Sprucing Up the View

We live in a basement apartment. The "view" (if you can actually call it that) is anything but interesting. I attempted to do a little gardening - which I love - in one of our empty window wells and improve the view from our living room window...

BEFORE: Dirty window, almost un-transparent & yucky window screen, gravel & an empty hole to look at...



AFTER: Sparkling window, new-looking squeaky-clean window screen, a little bit of spring with more to come. I took window box planters and filled them with a few flowers from the nursery and seeds to fill in the empty spaces as they grow.
