Patio Bliss

After seeing a picture on Pinterest as inspiration my husband built me a little haven by our patio using old doors. He hinged them together and secured one across the top. It took him less than an hour and I had so much fun creating a beautiful outdoor space!!

    Thank you for your wonderful comments! I really appreciate them all!! My mom told me about turning the horseshoes around so the luck doesn't run out. The weird thing is most of them don't have holes to nail through so I need to figure out a way to hang them the other way! Thanks again for your kind words!

    I'm making me one right now too. I'm calling it a prayer closet for the garden, I will have a little alter where I can have a moment alone with my Lord!

    I love this. So strange how one of those things sitting alone, like the daisys we would have never thought of putting them together.. but now that it is, I see no regrets for you little lady. Perhaps you have found another ...»

    Yep. Horseshoes hang open side up - otherwise all the "luck" runs out. You used your luck by having such a considerate husband so you should start collecting more.

    The luck runs out if you hang the horse shoe facing down. Turn the shoes and save your luck!

    Wherever did you find your doors?? I need that exact pattern to match the ones in my house already and I can't find 5-paneled ones like that anywhere!

    Laura W I found the doors at the church where I work. They were headed for the dumpster so I took them home!! Kate, the weight of the doors, them all being hinged together, and the door across the top holding it all together is enough to keep the entire structure in place. We had 60 mile an hour winds the other day and the doors didn't even budge!!
