Back is Sore and Aching and we have just done the Retaining!

We have finally done the Retaining wall after so many months of moving in. Just figuring out what to plant. But I'm happy to have it done!

  1. Wow. Looks great Andrea. I have been waiting to see this and was checking your blog regularly :).
    We will have to make retaining wall around double the height of what you have. Did you do it by yourself?

    1. Yes we did it ourselves :). We sourced our blocks from amber. It costed about $1100. But it wasn't hard to put it together.

    1. Thanks :) hubby found it a little tricky to get it perfectly straight. But.. it isn't perfect hehe
      But you can't see it. Only from certain angles. It is our first retaining wall we have built ever! Haha my hubby is more a computer nerd than a Bob the builder hehe.
      I advise you do your research go to places like amber and ask some questions they were happy to answer ours and recommend the right blocks within our budget. I just find it difficult to choose plants to put with our retaining wall haha.
