Over the weekend I made two wallpieces for my courtyard garden. The wallpieces will break up the wall while acting as trellises for vines.
The wall has a step design that makes it difficult for spacing. I tried equal spacing between and around the wallpieces, but the edge of the right wallpiece hit a step in the wall that visually wasn’t working.
I moved the pieces to 3 feet from the corners. Still didn’t feel right.
I am leaning toward placing the wallpieces centered with the wall steps. In the center of the wall is a Cordia boissieri (Texas Wild Olive).
It is small now, but should eventually fill the space.
The wallieces were made using simple Bargello embroidery stitches. Materials List–1 inch fence (41″ x 31″), coconut fiber rope, and sisal rope.
Safety when working with fiber–wear a respirator, gloves, and a long sleeve shirt.
Coconut fiber is beautiful, but it is extremely prickly, dusty, and dirty. This is part of what I swept up.
