Part 2- Projects we did that other people would hire out. Did we ever mention that we built this patio too ~ it was the part of our yard where we could never grow grass so we thought why not add a patio. We did it in two stages. Behind our garage first for grilling & eating outdoors & having a patio garden. Then we added a hot tub and decided to expand our patio for more seating & a fire pit. Now it is one of our favorite “rooms” in our house! We had a mason build the sitting wall but we have also built stone walls & paths ourselves too! When our girls were little they used to “build patios” with extra bricks we had when they played with the neighbors- I wonder why! 🤣 Behind the scenes throwback pictures coming soon! Still loving our @purpleleafgarden cantilever umbrella for providing shade wherever we want it! Such great quality! diy patiobuild getoutside patiolife newenglandliving LTKMens LTKSeasonal LTKHome
