Remember this? This was my Patio floor project last summer. I was tired of the plain green carpet and painted on these faux rugs. Now I'm sick of it all! My little tropical room is just not doing it for me anymore.
This is a 2006 magazine that I have, I've always admired the look of this outdoor space.
Simple enough to pull off. I don't have this big beautiful door, but I have a chaise lounge like this and two little plants holders that will be ok.
I don't have this fantastic fireplace, but I have enough furniture and a fire pit to make this little seating area. I need an umbrella the wind destoryed my old one. Wood was not a good choice.
I don't have this wonderful courtyard but, I have a section in the backyard with beautiful flower beds that I can put yellow and red flowers in and set up a nice seating area.
I have a bench that can serve as this one, and I'm sure I can find a few lovely pictures to cozy things up.
I have a table a round table with chairs, all I need is to pick up some fabric in reds, and a nice rug and a few other accessories. I love the rug in this photo and have already price one at Lowes but hopefully I can do a little better on the price somewhere else.
Then while in Lowes I fell in love with this set, but the loveseat and coffee table alone, is 240.00. So I will be content with my old (I think) LOL!!!.
Here's the old, I've already put it out into the backyard to get started on painting it black, but we are getting a lot of rain. But I think this will be a good week.
These are a few others that I have and they will have to do as well
This is the floor underneath that green carpet in the first picture, I just plan to pressure wash and seal then add the outdoor rug. This is sort of a big project because last year I spent more time on the computer than in the yard, so I have lots of yard work, plus cushions to recover. Hopefully I can find new cushions that wont cost too much.
All in all I plan to be extra busy for the next two or three weeks. See you then! Hope all my hard work pays off! Deb

Deb this is going to be beautiful.
Our new bistro set, at the lake, matches that set for $240.00. We decided to bring the glider from home, instead of buying it. The glider is something like yours. It just doesn't have the coffee table and two chairs. We wouldn't have had room on the deck for them anyway. Try Overstock.com. They have pretty good deals on rugs and the shipping is cheap and sometimes free.
I can't wait to see your garden!!
Cant wait for the pics.
Deb, have fun with your new project. It looks like you've got what you need and the creativity to pull it all together. I can't wait to see the results! laurie
It is going to look great when it's all done but boy are you going to be busy! Big project!
Hi there-this will keep you busy, but a stunning end result-good luck my dear!
Hey girl...it will turn out beautiful...I love outdoor rooms..can't wait to see it Deb...Have fun with your redo!
I can't wait to see how you transform your area! I really like the inspiration pic! You can do it, I know you can.
I am still waiting for it to get nice enough to be outside consistently. Here in Ohio, it might be sunny and 60 one day, then be raining and 36 degrees the next.

I love your inspiration pictures. I can't wait to see how it all turns out. It sounds like a ton of work but should be well worth it in the end!
What a beautiful project this will be, Deb! Can't wait to see it all!
Have a great evening, Deb!

I just love the inspiration garden you have chosen. Your "old" furniture looks great and with the new black paint it will be gorgeous. With all of us on tight budgets right now it really ramps up our creative talents. I know you will achieve a beautiful result. Can't wait to see the final result. I hope you stop by and visit me and all of my DIY projects on a budget @ www.French-Kissed.com

Hi Deb :)
It's going to be beautiful and when you're done it will be yours and not a copy, which is even better :)
hugs,

I love your patio furniture and I think red would really set it off. What a great stone patio you have.
We don't have anything. Apparently the people who owned this house before us tore out the deck to put in a swing set. We plan to lay a brick patio this summer. Big job.
looking forward to seeing your completed project. I just know it's going to be lovely.
Nothing better than old magazines for inspiration on a new project!!!!! Love your ideas, and can't wait to see the end results! Please keep us posted!
