    The ingenuity of the parasol DIY is amazing! 👍 I made a table for my living room by painting a plant stand that I had used on my balcony and placing a tray on top. I love it.

    My favourite has to be the side table, so simple and looks really effective.
    Hope your thumb is healing well, always more of a problem when the injury is on the joint.
    I'm now making a detachable sail shade for our balcony, as our dog loves to lay on our bench in the sun but gets too hot.
    White double layer shower curtain and three hooks. All things you either have in your home or can buy from poundland. This can be made to any size just by adding an extra hook per 3f.

      @@julianuttall5825
      No , not that I know of.
      But you take a shower curtain and fold it to make an elongated triangle. Then cut off the excess material.
      Cut and double the off cut into four or more strips about two inches wide and four inches long, fold them and stitch down each of the sides individually, then turn inside out.
      Remember each 3ft will need another of these as it will attach to the hooks.
      Stitch the strips at 3ft apart sandwiched in between the folded curtain on the short end leaving one to be stitched in at the far point of the thinnest end of the triangle.
      All the strips should be made in a lope shape while stitching.
      Then place your hooks into wall, fence or something sturdy at 3ft apart leaving the single hook for the far poit of the sail for last (this way you will have a better fit for the sail as you will be able to pull it into position to know where to locate the last hook) and hook your new shade sail into place.
      It's shower proof durable but I would recommend to take down in high winds and winter. Great for machines Wasing and then just hook up to dry.

  • @lynnedelacy2841
    @lynnedelacy2841 4 года назад

    I can’t remember if I told you this but I love the results so much. I had a wall I needed to disguise so I got one of those stretchy faux ivory covered trellises from Home Bargains for about £20, just put it up with some strategically placed hooks so I can take it down in winter.
    I then put 3 x 2 doubled up bamboo canes, spaced equally so they look like thin tree trunks leading down into flower pots below and step back and it looks like you have some of those expensive clipped square trees growing close together - it really does look effective !

    Hi Mr. C ,once again you have created three wonderful decor pieces which create a extra special atmosphere to your roof garden. I adore all three.You are so innovative and come up the best ideas incorporating useful items to enhance the outdoor experience.Would lights go onto the parasol do you think? Adore those tassels around the parasol,useful idea to have a quick and easy table to fold whenever possible.Pillow looks so neat plus non sew perfect.Your roof garden is wonderful. My compliments to you.Have a great time when the sun shines outdoors as you deserve to have lovely breaks out there. Do you play your music too. Thank you so very much.Take care.

    Hi Mr C! I always love your DIYs, what you come with to decorate your lovely home and rooftop garden which I’m so envious that you have to enjoy the outdoors when the weather is bright and ☀️The umbrella stand was genius can I make a suggestion? If you have some sand or some decorative rocks you can add to the inside bottom of the stand to give it some weight and when it’s a windy day it will prevent it from toppling over onto your head or into the plants. Hope this helps and sorry about your thumb the risks of being a diyer! Stay well and safe! Greetings from Barbara in Minnesota
