Our DIY Patio Video Tour

August 9, 2017 By Christina Dennis 9 Comments

Summer’s not over yet, friends, and I hope you’re able to enjoy all of the rest of these warm summer nights we have before Fall hits! We’ve definitely felt fortunate to finally have finished our back patio this year, and we’ve been loving entertaining there and also just relaxing together after a busy day. I revealed our modern French country back patio a few weeks ago, but today I wanted to give you a video tour of the space styled a little differently, plus explain in a little more detail how we made the DIY reclaimed tile and pea gravel base.

This look is a little different than our earlier summer patio look. The latter was a little more feminine and colourful.

By switching out some pillows and adding a little more ambient lighting with string lights and candles, this look is little more sophisticated and dramatic.

It’s perfect for those late summer nights that we want to enjoy outside!

We’re still so infatuated with our Creston patio set from The Brick -(it’s holding up so well through the torrential downpours we’ve experienced lately) , and this giant umbrella from The Brick is my favourite way to make this space usable as an outdoor office with my laptop and phone in hand.

  • Are you all longing for Spring like I am? I'm trying to embrace the session, seize the day and all that lovely stuff... but meanwhile I'm sprinkling Springy decor and making Springy DIYs with all the hope I can muster. 🤣 I don't know if it's the weather or another flu coming on, but every muscle in my body is just aching and it's sure not helping me enjoy the cold! (This DIY dollar store floral arrangement looks great on all my tables - I keep moving it around! 🙌 You can get the tutorial to make it on my #YouTube channel or here in #IGTV.)
