backyard ideas diy
So in true Liz fashion, she decided to paint a mural last year on her wooden deck. She started with using two coats of paint and primer and then just let her mural evolve naturally (I’m extremely impressed as I would have absolutely needed a plan. But that’s clearly the difference between artist and non-artist). So if you love the design from last year that’s how she did it.
But this year Liz wanted to give her deck a fresh look and did this very cool checkered pattern in even cooler colors.
The lighter peachy color is Sunset Drive by Behr and the darker color is True Copper also by Behr. This pattern seems pretty user-friendly. So if you are wanting to do something cool/modern to your outside patio this may just be it! Here is a highlight on her Instagram that takes you through the journey with more tips.
Yard Ideas & Inspiration
This is not a beginner DIY but if you are handy (or someone in your life is) you too could have a greenhouse like this one. Ursula has a detailed materials list here but for the cliff notes version, she painted her already great shed and then added this wonderful little greenhouse to it using recycled windows to keep the budget manageable. So for about $1000 Ursula was able to make this little slice of heaven!
If you aren’t quite at DIY greenhouse level, she has A TON of smaller projects that are much more beginner-friendly like this DIY Copper Obelisk Trellis or this Garbage Can Privacy Screen.
As I was writing this post, I remembered that my dad literally just finished a VERY cool DIY project and really wanted to share. He didn’t say it but I could tell he was excited that he was going to be featured:) So here is his new, totally DIY’ed Salt Bath and Shower:
