DIY: patio makeover.

i love "home makeovers" [yeah, i will call them that]. even when i was a kid, you can ask my mom, i would rearrange the furniture inside my room every other week. i loved the freshness and newness of a room that had just been redone. i absolutely cannot wait until i buy a house one day and get to paint and decorate and fix it up however i want. eeeekkkk, i get giddy just thinking about it.
anyway, for the meantime, it has been so much fun decorating and fixing up the house that kara and i moved into about 2 months ago. two sundays ago, we revamped our patio. we got some plants and candles/lanterns from ikea, some string lights from target, and a new mini bbq! it makes the patio so much more inviting, and we have definitely been spending a lot more time outside :]

  1. Your patio makeover looks great, and it seems like you guys had fun doing it! The lantern looks classy too! I wish you put some more lighting fixtures, though, so the space would be brighter and more lively at night. Your patio looks very cute, and I think it deserves some nice lighting. How is the patio now?
