For those of you who are engineers: bite your tongues. I know there are mathematical ways to do this. I'm choosing a different way.
A quick trip to Home Depot and I had flags and two rolls of pink tape and the whole wonderful path began to take shape!!
I decided to take pictures that reveal my mistakes, because why not? Nothing about me, my life or this labyrinth is going to be precise, measured or perfect.
I have a pattern for the rocks, and also places for plantings and bird feeders. I'm SO excited!!
I can see it!!!! I really can! It's going to be incrediable. I'm so envious. Can't wait to watch the progress. I'd come help but I can't bend or hardly walk after my boot camp experience.
ReplyDeleteMost of the engineers I know are practical morons. It's a different skill, or at least it can be.
ReplyDelete(I'd have taken a long string and a walked it around a stake in the middle to make circles. I think the ribbon is a smarter approach. It gives a nice free-flowing line for the eye to follow.)
Wow. Just... wow.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to enjoy watching this come to life.
Keifus - WHEW! I was thinking of you and your beautifully laid out wood floor when I was on my third paint color and thought "Hoo Boy, this is not pretty!" But the really wonderful thing is as I created the paths with the flags and the ribbon I could really imagine it coming to life ... and the judgment fell away. Very satisfying! I hope your flooring projects feel that way for you!
ReplyDeleteTia - Welcome! And yes, it is going to come to life, I can feel it!
