Back garden design made easy

1.   Take a good photograph of your existing garden from your back door in good light
2.   Print at size A3/ A4 - A3 is best
3.   Buy some A3/ A4 tracing paper
4.   Place a piece tracing paper over your A3/ A4 photograph
5.   Trace over the plants and features you want to keep
6.   Sketch your new design ideas
7.   Agree your designs with your partner - I said garden design made easy, so skip this step  ;^)
8.   Plan your garden project - plants, features and timelines
9.   Do your garden project
10. Enjoy the results
