Planting Grapes, Onions & Cabbage (+ Honeyberry Update)! 🍇🧅🥬 // Garden Answer

[@robcurranphotography]

Anybody else gasp when Laura said she wanted to paint that beautiful wood inside the shed? I love it as it is!

[@staceyallard2692]

No. I am not afraid to paint wood. Ever. The wood in that shed I may be hesitant at first but if it’s not the look I want, I’d paint it in a heartbeat.

[@julievalencia8633]

Yes, it's so beautiful! I love those lights too!

[@ernieallen8821]

Yep! I think the wood is beautiful! I am not completely against painting wood, but I think it’s nice as is. It’s hard to tell from video though. I actually like the outside siding color as well! 😂 I guess I am drawn to natural finishes?! 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@dannac_8888]

Agreed! The warmth of the natural wood as the light hits it is gorgeous and inviting. Why make more "projects" when there are a TONS of other things to do!

[@lindabullock742]

Yes, absolutely…just seal it with varnish or minwax and leave as is…

[@kellyroo3]

Since you’ve asked for opinions, I would go with a different exterior bracket. Something a bit larger in scale, and, with the electrical boxes installed so high, a fixture that extends down a bit would fill in the visual space and would provide a more balanced look. Good luck with the search!

[@melissasullivan1658]

Yep, the height of it was killing me. Lower them a bit and it wouldn’t look nearly so awkward and she’d probably like the lights then.

[@alcg3981]

Exactly what I was thinking!

[@lisalundstrom1591]

I was thinking they seemed a little small

[@eg7647]

Agreed, maybe a fixture that drops the light would help- then you might not have to rewire and cut new holes.

[@LG-gw6xw]

Exactly what I thought.

[@mitzikrawulski7173]

My vote is to return the lights! Go with your gut! Many great options at Home Depot online and with a matte black finish.

[@tinkwyo7080]

No but you do not light them return them. You find the right ones

[@SouthernLatitudesFL]

As somebody who has nautical in Florida, the lights looked Old English lantern and a bit small in scale. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the natural wood color. It gives you a warm glow vs the blue glow from LEDs.

[@ontarioyamon]

I agree, the fixture seemed small in scale. (Many people err in choosing too small of lights for outdoor structures.) Unfortunately in Laura’s case, I’m not sure much bigger would fit between the door trim and window trim.

[@christinaleach5066]

Definitely agree that they are too small.

[@emilyneal7888]

I agree. They are too small for the space. It needs a taller fixture.

[@patriciamorehouse1041]

I just wanted to thank you for NOT putting 'includes paid promotion' into your videos! I really enjoy not having to watch more commercials, which is one of the reasons I started watching KZbin in the first place. Now they have more and more ads, and when I tune in to watch other favorite KZbinrs and find that they are adding commercials to their videos that don't at least have 'skip in 5 seconds', I get annoyed. Thanks again for keeping your videos clear of all the commercialization. Your videos have always been my absolute favorites due to your honesty and clear love of gardening. Keep up the good work!

Agreed!!!!

[@laurapeterson4052]

Yes, the scale is off; need something a bit bigger.

[@DonnaDavisArt]

I think the scale would work IF they get a cool metal antique look hook and have it mounted so the light LOOKS like it's hanging (that's what that loop at the top is supposed to represent haha) and it'd be cute, then the scale would look right, as they are carriage lights I think.

[@LULC0759]

We own a lighting showroom & the scale is definitely off. Needs to be longer….hanging down….because the electrical box is too high.

[@saladabrasileira]

Laura must go shopping with mom to get some beautiful lights 🥰

Laura, I think you are being to picky about your lights really natuactila I don't think so sorry you are being like this .

I thought the lights looked fine but this is the right answer

[@bettyboop1524]

Return because if you don't and put them up temporarily it will drive you crazy. I know it would be me. When I was choosing drawer and cabinets pulls it took me six months to find "just the right" items, once found I was thrilled. Sometimes it's all about the hunt. Good luck.

In the words of William Morris: “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful”. For me, if it doesn’t suit the overall aesthetic I am going for, it does not stay. That all said, I feel an antique trip coming, and I am here for it!

[@kimmiller4057]

Yes, yes. And YES!!!

[@l.m.4014]

That would be great....but, Chances of her getting 2 matching antique outdoor - perfect - lights are slim. 😕 Although it is high-time for another shopping trip!

[@heleneschledermann8920]

Keep the natural wood in the shed:) Its reeally cosy and pretty :)

[@carolcowser1461]

I’m so glad you put the wood on the walls of the shed. We have that on the walls and the ceiling of two of our porches and we we instruct the builder to just apply a clear finish to seal the wood and that they would age beautifully. And do you know, he was right! Our guests always comment that the wood looks so inviting. Don’t paint. It’s a cut flower shed 😄

[@vbee3571]

I totally agree with this. It would be a crying shame to paint that tongue and groove!!

[@julietataryn2130]

I love Aarons reaction. In my opinion they look like carriage lights and that they fit the shed nicely. I so enjoy your videos!

[@lgrillo]

Okay, I had this on while I was doing my makeup, and when Laura started in about “old timey diving suit” and Aaron was like, “That doesn’t make ANY sense” I totally messed up my lipstick because I busted out laughing.

[@cadre500]

Love the natural wood inside the flower shed.

[@kimfox9444]

My thoughts on the lights for the garden shed...I would've placed the light boxes down another 6-12". They line up too much with the tops of the door and windows. Perhaps a taller light fixture would look more proportional if it hung down further. I do love the shed❤️

[@sherryhudson9075]

Yes....you know the back socket cover that is round, and then the lantern extends out and hangs down

[@debrascott8775]

Agree. Dislike. Too small and too high.

[@SouthernLatitudesFL]

I felt they were very high too.

[@LB-vl3qn]

Agreed. And, she's right about the nautical look. As soon as she took it out of the box, I thought 'lighthouse.' Every time I look at it, I half expect it to rotate in warning to ships - Land ho! Don't come too close! ~ Lisa

[@lorihanby6733]

In 1961 my dad put tongue and groove knotty pine in the family ranch cabin much like what is in your shed. To keep it from turning dark over time he mixed a little white oil paint with linseed oil and brushed it all over the wood. It allowed the beauty of the wood grain to show and protected it very well. In 2019 when the cabin was torn down I asked my aunt to please save some of the tongue and groove wood for me to make picture frames out of. The wood has not yellowed or darkened at all and looks just as nice as it did when he first put it up. Over 60 years with only that first application!

We have a Tent type vehicle carport in the backyard that has the canvas off and a peak that arches in the top middle. It is the framework for our grape arbor. It is covered with leafy vines in the summer and provides a shaded area with grapes hanging down on the inside as they grow in the fall. It is big enough for a long table down the middle and room for chairs. Every year in the fall these wine grapes are noticed by the birds as it gets closer to when they are ripe. The day they are ripe it can be totally stripped of berries by the birds! I consider it a gift to them!

The wood siding on the garden shed works for the cottage look, the beach house look, the farm-house look, etc. My little home has siding and with other accents looks like a beach bungalow. YOUR garden shed with the right accents will look exactly how you want it to look (but only after much interaction between you and Aaron. LOL. The lights in question would look good on the porch of my beach cottage if they were in white...but my budget is half of yours. I love how you show all the tools, materials, products you'll be using on each project.

Good morning!! I'm totally with you on the nautical/old-school diving equipment/lighthouse vibe of the lights. Although I personally think they look lovely. But then I agree with Aaron too, lots of UK seaside cottages have that siding detail here. Totally up to you though!! Carriage lights are so beautiful... Btw, we actually pronounce Suffolk without the 'l' so 'Su-fok' haha so sorry, don't mean to be rude 🤣🤣 same with Norfolk too. I'm actually from Suffolk, but totally understand if that feels weird to say in your lovely American accents. Anyway, it's so exciting seeing it all come to life again for the season! ❤️❤️❤️

I live in Suffolk county Long Island USA. It’s pronounced without an l here too. I have to agree it’s stupid.

You’re so brave for asking for input 😉 You do you! We all love whatever you decide!

Hi Laura! Thank you for another great video. One thing I've discovered is that whatever you think of when you look at something, is what you will think/see every single time you look at it. So while the light fixtures were really nice,I'm glad your returning them for ones you absolutely love. Can't wait to see your gardens when everything is up and blooming. Will be an amazing sight. 😊

Hiya, the lights look great when held up and go really nicely with the cut flower shed but I do agree as soon as you said old diving suit I saw it too. I still think they're very nice but they are just going to bug you so I would suggest sending them back and getting something you love and can live with! Good luck! X ps - if you can manage the cost of the ones you love then go for it! Why the heck not?! 😻
