I've been working really hard on this and thought I'd share it with you. I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

Thats really lovely

Well done - I'm sure kids are going to be really creative in your new area - hope they have as much imagination as you.

May be a silly question but where did you get your tree trunk seats from - I went for a walk in local woods at weekend and saw lots of whole cut down logs and said to my husband could I get one in the car, and he said that if I carried it, he would put it in car! In the end I was lucky enough to find one piece of log cut into an ideal stepping stone for my garden, but I want MORE!

That looks lovely! What a great place for the lo!

**tash 1** · 13-09-2012, 12:11 PM

Wow this is what I have in mind where did you get the tree blocks from? and did you have to secure them in somehow?

**acorns** · 13-09-2012, 02:06 PM

It looks wonderful. I'd love one but OH won't surrender part of the garden permenantly to mindees

**PixiePetal** · 13-09-2012, 02:13 PM

I have logs

loads as we have a wood on our farm but DH won't let me have them on the grass in the garden as he wouldn't be able to get the ride on mower round them

If only I could move them when he is working

no chance

Might have to extend the patio a bit and have them there, love the idea

**Monkey1** · 13-09-2012, 06:03 PM

That's really beautiful! X

**lynnfi** · 13-09-2012, 06:12 PM

Wow!! Beautiful! I've been dreaming about logs for a few years now...
And the fairy idea and older children's ideas are so nice! Magical!

**lynncjt** · 13-09-2012, 06:53 PM

Fantastic! Would love to have one, but not sure how much use in the cold North East Scotland, it feels freezing here today!

**Ballette** · 13-09-2012, 06:58 PM

That's really lovely

I got some logs for my garden when I had a static caravan, but they've rotted in the rain

Have you treated them with anything?

Thanks so much. I havent treated them with anything as yet but will be before winter sets in.

One thing I ought to mention which I hadnt thought about....Ive got to get all the stuff off the fence so dh can stain the fanels, then put it up again!!!

oops!

I am really chuffed with everyones comments, thanks guys!

**Maza** · 13-09-2012, 07:36 PM

It's just beautiful. What lucky children! I'm sensing a theme here - OH's and their unappreciation of tree stumps!

**silvermist** · 13-09-2012, 07:44 PM

Its funny because when I was trying to explain it to dh he was like "I dont get it, I cant imagine it"
I have to say though, he really likes it. Thing is its not permanent, when I decide to finish minding I can just take away all the wording etc and plant shrubs in there.
