkway idea.

It’s so hard to not want everything done at once. It’s a good reminder to take time and get one thing done at a time- I needed to hear that today :)

[binabrach]

So beautifully charming! You're very fortunate to have a loving husband to help with all those projects!

Awe! Those little boys playing with garden. Lovely family

Hello, I saw the title and said to myself..."let me watch to see if I can get any ideas"...I have to say I was more inspired by how God provided materials through your church and church members as well as wisdom through your dad. As I was watching your son walking around the flower beds on the rocks I had a HUGE Smile on my face, because I pictured the image of walking on streets of gold in Heaven. Your backyard is a heavenly scene. Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings.

I love repurposed items… Love the sidewalk.. Weeds are going to grow… I use vinegar, dawn, salt and it works great on my weeds in my sidewalk.. Works and no harmful chemicals… Love all your ideas.. So natural..

[plattepuss]

I love your lilacs. They are my favorite. Wish they bloomed all year long.

Great job‼♥️🇹🇹
Tip.. corrugated cardboard is the best thing for weed blocking. And its biodegradable.
Got the tip from that show from HGTV" Backyard crashers " show. It works!👍🏾

Love this! Thanks for sharing how to get creative when on a budget. Always good to check for free stuff on Facebook marketplace, too and I love trades! A friend of mine and I are always trading plants, pots, anything free that I see that I don’t have a place for I always grab for a friend to share or do a DIY on it, sell it and get what l want. ❤❤❤ You have a beautiful yard and home! 🤩

I LOVE THE WALKWAY I'M TEMPTED TO PUT ONE IN MYSELF ALSO THE CREEK BED GREAT IDEA THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ALWAYS

[Lamara]

This hear you loud and clear on the reuse, reclaim and recycle. We have many projects like that at our home. It is so gratifying to do something that others think you had someone else do for you.

[cherylmiller]

Hey Andrea, y'all are so thrifty and imaginitve! Everything you do inspires all of us with creativity and beauty! Can hardly ever wait to see what you have to inspire us with next! You are so delightful to watch and all of y'all's hard work not only shows but also makes a beautiful statement. Your little boy pulling those weeds is priceless 😍! Take care....❤️😘🥰🤩‼️

[kimberlytl]

That walkway is perfect! What we have found to work better than landscape fabric is laying down newspaper, and soaking it. We did this under mulch & still no weeds 5 years later!

[heatherannekennedy]

Your outdoor space is simply charming - and I love that you did it on a budget!

[maria.p]

Storybook home. Everything is so beautiful.

I have wanted guttering on my house for 34 years. Forget it. I am doing the stone dry creek bed now I collect as much water I can with water troughs for my animals and flowers, but now I can do both! Even a mix of cement and stone will work. Thanks! 😊

[margaretfinney]

You are truly an amazing mother and wife, and your family is so lucky to have you make them a cozy home.💕
