You’re not going to believe how this neglected patio has transformed into a beautiful, functional & colorful outdoor living space in my backyard! Today I'm making over our patio from start to finish with some DIY furniture and gardening hacks! Because this makeover needed to be completed on a serious budget, we filled this patio with free or secondhand outdoor furniture & decor. By adding in small, affordable changes like $10 string lights and basic landscaping, I’m confident we can effortlessly entertain and lounge around in the summer months! I hope these affordable design tricks give you some inspiration to revamp your own backyard, patio, rooftop or balcony space - despite your budget or experience!

Why do I like her channel so much? Laid back coolness? Realistic? Cool girl? I genuinely have fun watching 👀 and learning. I thought you did a spectacular job using what you had. You pulled it off. Like you said, enjoying your living space.

@louismeyer5132 2 месяца назад

Great job, very mediteranean vibes and perfectly suited to your spanish revival house. Its great to see updates done on a budget as it takes creativity and hard work not just money thrown at it. It also shows the power of paint. Small suggestion about your tiles, a jug of boiling water tipped on any little emerging weeds will kill them overnight and save the need for further weeding.

@livingwithlk 2 месяца назад

Thank you! Mediterranean is the perfect way to describe it! And wow thanks for that great tip, I had no idea😍

@metallicatt316 Месяц назад

All of your hard work definitely paid off. It looks beautiful.

@lindaroyal8161 Месяц назад

Looks really good! Lots of work, very ambitious. You were fortunate that previous tenants left items behind that you could incorporate into your plan. I really like the bench and the color. It's a very nice area for relaxing and enjoying all your work!

Thanks so much! So true so grateful

@jeanettepugh6017 Месяц назад

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

Aw thank you so much!

@ElisEdventures Месяц назад

Omg you have become my absolute favorite DIY and extreme makeover with an affordable budget channel!!!!! 😭😂♥️😮‍💨 You are amazing beyond words could describe especially after watching your sister and nieces bathroom! Wow just wow. You should be so proud at how talented you are ♥️

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

Thank you so much!! This is so sweet : ) 😊😊☺

@ElisEdventures Месяц назад

@@livingwithlk Your videography skills are great too. I didn’t even skip one second to see the results because watching you rearrange broken stone-step rocks is just that entertaining 😂 jk jk. As a stay at home-work-dog mom of six dogs and a cat (she’s basically a dog at this point) I would love to do something similar to my horrid bathroom and horrendous patio deck. I live on the intercoastal, and 10+ boats come by everyday.. everyone and their mom can see that “deck.” I call it the haunted area, but it’s hard to find the time and money so these vids are perf. The pups have their little balcony with their fancy faux dog grass, but not enough room even though they’re tiny devils. Thanks again for making content for us viewers 😭♥️

@gurkov4e 2 месяца назад

Looks super cute! 😊 Idk if you would like that but maybe you can move the green side table between the two chairs, they can both use it for drinks

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

Thanks! I tried but because of the slant the patio is on it didn’t sit evenly :/ so that was the only set up where all four legs of everything could touch the ground haha

@peggymalabuyoc9150 Месяц назад

What a fantastic job you did on your patio area! Looks wonderful. So much hard work! Loved every bit of this video. 🥰. How great was it that some pots and stones were left behind for you to work with. You spent your money in all the right places. Many thanks for this fun video. So enjoyable to watch! 👌🪴🥰

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

Right! Felt so lucky honestly.. 🥰 Thank you so much!!

@donnapecoraro3126 2 месяца назад

You are a natural gardener!! Your curation skill and attention to detail make everything you do beautiful. Wow to California, it’s just already bursting with stunning flowers, those pink flowered camellias are amazing, even your weeds are magnificent. Spring here in the NE is much slower to come. Love your Dollar Tree finds, I grabbed some wire hanging baskets and coir liners in January, they’ll be gone by now. Going to get some seeds if there are any left. You made a gorgeous space, the bench is a great piece.

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

thank you so much! Spring is the one season I love in CA because it’s perfect weather (when it isn’t raining haha). and yes you have to buy all the spring stuff so early before it sells out! I hope you can find some because gardening is so therapeutic :)

@bluecurlygirl 2 дня назад

Such a fantastic job. Have to undertake my own back space in a rental also - no patio just a wide path but enough room for a table and two chairs and some plants - and definitely lights. I'm in Ireland so we don't get that much good weather but I love to be able to sit out when I can. Enjoy your space. You've certainly earned it. Bravo.

@GraphicsGuru37 2 месяца назад

Awesome! Thank you!

@Eloiseat6 2 месяца назад

The one thing I don’t have at my place, a 1920s condo that I love and have recently finished renovating and decorating, is a backyard space of my own. There’s a communal deck, but that doesn’t count. I used to love gardening! So, second best is watching someone else garden. I love the unpretentious nature of your garden and the fact that you like things wild but also well kept. I think the makeover is lovely!

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

Thank you! and I feel you! This is my first time having this space and I know what it’s like to have literally nothing haha. Even then I used to just pot up some small herbs and succulents even if it was communal it helped me feel more connected to nature. So cool you got to renovate and decorate an old place!

@anncastaneda934 2 месяца назад

I was raised in Fresno, married and raised my family there. But, we moved out of CA, and we now have 80 acres in WI. I am new at gardening, my 3rd yr. My husband did all gardening in CA. Now he grows 2 huge veg. gardens, and I'm doing the flowers. I have 8 flower gardens which is a lot of work for me. My show pc. is a claw foot bathtub which I painted like a cow, and my friend made me a huge wooden head and she painted it. So cute! I have trailing petunias and it is just beautiful. Your free bench is so cute. Great job!

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

That’s so cool! I love that you both are gardening :) I LOVE it I’m so glad we have some space to do it.

@piaforbes5716 Месяц назад

Overall, it’s fab! I love almost everything you did; the rug is stunning, and the green and orange combo is one of my favorites. I just wish you’d kept the bench a shade of green or a coral. The blue feels like the third wheel on the date.

@livingwithlk Месяц назад

ah thanks! but that’s not my style 😊 I think a shade of green would have been too matchy matchy for me, and coral isn’t my thing (in design/but clothing wise i love the color!). I really love the blue bc it’s so different and a complimentary statement with the orange and green. thanks so much for watching and letting me know what you think!
