Win a £75 Homebase Voucher with Keepmoat Homes

0 Written by Lisa on 5th Aug 2015 in From the drawing board

This month I’m working with Keepmoat homes to help their customers to make the most of their gardens.

FB sharer - woman - no text

Part of their “Garden Guru” campaign will involve offering advice on social media on how they can improve their gardens and I’ll also be answering specific questions every Friday for the next four weeks.

Each of my responses will then be published in a e-book on the Keepmoat Homes website.

In addition, Keepmoat Homes are running a competition on social media.  Each week, for the next four weeks, Keepmoat will upload an image of a “blank canvass” garden and entrants will have an opportunity to submit a design for the garden.

The winning entry will then be drawn up by a professional illustrator and the winner will receive a £75 Homebase voucher for their own garden.

You can find full details of the competition  on the Keepmoat Homes Facebook page and there’ll also be lots of tips and advice published via @KeepmoatHomes on Twitter over the next four weeks.

Good Luck!

Celebrating 8 years!

RHS Cardiff Flower Show 2015 - Victoria Park Mazda A Front Garden by Lisa Cox Designs

You may have noticed that I’ve been absent for a couple of weeks.  I haven’t been around much as we were in France for a few days (internet is always hopeless there!) and I’ve also been out and about sorting things out for my show garden with Victoria Park Mazda at Cardiff in April.  So hope you haven’t been having withdrawal symptoms…I’m sure you got by!
