Outdoor Dreamin"

As the weather took a turn for the worse this week (white stuff was spotted, but didn't stick around), I have been planning and dreaming about the projects I want to get done outside.

When we bought our old schoolhouse last summer, we traded a VERY SMALL yard for 1.2 acres.

The yard is landscaped nicely, but we do want to make it our own.  We need to add walkways around the greenhouse and out front.  I like this concrete mold one (from Dream Garden 101)for the front:

and a more casual gravel path around the greenhouse like this one from Brinitzer.com:

We want to build a fire pit and like these ideas:

I want to make some solar path lights,

And string lights

And then there is the patio I haven't quite convinced hubby I need...
