I got tired of people cutting the corner of our yard! I decided to create a "cactus corner" for the area. It works! In the space I included spike plants and agave I transplanted from the patio area and a red flower yucca plant. It's taking some time for the cactus plants to really flourish. Only the red flower yucca has substantial growth. I don't worry with the rest. I know they're there if no one else does....yet. New Editions are a few salvia plants. I had to plant those because regardless of the cactus being visible, I would still see kids cutting through, making a path AROUND the cactus area. I haven't noticed an ongoing problem recently with people cutting the corner through our yard and notice other residences with cactus corners. Do you plan to create one or something similar at the corner of your yard?
Yes, sort of. I didn't recreate an exact replica of Gotham City; just no. Here is my version of a simple, imperfect city skyline to incorporate into my hubby's 'Bat Cave'. Paint out the window(s) in use. Do not use ceramic paint. It's too watery. For better coverage, use latex paint. I used the same paint I used for the room walls. Let completely dry. Tape off the building outline. Use your imagination and Google or use Pinterest. Paint inside the outline with contrasting paint. When completely dry, carefully peel off tape. Use tweezers to remove the window tape blocks. I had some leftover small bat wing logos. I lightly modpodged them onto the sky.
