Summer Dreaming

At CH1 we are doing lots of dreaming of summer projects to make our space a great space to share with our neighbors and I have been perusing Pinterest for ideas and will share a few with you...


In the past our neighborhood association has had a big neighborhood garden, but we have found it is hard to manage, so this year we thought about doing some raised bed gardens throughout the neighborhood. This is the plot where we thought a raised bed garden would be perfect:

 

Another area we would like to do some fun projects is on the side of the house:

 
   

Our dreams for this side of the house include:

- A hopscotch path with stepping stones


- A Little Free Library


- A Kindness Rocks Garden


- A Fun, Whimsical Area to Gather and Play

All of our inspirations are on my Pinterest board here:


In addition to dreaming of fun new spaces there are also more of maintenance items we have to consider...cleaning out the gutters, painting and sealing all of the outdoor wood trim and re-screening the doors and windows on the porch:

 
 
  

We have no idea how many projects we will complete this summer...but we enjoy planning and dreaming!

If you have some ideas for our spaces...please share them in the comments or email us at challengehouse1@gmail.com or if you would like to help us with a project or have some items that would be perfect for these spaces let us know! 

We hope you are having fun dreaming of your summer projects too!
