And utilize them throughout my smallish yard. Nothing more natural. Has an essential yet simple beauty.

I hate that blue...my Mom has the same blue on her house and I told her last week if it were MY house it would be white with black shutters! Great minds think alike I guess. And the rock work is exceptional. What does your front door look like? I see the screen (which I love) but does it hide a wonderful front door? I'd love to see what it looks like.
