Ah, the urban garden! Just in case you missed Alex's House Tour last Wednesday (or in case we hadn't overexposed Alex enough ;-)), we wanted to share a few pictures just of her garden. It's really marvelous. Just click below the jump....
"While most sane New Yorkers got outta Dodge over the Memorial Day holiday, I saw the three-day break as a perfect opportunity to finally dig into my garden and turn that sort-of-sad lot into a flowery and peaceful oasis. Blowing a load of cash on soil, edging, pebbles, and plants I basically created what you see above (please excuse the bad Frankenstein photo)...." for more go to Alex's blog, the Shelterlife.

I've wanted a door like that ever since I was a kid & watched Soupy Sales and Mister Ed (they both had the same door).

If it looks this good the first year of its life, imagine how it will look when the vines and plants have all grown and the whole thing is settled in! I agree with Kristina about the fire pit in the middle.
