Although we like glass-top tables, mirrored chests, ceramic garden benches and tables made of metal or some other man-made materials, we are still in love with solid-wood furniture, and wood is still the most-used material in furniture construction.
: I have a backyard that has gotten patchy and ugly. When we moved in, the grass here was in bad shape. Then, with our golden retriever and being out of town, it got worse. We want to remove our pretty turf from the front and go to desert landscaping. Could we move that nice grass into the back and start over? Should I give up on grass in back and go to just a combination of groundcovers, sand and rock and paving? I do not want artificial turf. We moved from southeast Idaho and so we are used to a hostile environment, but we did have water up there.
