Back Deck Makeover/Pergola Reveal
We have lived in our house for 8 years now & it seems as though each year we have worked on and/or added to our outdoor space. It has always been a work in progress, but this year, I think we have finally reached a point where we can say that the back deck is DONE!! With the addition of a pergola, outdoor curtains, & a fireplace, we have completely transformed the space into a backyard oasis!
A look at the space as a whole.
One of two entertaining areas.
Outdoor fireplace from Lowes.
Dining area.
Window box full of petunias & succulents serve as a centerpiece.
DIY curtains made from bedsheets. Then I added the stripes to the bottom with paint & painter's tape.
Here is a look at our back deck last summer.
And here is a look at our space now.

Marilyn Pat Jurmanon May 10, 2020I'm so jealous! What a lovely pergola and patio area. I would love to hang drapes on my patio. It is so lovely.

Your deck is beautiful. Thanks for sharing. My question is; what are the dimensions of your pergola? (Outside of post to outside of post) Thank you!
Sorry where did you get your fireplace from?
