Woman Does Amazing DIY Makeover of Front Yard

  • last year
This woman did an amazing budget friendly DIY makeover of her front yard. She started by clearing the grass and plants from the soil bed. She then poured concrete around the edges of the walkway and attached smaller concrete slabs to it. To make the front yard look more elegant, she placed a large flower pot near the main entrance.

00:00 hey guys welcome back to the channel so I'm taking you guys back a few months
00:05 ago to show you how I started doing a yard makeover so as you can see this is
00:13 before we did the concrete that I showed you guys on the last video just
00:17 explaining to you how again just getting right out of the car onto the grass just
00:22 killed the grass area this area right here around my crepe myrtle tree just
00:27 needed a little more pizzazz so I'm going to be cutting that out and making
00:35 the bed larger and then also up on the front bed I'm going to be cleaning that
00:43 out as well because you can just see the weeds were going crazy so I'm just gonna
00:49 be quiet on this video and let you guys watch and see how it turned out and

02:59 ah
03:01 ah
03:03 ah
03:05 ah
03:07 ah
03:09 ah
03:11 ah
03:13 so
03:22 ah
03:42 hey y'all i got some help out here now don't ask me why my son has on that big
03:47 old coat because it's it's breezy but it is not cold like that it actually feels
03:51 good but my boys out here helping me now let me
03:54 show y'all where we're at boom your girl did that so getting all
04:00 of that pulled out um what we're going to be doing
04:05 is pouring some concrete here and i honestly feel like i can do it
04:10 myself but antonio wants to get somebody to come do it i don't know why
04:14 it's really not a big area but hey whatever i'll show y'all the process but
04:18 so far we've gotten this pulled out they're getting that
04:21 mulch um put up that i dug out yesterday and then i'm gonna finish
04:25 clearing out this area
04:28 so then i also uh went and bought a huge boulder that you see here and i
04:37 like i said i opened up that bed and decided to put that down there just to
04:40 give it a little more interest and i also took the lights off of my
04:45 garage and decided to paint those as well just to brighten up the
04:49 curb appeal a little bit
04:53 and then what i didn't mention to y'all on the last video was that before i
04:59 uh put down the concrete and all that i actually had to move our irrigation
05:04 so i had to dig it up and just move the plumbing over a little bit so uh that we
05:10 wouldn't be putting concrete right on top of it so
05:13 he a girl did that too um but of course the last time i left you guys you saw
05:19 how the concrete pad turned out and it was not the same texture as the rest of
05:23 the concrete so right now in the next clip i'm going
05:27 to show you guys what we used uh to fix it uh
05:32 and the aggregate in it um like regular concrete so this
05:37 it just makes it really smooth so no big chunky rocks in this like you would find
05:42 in other concrete so again let me say for the record you guys
05:46 i am not a professional i just try stuff and sometimes it turns out good so i
05:51 share it with y'all
05:54 so make sure you guys if you are not follow me on tiktok because some of
05:58 these clips that you see that are vertical like this these are just clips
06:02 i've taken from tiktok to kind of show you guys
06:04 a little bit more of the process but make sure you're following me
06:08 at nisi does it on tiktok and nisi does it on
06:12 instagram
06:15 okay all right so i started panicking because it was too thick and it wasn't
06:28 going going smooth it splashed everywhere y'all look at me
06:32 this is terrible but
06:35 semi-successful
06:40 all right you guys so what i'm about to do next is put down uh the pavers right
06:46 now i just kind of got them in place just to see how this
06:49 uh layout would look because i was trying a bunch of different things
06:53 so this is how the concrete turned out it actually did not turn out bad but i'm
06:57 not sure what is going on here i don't know if
07:02 it's still wet or if i need to go back over it
07:07 a little bit um after it rained yesterday it just
07:11 left this spot right here and and that looks terrible so
07:15 i'm not sure why i did that but other than that
07:20 okay um after i use the the layer of top creep i can't think of that flow
07:29 flow coat after i use the top layer of flow coat it actually turned out okay
07:33 um but that spot right there yeah so i don't know i have to do something about
07:36 that but right now we're about to put these pavers down the
07:39 right way which means we gotta put down some base
07:44 and some paver sand and then some polymeric sand which gets hard
07:49 um when you put it between the pavers and wet it and all that good stuff so
07:54 this is the layout i have chosen to go with and now
07:58 i am about to get to work
