10 Patio Projects That Won't Break The Bank

Wednesday, May 30, 2018


I'd be lying if i said I was proud of our back patio. It's a great space but its lackin' in terms of decor! It's not necessarily in my budget (or on my summer bucket list) to buy a bunch of patio decor but I may do a couple DIY projects to give this space a quick facelift since we do spend quite a bit time in our backyard now that our little guy is as active as ever! To inspire myself I've rounded up a few of my favorite porch DIY's!


This is an oldie but a goodie- I absolutely love how Liz Marie transformed her patio using thrifted finds including this DIY patio coffee table!
