Terrace Enlightenment Corner Nest

• In USA, people have backyards, but here in India, we have terrace!
• A terrace is a place where family bonding takes place, be it BBQ party or a Meditation get together.
• We had a corner which was a bit unused so I thought to convert it into an Enlightenment Corner Nest with creeper plants climbing to give it a good vibe.

Step 1: Planning

• I placed the bricks and the ladder to see how it will look

Step 2: Placing the 1st Layer of Bricks

• Bricks were placed of the 1st layer

Step 3: Cement, Sand, Water

• To get the best result we must mix cement, sand and water in the proportion of 1:3:1
• This proportion gives the best addition property, so that bricks can join together.

Step 4: 1st Layer With Cement

• Now you would ask why I am making the base in such design. The reason is at the end of the base there is a drain from where all the water from the terrace goes out.
• I put some amount of the mixture and put the brick over it, then put another layer of the mixture and joined the other brick to it.

Step 5: 2nd Layer of Base

• Similar to the 1st layer the 2nd layer should also be done one above the another

Step 6: Ladder

• I used an old bamboo ladder
• I painted it black so that it looks attractive

Step 7: Ladder and the Base

• After completing the ladder, I placed the ladder in the position
• I used the cement, sand, water mixture to attach the ladder with the base.

Step 8: Top Layer or the Cover

• I placed a stone slab over the 2nd layer
• After placing the Slab, I put the cement mixture on it.
• I have included a video of that.

Step 9:

Step 10: Conclution

• After completing it I planted creeper plants near it and waited till it grows fully
• This Corner is the best place to do a get-together, doing meditation etc.
