Friday Favorites
April 16th, 2021
Happy Friday, lovelies!
Because we’re soaking up this Spring weather again and prepping for summer entertaining, I have devoted today’s Friday Favorites to some awesome DIYs you can do to upgrade your deck or patio. Nothing too intense, these projects are all on the simple side, but boy, do they pack a punch!
First up, if you don’t have a deck or patio, make one! This paver and gravel combo is very chic.
Next, how to restore your deck. Nobody wants to dig out a splinter this summer, so if you have a wood deck make sure you resurface that bad boy before the start of the season.
And if you have a patio, make sure it’s looking top-notch by painting it and stenciling on a beautiful pattern.
Create a private space by blocking out prying eyes or obscuring eyesores with a privacy screen. DIY Passion is sharing how they built this beautiful chevron privacy screen on their blog.
Set the mood. You can’t expect to enjoy your space without some mood lighting, which doesn’t mean turning on the exterior fixture. Try adding some style with inexpensive string lights.
And finally, I know, I know, this one isn’t for everyone. But, if you’re really cool (LOL), consider adding an outdoor shower. They’re awesome for showering off after doing yard work, playing sports, or using the pool/hot tub, washing pets, and of course for enjoying a fresh air shower! You can thank me later.
Have a wonderful weekend, and remember to follow my Pinterest board for more fun, outdoor ideas.
