    Our driveway - Before and after pics

    We're 80% through. Here are some before and after pics.. Lets me know what you guys think...

    Oh, it costed us $5,000 for the whole project.


    The color of the cement areas are all different!


    The grass goes up to the foot of the house


    The driveway was all cracked and bumpy.

    The work involved clearing all the grasses, removing the old cement, and of course, putting in the new cement!









    Now we have a huge area right in front of our door.. We & the 3Ms absolutely love our new front area..



    I put cement on this area, too. Don't you love the way I designed the 5 diamond planters!!! We'll be planting tree roses in those spots.






    Thanks ~Jessie~

    Ohhh, that looks very nice. I love the triangles. I hope you'll show us the completely finished product, with roses and all.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Look super! Someone did a great job, and those diamond planter spots really add a unique touch.

    My house doesn't have a splash guard around it either, the grass goes right to the foundation.

    The job turned out great and you indeed got a good price for the amount of work that you had done. The diamond design is lovely, too. Good job! Your house has taken on a whole new look.

    It does, doesn't it? Suddenly our house looks so new, neat and clean now.. not like before it looks so beaten up.. and we didn't even touch the house, just the driveway!
