Entryway Design | At Home With P. Allen Smith

[@PAllenSmith]

so glad you're finding my ideas helpful, hope you'll keep tuning in!

[@chrisescobar3979]

With a garden like this, I would live outdoors all the time.

[@damien-ramos]

Majestic spaces--truly inviting! Thanks for sharing this remarkable tour of your garden and the insights on how you choreographed it.

[@joyclarke8942]

A heaven on earth garden, Allen!

[@PAllenSmith]

It sure is! If you're interested, my first book (P. Allen Smith's Garden Home) is all about that house.

[@drpaddi]

You have such a great voice ... so soothing with a wonderful little dash of the South.

[@strappernick9891]

I have a couple of P Allen's books and I've probably rented all of the others. I like his ideas. I know he learned early from the impressive gardens overseas, so he is classically trained in all aspects of this fascinating pastime.

[@DCB14u2do]

I am constantly impressed with your theory, and results! Your love of history , architecture and nature are always evident.

[@donhendershot9705]

Love your ideas and creations. Obviously an "If you need to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it" situation. Creativity however allows one to scale these up or down and still keep the essence within a one on a Spending Plan (budget).

[@P_Belle]

I think the same things with his videos. 😅And I'm an avid gardener with formal beds and tiered hardscape.

[@weiluo7287]

Such a thoughtful and beautiful design

[@mayzi4235]

Hi Allen, you're absolutely correct, this is beautiful and harmonious.. not at all dull.. great ideas, thank you.

[@j.louisv.123]

Such talent, love this guy.

[@theresawoodlake5769]

I really enjoy your gardening and the results

[@angelatereba5421]

I am learning so much from you.. Thank you for all your talents.

[@lyncunningham8255]

Really beautiful and well done. Thanks for showing it off.

[@3pumpkins170]

Love the Camelia entryway! 😍

[@anamiguel1985]

this is an exquisite garden....... so lovely.

[@marycurtis4894]

you are absolutely brilliant. you do such beautiful work

[@LollyJK1]

I love the walkway between garage and home.

[@ehowhome]

Some of our favorite comments are the ones that say the ideas are being used in real life. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@elsiebailey5469]

Fantastic! I love your videos! Love flower gardening and making our yard beautiful! What great ideas you have!

[@carolem9134]

Yes you are so right this is all in your book, it is also a very beautiful book,so much information.🙂

[@soniabanwell6670]

❤️ the porch pillar repeat from the house! I have similar pillars on the front porch of my century home and never thought to repeat in the garden. I’m wondering how often your priming and repainting and what paint product holds up in your winters? My pillars are due to repaint and held up for a good number of years but our big red barn is not holding up at all. Environmental laws have changed the components of latex paint and were looking for another option for exterior finishes. I may sound a little off topic but the architectural elements are a huge part of beautiful gardens.

[@meg3839]

Dream home! The outside is stunning.

[@AS-ns1lg]

This is the most beautiful garden I've ever seen 😍🥰💗

[@ehowhome]

Welcome, welcome! Glad you stumbled on us as well

[@bethbartlett5692]

Love the Columns and Arbors, they are Timeless. And I'm a Frank Lloyd Wright, Modern/MidCentury Fan, but the same idea is doable with a style change. Well done - I can imagine Lighting in the evening is lovely.

[@mjlvnv]

The garden is so pretty!

[@ruapraia]

That was an excellent video, I adore the way the artist speaks to his audience. His home, and gardening ideas are just magnificent. I'm happy I stumbled upon it.

[@kimberlyeteeyan3402]

Simply lovely. Enjoyed having a glimpse of your garden.

[@xyzllii]

Of course, all this costs mega bucks. The longer I garden, the more I come to learn, that money truly helps to make the great garden.

[@marywatkins9438]

Yes, his ideas cost money. But a basic arched trellis/support for a vining plant doesn't have to. Gardening needn't be a bourgeois affair. And it's certainly an affordable form of therapy.

[@kimberly8185]

I know! I feel your pain n frustration! Wish I had unlimited resources to do what I wanted too :(

[@ToniM10]

More.. Imagination nd.. Planning thn money!! Even if u only implement 1 of these designs! i. e.. Anyone can make a vine Arbor..or attach 2 giant hedges 2gether!!.. Time nd Effort... Dnt give up.. Gardening should be FUN!! 😁👍❤

[@Realatmx]

It's not true.. To create good garden you need money.. There are lots of options to create more beautiful garden.. Columns in garden are not compulsory

[@THEMAYQUEEN1]

What a beautiful garden and property!

[@kaywallace6139]

How creative. Great video.

[@emrysariana4397]

omg love all the beautiful entryway

[@annietaylor2898]

I would suggest painting the insteps of the porch stairs white. It was a common style with older homes but still adds visual dimension and punch than monochrome of steps to porch floor.

[@marlim5790]

Beautiful garden.

[@jolyndaj]

Gorgeous !!

[@julianagooptar7549]

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL..

[@dianechoate2906]

Love that cohesiveness you ae talking about. I was wondering about the brick color as you update. The house has more of a brown brick from the 90's. I love red brick. What do you think about mixing those Colors? Thank you...

[@PAllenSmith]

Hello chic-sters! For a chance to win a P. Allen Smith T-shirt, answer the following question by 5pm CST on Friday, July 27. What TWO purposes does Allen say that the side entryway serves? Share you answer here, on Facebook, or Tweet at us! #farmchicfri @pallensmith

[@christinekobzeff]

So fabulous! Great ideas, thank you!

[@Gg-rssystG8]

my God that so beautiful! I want one like that. but a long walk I would have 4- clocks around a day room or the porch they give such a wonderful scent in the evening. I also like orange trees at least two in the front. I'm hydrangeas up against the fenceI simply love the color of that house And the arbors up against the green it is beautiful. I don't really arbor I think lavender

[@Gg-rssystG8]

But you go above and beyond anything I could possibly conjure up in my little pea-brain outstandingly beautiful.as always.

[@jesushurtado6528]

Love it all !

[@zadettamae5206]

Oh, this is beautiful🌸

[@patricianunez4025]

Magnificent!!!

[@eleanorerosanova7538]

ehowhome That's nice, but I'm in the desert. How do you do this in the desert

[@milzijex7340]

Beautiful

[@imissmypandacar]

stunning x

[@famous422]

yeah it lovely , a place to be

[@jazevox]

beautiful yard, love the entry ways in the garden

[@Ayan44]

bet it takes a hell of a lot of effort to keep those plants in good shape!

[@FeliciaFollum]

+Ayan44 Yeah, our new city has soo much more landscaping than we are used to...haha our house will be comparatively low key...

[@theband7737]

what a fine imagination. i bet P Allen Smith really likes roleplay

[@LenyR0SE]

lovely

[@garesonc9672]

Beautiful space. When I look at new house developments it is very sad...I see entire streets of large houses with no foliage around them(not even trees). I also never see people outside attending to landscaping at all. Is it a matter of no time to attend to such things or people just don't care?

[@erinkivett9748]

Our experience has been that HOAs tend to limit how much garden you can have :(

[@IamMayuri]

Amazing

[@harleyarmstrong5385]

nice flowers firt comment

[@learsonite4751]

Do you have any issues with spiders? I always hate walking into huge spider webs

[@FeliciaFollum]

This looks a bit fancier than I had in mind...but lovely nevertheless

[@FromRVtoCrafts]

Don't think very many people could afford anything close to this.

[@FeliciaFollum]

lol true...

[@coocoo2803]

Who is he talking to? Loving the garden tho. :)

[@jeffleighton4385]

Real simple....put house #s out front.

[@wiesbadengera1]

I tell folks to map it .

[@alliehamilton-calhoun162]

This is what I would do if I had money. Not buy jets or yachts or million dollar handbags. I would make wild & beautiful gardens everywhere. I think I spend about as much money on dirt & mulch as most women spend on their hair & nails. Different priorities, I guess.

[@juanlove6139]

Hmmmm...trust fund baby, huh???

[@giennefarcais6834]

I stopped watching this guy's tv show because he was always looking off into the distance talking to ???? instead of looking at the camera - the audience. WTH is up with that? Is it supposed to be artistic? It's just distracting. First you wonder if he has any idea where the cameraman is. It's ridiculous. I came here hoping that was just on the show, but he's doing it here too.

[@ameshamonique]

LOL!!!!! Your comment literally made me spit out my cereal! I was wondering the exact same thing. I'm thinking maybe there are two camera's and he's talking to one, but during the editing process they added footage from the other camera??? Not sure, but the side views are very distracting.

[@giennefarcais6834]

:) I think this might be a "thing" or else there are more bad cameramen out there than there should be. There are two other shows that do the same thing. I can't even watch them anymore. And I've had to tell them why.

[@Jack-oc2xq]

Gienne Farcais it's because there are two or more cameras recording him, it's just weird editing that makes it look like he never looks at the camera, so when he's looking at one camera they use the footage of the other camera, not sure why but it's not his fault

[@juanitaiveyivey]

Show off lol

[@patricianunez4025]

Magnificent!!!
