I love a great crib repurpose, and I don’t like having an outdoor eyesore like a gas meter. While doing my backyard makeover, everything was looking so nice that I just had to cover the gas meter. It’s nearly impossible to cover all of the things that hang on your house, but if you give your guests “pretty” options, they’re less likely to notice the other necessities of being a homeowner.
This fun and easy repurposed chandelier project is perfect for your porch or patio. Solar lights have changed a lot, and easily charge in shady areas. Hang this from a tree, shepherd’s hook or your porch. It will make you smile every night as it adds a special ambiance to your outdoor space.
Yay! Talk of the Town 175 is live! Really great stuff to inspire you. Most of the weeks it’s so difficult for me to choose just one diy project and one yummy recipe. With the long weekend coming up, maybe you have time to work on something soon.
The great projects continue from the Backyard Camper Retreat. Today’s project is all about those Texas Lampposts. The tall 4×4 post sort of looked naked. To give them some omph, I added wooden bracket holders. Assemble the wooden bracket holders, then add an inexpensive metal bracket from the dollar store. Easy and oh so pretty!
I wanted to update my old outdoor cushions. Using pretty outdoor fabric, I made new outdoor cushion covers to match my new pillows for the patio. The envelope pillows were made with floral fabric and drop cloth material which meant I didn’t have to buy as much of the floral material.
woohoo! It’s Tuesday night, time for Talk of the Town #174! I can’t wait to see what y’all have to share this week. It’s been really crowded the last few weeks. We appreciate you patience a we’ve been working out how the new linky party code works. What will you make or bake?
One of the many diy projects done for the backyard makeover is the whiskey barrel lampposts. Having the tiny solar lights surround the fire pit is one of my favorite elements of the backyard. Originally I wanted larger bulbs but I have fallen in love with the tiny solar lights.
As a lover of wind chimes and one that doesn’t like to throw things away, of course I decided to save this old gal. Some wind chimes need a little more work than others, but I can’t imagine me ever throwing one out instead of repairing it. Do you have an old wind chime that needs some TLC?
Talk of the Town 173 is live! Yep, we have featured great recipes and creative DIY ideas. Two of the ideas feature succulents for those who just can get enough of ’em. 🙂
Do you have some outdoor projects that are in need of repair or freshening up? I’ve been busy doing some stuff around here. With the new backyard space, the rest of the yard is in need of tidying up. Y’all know how much I love my Finish Max paint sprayers, they are perfect for those outdoor projects in need of a fresh look.
Oh my gosh! I’m so excited to finally show you the reveal of my new backyard camper retreat. I’ve been enjoying time hanging out there all by myself–well Lulu Mae is with me. It’s so nice and quiet and nobody knows I’m there. I’ve even been watching t.v. in the evening. Yep, the camper has a hookup outside. I hope you enjoy the tour.
Are you ready for some inspiration? We are back with great features and more new link ups. So many projects and recipes, so little time! We’d love for you to share something someday soon.
