Grass and Gravel

 We gave our balcony a bit of a make over a while back. The beauty and variety of grasses had recently come to my attention and I wanted to include them in our little plant family. We set out to buy some and came home with several bags of gravel as well! The tiled floor of our balcony got dirty so quickly and always looked messy, so this was our little cover up solution. It was really quick to do - we just put it all down, no plastic or cement or anythig - and as far as an afternoon make over goes, rather inexpensive too. We've loved it so much since we set it up, it makes our balcony feel more like a courtyard, and we eat lunch out there most weekends now :)
