How To Lay A Brick Border and Flagstone Path

[@enmg1544]

I could have watched an hour of this. It is really looking wonderful. All of the hard scape and prep will be well worth it once you start planting. Your team is great. They seem to know just what you like and put care in to it.

[@conniemorgan8402]

Please thank the guys for the demonstration.. I’m learning a lot on your transformation !! They are such professionals and it shows ❤️❤️

[@lauratonelli7875]

Wow! These gentlemen are doing a fantastic job! The brick looks amazing! Looking forward to the next video!

[@sydneykasmar]

The yard is really moving along. Love seeing that the Boxwood has arrived and the brick works really adds a beautiful elegance to the walkway.

[@penelopehammerton2907]

Love the colour and finish of the new path and the brick edge just finishes it off. Good colour contrast between the two. The quality of the men's work is exceptional to get the stone the brick and the gravel in a pleasing arrangement takes talent 👏

[@christinedekay1297]

Love the brick accents.

[@SandraGrimes-rt9we]

I look forward to each update on your new home and landscaping. The bricks along the walkway are perfect, it is like layer upon layer of design. I also love the cottage pathway to the west side of your home. Boy can I really see your vision and only expect it to look more and more beautiful with each week. How can you even sleep at night with all the excitement :) Enjoy your lovely garden .

[@rosemariemello6675]

I must say...those gentlemen are gems , such beautiful work and determination to get it done precisely to design . ❤ Thanks for sharing

[@sandykoenig1666]

How fun to see things taking shape. I love what I see so far. You are a great designer.

[@Sables123]

These guys are definitely pros. Brick laying is an art and talent and is almost extinct. Everything is really coming together beautifully!

[@LucyPoland]

I’d give my right arm to have my neighbors’ yards look like this. I have a feeling this will be contagious throughout your neighborhood! ❤️❤️❤️

[@aussiegirl62113]

Brick throw rugs is the best explanation I've ever heard 😂 I have brick, stone and wood throw rugs 😁❤️ Love the flowerbox colour will be a lovely focus

[@barbarasidel9012]

Oh boy it’s beginning to look like a Linda garden. It’s going to be beautiful! If I’m this excited Linda, you must be through the roof excited!! 😂

[@NancyDore-cq3pe]

Linda, it is all looking so wonderful. Could hardly wait all day for this update. Wish you did one every day. I also want to say how much I appreciate your kindness to to many people that have been working on your house. You know all of their names and are so kind and appreciative to all of them. The way someone treats others says a lot about a person. You are a very good person. Wish more of our country was kind to others ❤

[@dianegentry3255]

Porch is so pretty! I’m seeing a lot of green! Very exciting! Looking terrific!!

[@marybeth4002]

This is the first time I now see your vision taking shape. It's all coming together so beautifully. I don't know if the bench on the front porch was there in earlier videos, or not - but it really looks nice there now and the design blends well with the cottage.

[@carolfisch9750]

Oh, the brick lined walkway and porch are looking fabulous. NO MORE CRACKS OR RED! Love your porch setting so far with small bench and planters. Already makes the area look so homey and classy…the Linda trademarks.

[@anitahadley2871]

The brick really frames the walkway just perfectly. I love the shade of the concrete too. It really did soften in. Can’t wait to see the window box in place!

[@Spondennysgarden7b]

I can see the vision, Linda. I'm so excited for you 🎉❤ I can't get enough 😩 I want to see more!!!!❤

[@camilla6110]

I’m amazed at how much bigger the yard looks with all the plantings going in! The scale is perfect, the pots on the porch are perfect, the brickwork and pavers are perfect, the window box will be perfect! What a fantastic group of artisans you have doing the work. They are outstanding!! 💜👍

[@michelejohnson6146]

It does look bigger, doesn’t it? Effective planning and design.

[@valindakimmel4552]

My husband and I came to town this weekend. We found your new Hill Cottage Friday afternoon. It was so fun to see you and a bunch of folks working hard to get your new yard in shape!

[@AlicePRabbits]

Such hardworking men!! They’re doing a great job!

[@vjohnston6453]

You have some great workers. Love the brick.

[@lindaosborne1539]

The brick border is absolutely gorgeous!! Well done, Javier!

[@judyking9552]

o it is looking beautiful !!!!!!❤

[@janetgould6612]

Linda, your vision is all coming together beautifully. Thank you for taking us along on your journey from the beginning.

[@brendapayge4775]

Everything is looking good and coming together Linda. Workers are doing a very good job.

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

The accents of brick are a fabulous touch. I need to see if your topiary’s can grow in my 7a zone. Your vision is inspiring! 🌷🏡🌷

[@interesante80]

You got your boxwoods!! I love the brick accent to the sidewalk. And, didn't say this in previous video, but really love how you did that rounded edge on the sidewalk up to your steps. Waiting all day for this video!!

[@colleenhelligso3212]

Yes, the rounded edge is quite nice

[@cindybird3660]

I so look forward to each new thing that is being finished in your landscape. It's been very exciting and inspiring too! I love it all!

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

That is a really skilled crew of landscapers. Several years ago, I had a large circular loose laid stone wall built around a tree that was on a slope. The back of the wall is about ground level and the front is about 5 feet tall. The guys did the whole thing with just a shovel and a string and it’s PERFECT.

[@cindygibbons4727]

Would love to see a picture of that. 😊

[@marykennedy3351]

New subscriber here, and I must say I've finally found exactly what I want. I've been wrapping my brain for over a year on what to do and how to do it with my cottage garden makeover and my my my here it is. 😂 I've been binge watching you, and the light bulb came on, and I can't get enough. You're so much like myself. I can't even get over it😊. You're so peticular and know what you want and how you want it. I love it!❤ Everything is magnificent, and that door😮. I love the gold plate on the door idea, and I could see a bit of something you may have in store for the circular window. I'm so excited to see how this all turns out. It's coming along beautifully.😊 Thank you for sharing.❤

[@laruetoombs678]

I can now see what your cottage will look like soon. So adorable.

[@aksileb]

I can’t wait to see the before and after pictures. It already looks so good. 😊👍🏻

[@maree8470]

Everything looks great! Also love watching the whole neighbourhood 'greening up' as spring progresses....☀😎😄

[@jeannebrinkman8889]

Very magical looking. The Cottage on the Hill is beginning to show her glory!!❤

[@ingelathune-boyle]

It's taking shape! It will be beautiful.

[@sandidueckman1491]

Everything is really starting to take shape. It's going to be stunning! ❤

[@gracemccartin194]

Thank you for showing us the “ before and after” of your front yard. Your design skills are so good and it helps many of us with great ideas. I love the mixture of materials: stone, brick, concrete,etc. looks so nice!! 🥰. Grace

[@TeriRich-py3se]

I concur, Grace.

[@lindareinhardt1964]

Well Linda, once again you have transformed a blank canvas to a beautiful outdoor space. Your creativity and vision are truly artistic and inspiring. The craftsmen (way too talented to call these fellas workmen) are incredible! So hard to find people who understand your vision, and then can execute it. Congrats... can't wait to see it evolve as the plantings go in, windowbox gets installed, and the Linda-magic happens!

[@juneramirez8580]

Linda you are so lucky that you have such wonderful people working for you! They are so hard to find these days!!! Your Front yard is coming along so nicely!!!! What a joy!!!!

[@libbymiller5240]

Oh my goodness, Linda, the brick border is BEAUTIFUL! It really compliments the walk. I LOVE the way this is all coming together! It is absolutely GORGEOUS!! The Red Buds add such a lovely soft and airy bit of color. What skill these men, that are putting your brick border and stepping stones in, have! I am just amazed at how much you have gotten done and how STUNNING it all looks! Have a lovely Easter, dear friend! Sending much love and blessings.

[@deniseb2571]

The brick edging makes all the difference with the walkway. It's looking amazing! 🌱

[@bonniejoberg388]

It's looking fabulous! I love the bricks, cant wait to see the window box planter in place. 😍

[@brookelayne309]

Oh my! Looks fabulous! I think we see your vision- and it’s beautiful!!

[@0JReynolds]

Oh my goodness, everything looks so beautiful. I’m so happy for you. I truly hope it will be your dream cottage ~ Janet 😘

[@yasminclarke6765]

It’s literally so beautiful! All of the green makes me so happy. I can imagine how happy it makes you. 😊

[@mariemcgrath8681]

The porch & path look magnificent., Love it. I can see the GREY window box.....wonderful.

[@colleenhelligso3212]

Oh my goodness! How nice it all looks. This is incredibly exciting. Great job everyone!

[@rebeccafrancis8227]

Thank you for the update. Wow things are moving along fast as you said it would!!

[@dorothyevans1493]

It all looks badass Linda. Just like you and Stewart. 😊

Your progress is SO interesting to watch! Thank you so much for sharing.

[@gardenfairy9792]

Everything is coming together nicely. I'm so excited for you Linda!

[@jenniferkessener1111]

Wow, just adding that brick border makes such a diffsrence! Of cours each plant added is amazing.

[@kellybrooke9068]

Oh Linda this is going to be amazing! Very pretty!!!

[@cathymacmillan4645]

This takes watching your channel (which I already love) to a whole new level. Thank you

[@darlenencambria]

It’s all coming together and looks amazing.

[@susanschuck8124]

Just beautifully coming together. Such hard working talented men! What blessings to have them for your designs! Thank you!

[@margaretkuzminsky7876]

I'm beginning to see the vision. Brilliant design!

[@edithp.7213]

Things are really coming together beautifully. I’m a little surprised that they sent you these tiny boxwoods though. What’s up Southern Living!? Linda and I are getting too old to wait for those babies to grow up enough to hide those chairs 😂🤣. I came home with a load of Southern Living plants today and will have fun planting them tomorrow 🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴. Happy gardening everyone! 🌺🌼

[@janereel1903]

I'm with you, I'm too old to wait over seasons! ❤On another channel, a gardener who is also a Southern Living associate like Linda, said that the Better Boxwoods are in short supply because they're just now releasing them. He said it's hard to get bigger plants and for many people they won't find them in garden centers much. I thought I also heard Linda comment about the supply also. Because they're blight resistant every one wants them. But in ground they probably grow fast.

[@irenetovar7756]

I love how it's coming along.

[@ileneshulan1849]

I could have watched an hour of this. Was disappointed that it was over. It is lovely how it is coming together. Those gentlemen are so meticulous in the job they r doing. You are so lucky to have that great team!

[@aprilmogensen]

I appreciate how the video shows how the brick work is done ... makes me want to try this sometime. I love seeing each video how your yard is taking shape & oh so lovely. I love your taste & ideas!

It’s all looking great, I can see the beauty already

[@allisonehresmangrussenmeye8082]

starting to look so pretty

[@77sun222]

Hi The brick edging is a game changer. People don't realise that 35 years making and developing a garden made you the very popular person you are today. It's impossible to explain,other than time, how your former garden (and many of us who understand living in a house many years) evolved into such a beautiful,serene attractant and haven. So i know what you mean by exhaustion💞💕🍀

[@gardengal26]

Love how the bit of staging on the porch looks! The bench and potted boxwoods are a great focal point.💗

[@kathrynmettelka7216]

Love the brick pavers along the sidewalk! The gray stones look great too.

[@carlaephotography7096]

Looking good!! You’re crew is doing an awesome job. And do let them dig for you…😊! Life changes. I do a lot of digging, but also have someone help me with the heavy stuff these days. On the screening under the flagstone…I have been doing research for what to put around my foundation perimeter, as right now there is a lot of ill placed unleveled flagstone. When you turn one over there are lots of insects. I learned to help not only with those bugs, but for moisture control that they should all have crushed/screened gravel under them. So glad to see your guys doing that! Thanks for sharing your project with us!

[@laurasamaniego5274]

Your vision is coming to life! Love it

[@audreykennard6603]

It is REALLY starting to come together!!!! I am loving this transformation ❤️ and I thank you for sharing all these steps along the way.

It is so well thought out...but of course since it is yours!! Just beautiful!!

Hi Linda! Wow are things looking great!! I love it!! How lucky are you to find great professionals to work with!! Kayla and her crew are just awesome!! You have done a wonderful designing the landscape! How exciting! Have a great day! Hugs! :)

So enjoying the transformation of your home. I look forward to each addition of plants and stone! Beautiful!

[@JL-hw5hu]

Hey Linda everything is coming together nicely. I love the roof it's unique and gorgeous. For some reason I thought the boxwoods would be larger. I like how you pivot if things don't work out as designed. I wish to remove all of the grass in my front yard its the size of yours & same design as well with walkway to the front door. I'm tired of maintaining all that grass more work than our beloved plants 😉. Please enjoy your home. Thanks for sharing.

[@sandyheaverin7362]

Oh Linda Linda!! It’s lovely. I wish I had the money and my husband would agree to do my yard.

[@keoweedesigner5995]

Wow! It is very exciting to watch this new garden evolve so quickly ❤ Also encouraging as I soon will be leaving my garden of 28 years and find it a challenge to not secumb to despair😢 Kudos to you Linda for showing us how to depart our homes and gardens with grace, wisdom and fortitude 🙃

[@cathynefzger8287]

Kayla's crew do such a fantastic job, they are perfectionist and extremely skilled I love their work. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into the recent progress of the front yard, that brick really makes the sidewalk pop. Happy too that I don't have to wait until Sunday to see what's happening in Oklahoma. And look at those Redbuds, can't wait until they are in full bloom! To get a little more of LV I listened to Business Victories and enjoyed it so much.

[@cindygibbons4727]

So did I!😊
