MAKEOVER...
A tantalising glimpse through the new gate into a transformed garden space, with smart new fencing, tidy lawn and no
mess – a far cry from the clutter in the ‘before’ photo below.
One of the things I like about writing
this regular magazine page is being
able to feature some of the great
customer projects we publish on
our website. It’s great hearing from
customers who send me before
and after photos of their projects;
I am amazed at the results achieved
by people who are determined to
transform their garden into a
designer dream.
One such tale is from Carla and
John Twist, and their reason for
sending it in has something to do
with the large part the new fencing
had to play in the total
transformation of their garden, of
course! Here’s what Carla said:
"Having bought our first house
together we wanted to turn it into
our own little paradise – not an easy
mission considering how neglected
it all was. The garden was worst of
all, as you can see from the 'before'
photos!
"Now it’s finished and we can
enjoy our outdoor space. I still find
myself smiling at how pretty and
light the garden looks. The Hit and
Miss horizontal fence panels we
chose play a massive role in
extending the garden, and being
so attractive, the fence never feels
like a barrier, but more of a beautiful
feature to admire instead. I know it
will all mature gracefully together.
The fence sparked great feedback
from the landscapers and lots of
interest from the neighbours as
well."
What a transformation; it’s all
beautifully simple, with a lovely
minimalist feel and good clean lines,
which maximises the space. Well
done John and Carla; it has actually
opened my eyes to how attractive
our Hit and Miss fence panels are.
I love the way the sunlight shines
through them, illuminating the
panels and creating shadowy
stripes.
Hit and Miss panels are what
we at Jacksons refer to as ‘good
both sides’. If you look at the photo
of the garden through the gate, you
can see what we mean; because
of how they are made, there are
no unsightly rails running across
them on either side. This means
that both you and your neighbour
get the pretty side of the fence.
You can find out more about these
and other ‘good both sides’ panels
