Weekend Project: Hiding an Electric Meter Box with Grass

We moved into our home last fall and realized immediately that the lady who built the home just never had time to do anything to it beyond what the contractor had done. There are two unsightly utility boxes in our backyard and I just had to do something about them. Recently, I came across some discount plants and bought 6 containers of ornamental grass. I placed three plants in front of each meter or box. We could have bought some more mature grass that would cover the meters immediately but these plants were only $0.25 each! This means we’re covering both meters for $1.50. I’ll have fun nurturing them this summer and watching them grow.
