ad OMG… I finally revealed my Nana’s DREAM garden 🥹🪴 and honestly… her reaction made every second of this makeover worth it.
Welcome back to part 2 of transforming my Nana’s garden with bandq_uk ❤️ Before the big reveal I still had a few DIY projects left to finish… and you know I couldn’t resist getting creative 😂
I LOVE those huge antique stone planters you always see online… but definitely not the price tags 💀 so I decided to make my own using a water butt and tile adhesive!! Everything I used was from B&Q 👏 
After wrapping the surface in scrim tape, I layered on tile adhesive to create that aged stone texture. Honestly, there’s no perfect method to it either — just build up the layers and add as much texture as you want! I used tile adhesive because it’s slightly flexible, water-resistant and sets like stone which makes it SUCH a cool material for outdoor DIY projects.
I made two different sizes and planted these gorgeous palms from the B&Q garden centre 🌴 They were only £32 each and added the perfect tropical vibe to the space. I even topped them with some moss I foraged to make them feel even more established and natural.
And apparently I wasn’t done sculpting for the day because I also decided to build a rocky waterfall feature 🤣 Again… just using tile adhesive and experimenting with loads of different textures and shapes.
Honestly, I’m SO chuffed with how everything turned out… but the biggest question was always going to be… would my Nana love it?! 🥹 
Safe to say she absolutely did 🤍✨
Let me know what you think of the transformation!!
Love, Jack x
