As you already may know, since we came from Disneyland Paris, we have been busy with the frontyard (voortuin).
Yesterday, we put this bell we have bought at Intratuin. They have many garden decorations as this one related with the Efteling Park theme.
I wanted to create a clear and colourful entrance with blue and white hortensias in the front garden.
So, in May, we have taken away all the bushes and the tree located next to the fence.
The tree we took away...
...and the place where it was...
We had so much work in the voortuin during the last weeks! Sixteen bags like these went to the garbage bin.
We bought the hortensias at the Pinksterdag markt (Pentecost Market).
Before planting the hortensias, we painted the fence and the door frame. The first in brown and the second in white.
Now I want to buy more garden decorations and take away the tree in front of the kitchen's window.
I will give it to Masha, the daughter of the previous owners. She planted it when she was younger. It's Masha's tree ;-)
I'm thinking about planting red roses instead, you see... :-)

Que bonito. Gostei do sino e das hortensias. Bjs!
Hi Sandra,
So much work to do, but it will be so rewarding to make it your own style. Have fun doing it!
Fijne dag!

@Margarida: Obrigada! :-) Agora tenho de ser paciente e deixar as hortensias crescerem. O sino da um ar campestre, nao e? ;-) A vedacao tambem ficou mais bonita. Era cinzenta, uma cor um bocado deprimente, pelo menos, para mim. Bjs! :-)
@ Jacoba :-) Yes, it has been fun ;-) I like hortensias very much. Let's see how they grow! Kusjes! :-)
Sandra, tão bonito o seu pátio jardim. Adoro hortenses, brancas nunca arranjei mas tenho rosa forte e azul.
Bjs e boa jardinagem. :)
@Ana: :-) Agora so devo retomar em Setembro, quando a outra arvore for retirada do canteiro e la puder plantar umas rosas :-) Beijinhos!
Agora percebo melhor um dos comentários que deixaste lá pelo meu canto. Eu também fiquei maravilhada com o teu "front yard". Lindas hortênsias!
Beijinhos :)
@Obrigada, Sara! Ainda nao esta como eu quero, mas vai devagarinho! Estou deserta de ver as hortensias mais crescidas, plantar umas rosas, comprar mais decoracoes. Mas neste momento ja nao posso fazer mais nada. Chove e chove ha semanas, com um ou outro dia de sol aqui e ali...Tive mesmo que aproveitar aquelas duas semanas em Maio e alguns dias em Junho para limpar o matagal, pintar a vedacao, o umbral da porta, e plantar as hortensias...a meteorologia manda na minha vida, agora ;-)))
Beijinhos! Ainda estou a pensar naquele Chagall!! :-))
