Makeover Games in the Backyard


I’m a big fan of spreading the makeover love well beyond the basic wardrobe. I’ve been working lately on making over the backyard. Why? Because it needed it and it’s a great way to get a bit of outdoor exercise and some fresh air. My backyard is a disaster area much in need of some love and makeover games. The yard is full of rocks and dead plants that were here from years ago. Our first step was to get rid of most of them in order to figure out what was underneath. The end results will be stunning, but the process is most certainly time consuming.

Playing makeover games in the backyard requires me to be out there with work gloves and a shovel. I’m okay with that. It’s like take away years of neglect and replacing it with a bit of TLC. Just like I can change my look with a few new pieces, I can change the look of my backyard by taking out some of the junk and putting in something that looks nice. I’m not done with my makeover games just yet, but the yard is most certainly looking much improved.
