Yard + Garden

By suzettegebhardt_creative

Outdoor living and favorites from the garden.

About a week ago, I realized that we didn’t eat dinner outside on the patio a single time last summer! So  I moved everything back up to the patio this week and set up our first outdoor dinner of the year. This is one of those little intentional things that I want to try to do at least once a week this summer.
How often does your family like to eat outside when the weather is nice? 

It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, but just taking your plates outside makes it feel more intentional don’t you think?

One year of slow, intentional progress!

When we started, this new build barn was a blank slate—just dirt, big dreams, and a vision for something that felt timeless and lived-in. 

Instead of rushing, we’ve taken a layered approach… letting each decision build on the last, choosing pieces that feel collected rather than “done overnight.”

This spring, I’m finally bringing the cottage garden to life ✨ Think soft structure + romantic charm:
– tall copper trellises to add height and patina over time
– oversized white planters to anchor the space
– layered textures, vintage-inspired accessories, and plenty of classic cottage blooms

It’s not about perfection—it’s about creating something that feels intentional, welcoming, and beautiful in every stage. More to come as everything starts to grow 🌱💫

Last week I dropped by a friends’ house and she was apologizing for the state of her backyard.

Laughing, I told her “Don’t feel bad, you should see my yard. I haven’t done a thing in it this summer!”

And I truly haven’t, other than planting a handful of plants, pulling a few weeds at the start of the season when I still had energy, and setting up some impact sprinklers on automatic timers.

In past years I loved standing outside at night hand watering all my plants- but we were so busy this summer, that just didn’t happen.

Despite my utter and total neglect, however, I’m happy to report I do have a few survivors, thanks to my diy irrigation.

If you don’t have drip and want to save some time, these sprinklers + a timer are the way to go! I’m linking the ones I use plus some of my backyard and patio favorites.

I hosted a dinner party last weekend and it was magical.

Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing some of my favorite hostess tips and tricks. I hope I can inspire a few of you to host a small get together with friends before the summer ends!

Post workout sauna session AND a thunderstorm?⛈️ Don’t mind if I do!!

My sauna must haves are my Stanley, sauna bucket with essential oil, dry brush and my old Serena and Lily Turkish towel (I linked the current version… I’ve had these towels for years and they still look great!).

If you’re heading to the lake for Memorial Day or a summer getaway, I have a roundup on my blog of all my favorite lake house essentials. We have lived on the lake for YEARS so I’ve tested tons of  products- these are my favorites!

There’s also a FREE lake packing checklist you can download and print on my blog ✔️.

Summer vacay at a cozy cabin calls for vintage style and durable camp classics!

Polywood outdoor chairs are included in the Way Day dale 🙌🏻 and so is this cute wood-look side table. You can grab this cute vintage cooler and classic tartan blanket to complete the look.

No matter how many of these modern Adirondack chairs I buy, I keep finding places for more.

They are SO durable, come in lots of colors, and look great in the garden, by the fire pit, and on porches and patios.

I have the modern version, but I also tagged the classic style. They’re both on sale through tomorrow in Way Day!

I think one of the reasons I spend so much time focusing on home related projects is that we all need refuge in this world, and home can be that. 

Some of my backyard favorites are included in the Way Day sale (ends tomorrow). I’m thinking about adding a few more of these raised beds to my cart- I’ve had them for 3 full summers now and they make gardening so easy.  Also check out the Polywood collection if you. Red outdoor furniture… I leave mine out side 365 days a year in the harsh CO weather and they still look as good as 🆕 .

I was so excited when I started browsing the outdoor and patio decor section of the Way Day sale because some of my all time favorites are on sale! 

It's a great time to grab the metal raised bed planters (just in time for Mother's Day planting!) and many pieces from my all time favorite outdoor furniture collection are on sale too.

Oh, and there are TONS of black and white cabana stripes and some great outdoor planters too.  If your yard or porch needs a little pick me up, consider this your sign.  xoxo, Suzette

Sure, it’s rainy and cold and these days feel pretty far off.

But they’ll be here before we know it, and the anticipation makes it so much sweeter! I love taking ny swing chairs outside (in a protected area!) and enjoying the lake). They’re on sale 20% off right now too!

I already have a fire pit, but I'm thinking of adding this fun, unique chiminea into my backyard design.  I love the shape and the rustic patina.  

They also have a large fireplace too if you're looking for something bigger for your yard or patio this summer.
