Metal Gate

I had another garden project recently that was metal. It was a gate for Hill Country Natives Nursery in Leander. Mitch and Kathy Mitchamore own the nursery and love garden art. I like going to see them just to look at all the really cool art work they have. I've done several pieces for them and like their sense of style. They know what they want but let me design it. I like that.





Recently they had a rock fence built separating the front display gardens from the actual nursery. The rock work on the wall was stunning but Mitch decided he wanted something more. He had Larry Hullums, a really good stone artist, build an arch over the opening in the wall. Then he decided that it needed a gate. That is where I came in. He told me he wanted to keep it simple and it needed an arch to blend with the stone arch. He let me take care of the rest.





Here it is, I hope you like it.
