  • We built a deck around our above ground pool and made out own bench.  Using outdoor fabrics and a few things we already had we made it a cozy spot to sit and watch the kids swim! 2
  • I monogrammed a few pillows for fun.  Since I have an etsy shop and do my own monogramming, I loved coming up with my own ideas for the pillows!

Make your own outdoor furniture

We had a spot that I just couldn't find the right furniture for, so I thought, "Why not make my own?!" We went to Pottery Barn for inspiration, but the prices were way out of our range. ...»

Concrete Garden Path

We made this garden walkway with a mold that we purchased at Lowe's. We mixed the Quickcrete up and then poured it into the mold a section at a time. It was almost like making mud pies. It was a bit time consuming but we were very happy with the end result. It has held up very well as it has been down now for about 3 years.
