Southern CA Backyard Corner Needs Beauty!
She already has a beautiful covered patio with table and chairs to eat at so she doesn't want a place to eat. Also, it needs to be pretty low maintenance and able to survive in the California desert.
Also, she is not the biggest DIYer so she is looking for simple ideas on how to spruce this space up on a budget.
What ideas do you have for the space?
