I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that I love a beautiful backyard. Since I was small, my mother has had collections of gardening magazines sitting on the coffee table and bookshelf. I would flip pages that showcased beautiful statues standing among rosebushes; water features...
When we last left the Playhouse Project (part deux), we had come up with a way to make the railing happen. Mr. Suburble said, “Lattice!” And I said, “Let’s not.” So we didn’t. We whipped up a porch with these fancy-pants cedar balusters from the aisles of...
