I’m putting in a new flower bed and would love to be able to buy spring plants to spruce up the new bed. Thanks for the opportunity to try for the gift card!
Ahh projects – reclaiming our rentals big lot. First plans a veggie garden in the weedy raised beds. Then perhaps a wildflower meadow in an old dog run…
Our spring project is to clean up our front yard! We’ve been in the house for a year and half and the yard is so unruly!

Like you we have an enlist list of spring projects. On the top of the list are fixing our front porch, the wood is starting to rot and is pretty dangerous for a 2 year old (outside project) and get our 1967 bathroom remodelled (inside project – since spring always brings lots of rain I like to have inside projects also!)

Painting will be my spring project.
There are too many to list. A grill is probably on the top of the list. But outdoor furniture, playground for the kids, and upgrading the garden are definitely there as well.

Reseed the front lawn
This would be wonderful to win. We have a big yard project coming up!
Our front yard has some black tarp down since our landlord doesn’t want to plant bushes. But he did say we are allowed to plant flowers. So we will be doing that 🙂

I really want to get my first veggie/herb garden going this year! I’ve got a few seeds planted in pots indoors but need to move them outside in the next few weeks. I want to create a special garden spot for them!

We always have projects or “things” that need repaired around the house (such as the old bathroom floor) but I would love to win this for my Father-In-Law. He lost his job almost two years ago and is in desperate need for “home repairs” that have been put on hold due his current situation. This would a fantastic gift for him! Thanks for the opportunity.
