What keeps you going?

November 15th, 2008. Published under Uncategorized. No Comments.

This business has been a true passion for me and I am loving every minute of it. So far Austin Outdoor Studio has worked with some wonderful people, worked on many incredible homes, and gets to be a part of a wonderful community that truly supports local business. There are many things that keep me constantly moving forward. I just wanted to take the time to thank everyone I have worked with and let you know I truly appreciate your business and your help in making Austin Outdoor Studio what it is. Thank You!!!
Of course I have other motivations that keep me going and you know I can’t refuse an opportunity to post pictures of the cutest little man I know, my son Parker. To my loving wife Kristin and the greatest son, Parker.
Thanks again everyone!!

Planting Texas Native Plants

August 19th, 2008. Published under Uncategorized. No Comments.

Many of my customers ask me about what type of plants to put in their planters. I always suggest plants that are native to the area. These plants require less water, thrive in our climate, and are available at all the local nurseries. I would stay away from the big box stores, and go to your local nursery in your neighborhood. You’ll get higher quality plants, better customer service and you’ll feel a sense of pride by supporting a local business.


The Grow Green Guide
Another great resource is available directly from the City of Austin website.
Grow Green Website

Native Plants = GOOD
This page is full of great resources. They list out all the native plants by type of plant, ie Trees, Shrubs, groundcover, etc.
Plant Guide

Invasive Plants = BAD
There is also plenty of documentation for plants to stay away from.
Invasive Guide

The city also prints all the pdf’s in a full color document, The Grow Green Guide.

Happy Planting!!

Just thought I’d throw in some pics of some of the jobs I have been working on lately in addition to all the steel planters I am building.

I had to include some pictures my son, Parker.

New Ipe Planter at Sanctuary Home Bath Garden!

July 7th, 2008. Published under Modern Planters, Uncategorized. No Comments.

Just thought I’d post a quick entry about a new planter I made for my friend Hana to go into her new store Sanctuary, in Westlake. She just opened last week and will be carring products of mine soon. So pop in and check out her new home accessories store. She has done a great job putting a wonderful collection together. The store is located next to Breed and Company just off of Bee Caves in Westlake.
Enjoy!
