Recently Julie helped me to get ready for a garden tour at my home. If was so helpful to have her look at my garden with her knowledge and eye for design. Julie identified small changes that made large impacts when walking through the spaces. After looking over the garden, she asked to see what I had in my garden shed. I appreciated her suggestions on using those items that I already had to create attractive seating areas and welcoming vignettes. For example, she moved a small table onto the shed porch and arranged a collection of terra cotta pots and an old scoop that looked really cute and authentic. And it didn’t cost anything! Julie was also very good at listening to me and honoring my tastes, and not pushing her own on me. I would highly recommend having Julie work with you if you are looking for someone to look at your garden with fresh eyes and “stage” your garden or take it from just OK to fun and beautiful!
