In this first photo it is all complete with a pair of vintage white chaise lounge chairs we picked up at a garage sale two years ago. They are probably from the 50s or early 60s. Tallulah decided to sneak in the picture, she is sitting on the top terrace on a chair. Isn't she cute, she loves to get in the pictures!
In this photo we have a vintage out door fire place made of cast iron. It looks heavy but at least in comes apart in two peaces for easy transport.
In this photo the work is just beginning to take shape. We have a little orchard to the right in the picture is a Lemon tree and Trangerine trees. we also have a couple of Grape vines and Banana tree, Pink Lemon tree and a Orange tree
On the terrace garden we have plants in pots some Palms and Geraniums and some other plants such as Mint and Lemon balm. Raymond Loves to add the Lemon balm to his sweet tea.
This is a picture of the Top Terrace, we can sit up there and see the small airport that the sky divers jump into. It's very relaxing on those nice summer days.
And here is a view of our garden from the bottom terrace, looking out!
In the photos you might see some old terracotta pots. I like the look of old terracotta. But once in a while I'm forced to buy brand new pots so I just rough them up some to make them look vintage. My favorite terracotta pots are made by a company called Bauer Pottery and they are from the late teens to the 40s Once in a while I find them quite cheap at the flea markets or garage sales.
And here are two of the girls relaxing again. They always seem to be relaxing while I'm doing the work. Something seem wrong here. Thank You all for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed the small tour of the terrace garden. Have a great ~ Vintage Thingie Thursday ~ And a beautiful weekend....Julian
