Cottage Garden Design Masterclass - Structure

[@Cocogatte24]

The video was amazing. I used your planting bed structure in my own garden. People are blown away when they come into my backyard. Can't wait for your next video.

[@suburbanhomestead]

I’m honored that you were inspired by it. Did you find it easy enough to assemble?

[@acebilbo]

Perfect time of year. Perfect time for me. This is so very helpful!! Thanks a million times over!!

[@laurenwilliams2138]

I want to replicate the same look. Where did you buy the pieces for the structure?

[@suburbanhomestead]

@@laurenwilliams2138 I custom built everything with pressure treated wood. The finial I turned in my hobby lathe, butyl’s can buy similar ones intended for deck posts

[@Cocogatte24]

@@laurenwilliams2138 Hey Lauren, we built ours with pressure treated 2 x 4' x 24" s in the corners set into the ground,. rough pine boards make the 4' x 4' base. Skinny strips of pine nailed together into an "L" for the vertical uprights. Horizontal strips tie the uprights together with corner braces. Our tops are semi-curved pine arches. We made a template and cut the four pieces to match with a jigsaw. They're joined together into a short 4 x 4 block. We cut 3/4" dados into each side of the block and camfered the corners on a table saw. We nailed little filler blocks into the dados to "trap" the semi-curve arches as a mortise. We put a square cap block on top of the 4 x 4 and finished it off with a pressure treated finial we ordered from Home Depot. We stained the wood with a mix of roofing tar and paint thinner. You could build out of cedar if you'd rather, or all pressure treated. If you plan on painting, it's best not to use pressure treated lumber.

The quality of this video is unmatched by anything else on youtube!! I hope, somehow, that your talent gets the financial recognition that it deserves. It would do us all well if you had the time and resources to create freely.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks Denise for recognizing that. This response is what I truly find valuable. In some respects I'm swimming against the current for the algorithm, but my hope is that genuine human interest, like yours, shines through!

[@erinmclaughlin6861]

I 48th that. Absolutely!

[@lourdesdoty7765]

This was a wonderful video! And reminded me of exactly what my goals are here for me! Making natural structures out of the willows and grapevines I have here already! Love all of your videos and appreciate all the extra work you put into them to make them spectacular!!!

[@lisaritter2306]

So beautifully said!

[@Mindy-s-channel]

Exactly! So beautiful to watch.

[@mollyowens4174]

“Sense of place” is a new term for me. I absolutely love this concept and crave the vibe, since I’ve moved countless times in my life.

[@monicacruz4407]

Also called the ‘genius loci’ Latin for spirit of the place. Some places already have it as a result of good design, or sometimes it’s strong in temples or ancient sites. But if you have a blank slate, you can create it out of thin air by channeling your art. I’ve just discovered Siloe, he has an absolute talent for it 🤩

[@TayTazer1]

Masterclass definitely belongs in this title, holy cow. I learned more from this than 90% of paid-for design classes I've attended.

[@suburbanhomestead]

That is quite a compliment! Thank you!

[@georgewhitehouse8630]

❤how many gardens do you have?

[@livanix4211]

you /feel/ like a father that we needed as a kid, i just feel safe

[@TheWeedyGarden]

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks David. I would rather have more talented on-screen personalities while I do the behind the scenes, but alas, gotta use what I have. Take care mate!

[@andrewsartduchy7721]

The way you were able to repurpose the concrete landscaping into that winding path was such an improvement, really nice to see someone make the most out of an unfortunate situation. So cool to see someone using the home as a template to showcase and hone their many talents. Brava! And the 3D work is just wow! Whatever software you’re using it’s really impressive.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks Andrew! I like the fact it was a free makeover as well. Glad you liked the 3d graphics.

[@jeremy-dore]

@@suburbanhomestead What software did you use for your 3d graphics? I love the way it combines a hand-drawn effect with moving through space. It must have taken so long!

[@dyls7777]

yes such a fantastic video! we would love to know the animation software- did you use revit and animate using a rendering software? beautiful styling as well, thank you for sharing

[@mailinglist2451]

I want to live here.

[@alycewarr5332]

I’ve been searching for years to find a garden and gardener to help me with Information and ideas specifically for a cottage garden. I bought my small cottage in the valley near mountains 6 years ago and then got sick. I finally began working in earnest last summer and have a three year plan. I was searching the UK for help, but now I’ve found you! I hope it’s not too late in my life to do this as I’m a newly retired single woman. Wish me luck, garden on all 💜

[@mayb.wright509]

You go, retired single woman. It's never too late to start. Blessings from across the pond.

[@georgewhitehouse8630]

Good luck 🍀

[@JNeil1975]

I turned my bland little apartment into a bohemian Parisian flat that is filled with artwork, color, collections, etc. An artist from the 1920's would feel right at home there. Now...it's time to transform my flower bed!

[@elisabethvismans]

I’m doing the same as you. I’m an artist and my house is Parisian inspired. I lived in Paris, now in the US and designing an open spot between a wooded area and the house. I love these videos. The presentation, the ideas and the craftsmanship.

[@summerrayneoakes]

Absolutely love what you did here Siloe. Masterful with your description, vision, and animation.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you Summer. Glad to see you stop by. Hopefully I can execute more of these idealized plans without too much groundhog interference.

[@iris.inspired]

Your garden style is exquisite, your communication clear & welcoming, your teaching is deeply inspiring! I was shocked to hear you say you had moved but what gorgeousness you have created at this new home. Stunning!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you so much Iris for the kind words.

[@hanselpollack4075]

I was so transported into my own “dreamland” by this video. My brothers are artists, and everything they touch , even a chair with coffee, and books, is soul touching. Like them, you are both an artist, and a craftsman, “par excellance”. I don’t hope to garner enough talent, or vision to match your gardens, but the fact that they seem to just erupt out of God-given small spaces and corners is inspiring….Man loving, and cooperating with Creation is the most wonderful part of life!❤️

[@suburbanhomestead]

We can all exercise creativity and build a more beautiful world. Take care.

[@francesjones9644]

You said “thank you so much for watching this video”. I say “thank you so much for making this video”. I have the regular lawn with planting around the perimeter, but the cottage I live in is 350 years old. I don’t like my garden in its current form but have not known really how to change it. My garden means so much to me (I have been gardening for 50 years) and this is the first time I have wanted to follow somebody else’s ideas. My very grateful thanks to you from an old thatched cottage in England.

[@livingvintage1441]

I am an artist and gardener. I love all of your videos for sure. I live in a mobile home park and have created quite the oasis here. Everyone loves it! I am able to thin out some of my plants and share with others which I love doing. I love what you have done with your homes and I get so many ideas from you. Thanks you for sharing your ideas and experience :)

[@mattmindolovich7457]

This is the video I have been waiting for! I'm still a novice gardener, and designing for aesthetic is where I struggle the most. I will definitely be applying these principles in future garden projects. I can't wait for the next video! Also, every time you have shots of the inside of your house, I am in awe. You could have stand-alone house renovation/interior design episodes and I would totally watch them.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks Matt. I hope it was useful. I may do a house tour after the height of the growing season.

[@tinachristensen4008]

I loved the design of your raised beds! Very creative! I love the idea of your curved path. It looks amazing! Are you in an area with frost /thaw heaves? I would be curious how your path holds up through winter weather. It looks like the way I want my side yard path to become. I've yet to construct my path.

[@miriammoriarty8588]

I second the request for a house tour :)

[@gwenkilby]

I could watch this style of video every day. Really appreciate the teachings you're sharing with us, plants and trees are already fascinating to me but to add all the artistic elements it just takes the beauty to the next level. Brilliant.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you so much for that feedback. It helps a lot.

[@paulplantu]

This video was awesome! The info was A-1 and the design ideas and mini tutorials are great. This type of vid seems like a less arduous task than the documentaries and maintains the quality while allowing you to probably upload more. I know a lot of time goes into your content and we appreciate it!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Glad you enjoyed it my friend. Yes it was less research work and a bit less graphics. I was mostly taping from my experience. I tend to overcomplicate things sometimes. Glad you appreciate the effort!

[@marlowarlo3558]

Hi! I'm actually a concept artist who's been working the past 10 weeks on my final year project and despite it being about designing a real life garden this is by far one of the best references I've had for HOW to design a garden space and how to keep things rustic and pleasant, thank you so much for this!

[@kirani111]

Good luck on your project and portfolio:)

[@yougrowgail]

I absolutely love the way the garden beds appear to be cutting into the stone wall or vise versa. This idea would never naturally come to my mind. I adore the creativity of you brain!!

[@hannekevankeulen494]

I went to Interior Design school just so I could learn to plan and organize my garden at this level. You are inspiring!

[@pilgrimbruce6475]

Thank you so much for this! Many garden videos focus just on the gardening, while many landscaping videos treat plants like furniture that can just be thrown in wherever. I am really looking forward to your entire series.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Your comment perfectly describes my thoughts! Hope you like what is to come.

[@TheDailyConnoisseur]

Thank you for this series. I have dreams to do this one day and am bookmarking your videos! ~ Jennifer

Happy to hear you can use it as reference. That makes the effort worth while.

[@pascalxus]

yup, there's a lot of replay value in these videos

[@jessicachavez8334]

I found myself feeling discouraged about my ability to one day have a homestead. I’m very inexperienced but I love the idea of having a garden that I live off of. This idea of a suburban homestead is right up my alley and everything that I hope to have one day. Thank you so much for your channel and for the attention to detail that you put in your videos. I have shared this video with at least five people who would also take interest in some thing like this. I feel inspired and like my dreams can one day become a reality. As an artist myself, I think it’s really important as well that you talked about the elements of design. So many people don’t realize how important that is to have a beautiful space. Thank you again and I wish you all the best.

What a surprise for KZbin to present your channel to us! We drive by your home weekly on our way to 340. I've seen you working outside and loved the design on the tops of your raised beds. Next time we pass by and you're outside, we'll be sure to honk and wave!

[@nickyperryman2683]

I love the bird cage style raised beds. It’s so important to think about aesthetics as well as the practical productive functions of the garden. I love the interior of your house too! So inspiring!

[@KarolinoPetrolino]

As a motion graphics/ 3D artist I really appreciate the time you take for visualizing your garden concept and editing the video, it looks really thought out! Things like that take up quite some time which is often overlooked so great job!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you for noticing. You understand the countless hours to pull this off.

[@gypsyvanneraddict]

Siloé! This style - this genre is a perfect hybrid of your documentarian impulses while keeping with the whimsical aspects of your design. I love the new format I think it truly showcases so much in bite-size lengths.

[@suburbanhomestead]

I tried to keep it contained. And I think this length is probably more useful for the most amount of viewers.

[@gypsyvanneraddict]

@@suburbanhomestead and I love the longer docs as well- they are like little film jewels! Please do a house tour - if comfortable with the idea- I see so much beauty in your new house! Would love to see the before and after. My husband is a modernist while I love all things vintage, regency, Belle Epoch and ethnic. And I like to mix modern in with it all. A kind of hint of steam punk too. Please check out Benedetta Bonichi’s art. I think you’ll love her half myth/ Half animal art. Anthropomorphic chic is what I call it and it looks great with antiques! I framed a print of her work above my spinet piano- just magical. Since you’re and artist I’m sure you have gorgeous originals throughout your home. Many blessings!

[@leannereinhold966]

I’m so glad I discovered your videos! I’m recovering from Covid and I was feeling really depressed and uninspired.

Thank you for your beautiful aesthetic sensibility and great practical advice. I love that your ways are frugal, but the quality you achieve is exceptional. Thank you!

[@poedah3875]

I’m so happy I found your video. It giving me so much courage not to giving up for the first few years of my gardening journey. I am a new gardener and over the years I spent a lot of money from plants from the nursery and deer will eat it or they don’t make it. It’s so sad because I just bought my new house and I am on the budget. Your video teach me that I can still have a beautiful cottage garden without have to spend a lot of money to buy plants from the nursery. I’d like to thanks you for sharing and happy new year.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Yes, taking it slow and understanding your land is key. I only deal mostly with groundhogs, so I can only imagine how destructive heavy deer pressure can be. I hope some of the ideas can help you get to a better garden. You might have to install a fence or only use plants that are poisonous to deer, which is difficult.

[@jaebee9308]

Don't give up! All of that time failing is so valuable as a teacher. Success will come and it will be very satisfying!

[@kristina_lynn]

This is incredible. Your overview of design elements really got me thinking. I have a lot of curved beds I'm making and pathways, but really no focal point nor structure to bring them together.

[@suburbanhomestead]

That is what you need. Something that stands out but still talks to the geometry of everything else. That is the path to harmonious design.

[@acrosby74]

I am also an artist/gardener. I appreciate the architectural elements of your videos. I will be adapting both your bed topper design and your vine trellis in my garden. I have a productive permaculture garden that helps to feed me and my family of 6. I also love the historical background and the overall design elements that I see in your home decor, garden, and even your fashion sense. It's almost like hearing gardening advice from a modern-day Mark Twain. Thank you for posting your videos. They make me smile.

[@meredithskeels2661]

I’m so happy to have stumble upon your channel. I really enjoyed the content of this video. I loved hearing your discussion of garden design and how you applied these principles into your own garden. And then I took a minute to realize how high quality the video and editing is too! I’m looking forward to watching more. Thank you!

[@lsalinas2573]

Love, love, love what you have done to your gardens. Makes me want to go out and plant/design and enjoy my own. Thank you!

[@mosaichearthome8947]

Really, really loved this! Enjoyed how you incorporated the artistic elements of design! I haven't seen anyone else do that, but it was very practical. Sometimes I get overwhelmed by a blank canvas. I think I will refer to your video over & over again for my new garden plan!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Glad to hear that.

[@pinkbirock343]

this man is magical, i hope the people around him got good memories from seeing all those beautiful flowers!

[@oldmanfigs]

Just the best video about English cottage gardens I have found!

[@janinecobb]

Great video! After years of renting and tending other peoples gardens I’ve finally bought my own house and am planning my own garden. I’m sure your videos will be very helpful, thank you!

[@bespe5189]

What a great video, thank you. I've spent many hours watching different gardening content here on KZbin, but this is exactly what I was craving. A beautiful mix of gardening and art theory, all while actually showing it all in practice.

[@alisonedwards1637]

The quality of this video is incredible. I like how you've combined the style of last year's documentaries with the style of your previous garden videos. I definitely want to see more of these, I think you're on to something special here (and the length was perfect).

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you so much for the feedback. Part 2 will be realeased tomorrow.

I've been trying to create a cottage garden in my own home and stumbled upon your channel. Anyone who builds such amazing enclosed beds, cares for the earth by recycling old concrete and uses the phrase "Marauding groundhog" must be a kindred sprit. Thanks for the laugh! I can't wait to view your other videos.

[@michaelaneudorf2662]

Officially obsessed! This has been my dream for years and what a great guide and inspiration! So well made and beautiful!

[@IGmuse]

Wow, thank you for putting together such a thorough and informative video. This was the first time I’d ever subscribed to a channel after watching just one video and I can’t wait to watch the rest and see your beautiful garden in full bloom.

[@samanthagaffney6138]

LOVED this style of video, I can only imagine the work it took to make it! Also learned a lot from it, & can't wait for the rest of this series!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks. It takes a while to capture all the footage and wait for progression to stich up a video. Glad you liked it.

[@SharaVitone]

I appreciate the way you interact artistry with gardening to make an interesting and cohesive design. I love the space you are making for your flowers and vegetables!

[@dutchgram3799]

I appreciate your style of creating a garden. I want to work with the space, let it breath and live with it so I can grow with it. It might sound corny but it has so much personality and gives so much to the viewer.

[@lisabarnetson1362]

This is wonderful! I have seen an eclectic garden shed made strictly of recycled wooden doors. It was so beautiful.

[@ianoliverbailey6545]

This is a stunningly beautiful garden, worked out with careful thought and attention to detail, and brought to life by the talented hand of an artist. I love the way you have broken everything down into 'doable' chunks, and the way you explain the elements which make for successful design. This is so inspiring. Thanks so much: I will be sure to continue following you from here in France.

[@Rinnytintin25]

Absolutely stunning! This video is incredibly high quality. Thanks so much for the inspiration! Keep up the good work!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks Mariah

[@holycrocs3670]

this wasn't just a video, it was a warm hug

[@sussanroads42039]

This guy needs more subscribers. His videos are amazing! The production quality is incredible.

[@sunburnfm]

I miss having a train near me. Keep up the great work. My friend and I watched your videos every time they came out over dinner and we loved them. He died last February and since then I have not been back to the garden. Now that I can do it again, watching your videos gives me inspiration. Your aesthetic is so beautiful. BTW, the animations are new, right? They're amazing and add a new and interesting dimension.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Wow, your comment made me reflect deeply about how precious each moment edited into the videos can be and how much they can contribute to lives of those who watch them. I can only hope to make them worthwhile to become fond memories of happiness. Thank you so much for sharing. And yes the animations are new.

[@joannerobinson4037]

I just found your channel today and I feel like I've stumbled upon a treasure trove of information! I'm from the UK but live in Florida and I spend many, many hours trying to create a cottage garden similar to what I'd find at home. Your cottage garden is beautiful! I'm especially impressed with the obelisks you created and might just try constructing my own! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@katrinaharris3258]

I live in Florida too and am trying to recreate a cottage garden!

[@davidreed4046]

One of the best gardening videos I've seen. I can see why everybody loves this. The choice of "slides" to demonstrate elements of garden design was better than anything I've seen on any major production garden show and it didn't always focus on gardens but places and styles. This was definitely the best way to relay these concepts. The "final" cottage garden was a little too casual for my taste but of course this is just a matter one's own personal style.

[@prinsasslia]

This is the EXACT content I need in my life

[@TheGerogero]

Your home is a friggin' beauty overdose. Kudos sir.

[@lpssuperlove201]

amazing! it's really beautiful to see someone care this much about the beauty of their home in a way that is so personal and fulfilling! I'm so used to seeing people simply use their home as a status symbol, but this video really gets to a more wholesome beautiful way of caring about your garden. Gorgeous!!! Not only gardening talents but the ability to share it through an also beautifully shot and edited video!! amazing amazing, I live in an old schoolhouse/shed in my parents back yard and this has given me so many ideas! I don't know if I'll ever be a home owner but you gave me so many ideas for my little garden thank yoU!

[@traceye.6428]

Sounds like you have the perfect little home to surround with a cottage garden.
