In other news...

The water is slowly warming up and we hope to be selling fish very soon! People are beginning to get anxious, but it's just way to detrimental to the fish's health for them to be moved is such cold temperatures. Be patient! The time is coming very soon!

Would you like to be notified when we start selling koi? You now have numerous ways to follow us. Do you have accounts with Facebook, Twitter or Myspace? Look us up! Are you new to all this? It's OK. Learn about these social networks at this video page.

For those that don't know, a blog is simply a platform for being able to publish information to the web. It's not much different from a website, just a bit more dynamic. With a blog we have the ability to post information immediately, and it's all indexed and searchable! Want to ask a question or comment on an article? You can do that and we will respond.

The blog content is constantly evolving, but instead of checking back all the time for changes, how about being notified via Twitter? The registration is simple and painless. See what the fuss is all about! You can also be notified of things like sales and classes.

A Mystery

Unbeknown to us, we were recently featured in a blog called Clonehenge. It's a fantastic collection of Stonehenge replicas! They were able to find our gigantic Stonehenge-like water feature that resides in Monroe at Falling Water Gardens. Much like the megaliths themselves, how they found us remains a mystery.

The Staycation Revisited

You've heard the word, and with all the doom and gloom in the news you may be taking one soon.

Perhaps you won't make it to the Grand Canyon this year, but the idea of a staycation isn't to simply be stuck at home. You've got to make an event of it or else what's the point? Plan an event with your friends and neighbors!

Does your space need help becoming staycation-worthy? Improving your garden doesn't have to break the bank. We often install projects one component at a time for our clients. A patio or covered space can provide a new sense of your surroundings. The soothing sound from a new water feature can help you to relax and enjoy what you have right at home. You have the power to make the most of your outdoor living space!

Gift Cards are now available!

We've got them! Hot off the presses, we've just implemented a gift card system for our point of sale system. They are re-loadable and available in the denomination of your choice!

 

The temperature is getting warmer but it's not quite warm enough for us to sell fish yet. Keep checking FallingWaterDesigns.com for updates. Do you have your cool season food yet?
