Creating Beautiful Texas Water Gardens and Water Features
Accents of Salado's Gazebo Bed and Breakfast overlooks historic Salado Creek and the famous mermaid spring. The natural slope of the land gave us the idea to create a two tier waterfall and three garden ponds in our Main Street gardens. The natural setting surrounded by nature's water features creates a spot for relaxation while shopping Main Street Salado.

Cantera Stone

Natural stone walkways, patios, steps, retaining walls and water features enhance Italian and Spanish architecture. A favorite construction material used throughout the southwest is cantera stone. Cantera is carved by master stone sculptors into columns, outdoor fireplace surrounds, cantera fountains and sculpture.

Cantera Stone
One of the most sought after accents in commercial and custom home building today is hand-carved Mexican cantera stone. Beginning in the late 17th century, Spanish stone masons, migrating to the new world, discovered cantera as an ideal stone suitable for Mediterranean architecture. Mexican cathedrals, missions and government buildings, constructed from cantera more than 400 years ago, continue to serve present day and future generations. Hand-carved cantera is the hallmark of important Mexican structures.

Cantera Stone
Cantera comes in varying colors, shades and densities. Being a handcrafted construction material, cantera is a high-end application. Commercial and custom home architects throughout the southwestern United States demand its quality and the subdued earthy hues and texture ideal for Italian Mediterranean architectural applications. Used to create ornamental designs, this ancient volcanic stone is also used in balustrades, top rails, balconies, cantera stone columns, window and door trim, crown moulding, coping, interior flooring, exterior flooring, fireplace surrounds and cantera stone mantels.
