      Another amazing transformation!! I liked the fire pit the most as that thing looked ready for the dumpster before you gave it a fresh look that fit with everything else in the space.. not a huge fan of the article items but that is just me.. Overall the finished project is ready for a design magazine.. Your brother in law once again looked sincerely impressed! Great Job Kristen!

      And transfer the ferns to real hanging baskets that are not plastic. They might be able to winter them over inside. My inlaws get a couple years out of ferns... keep them in their basement under grow lights in winter.

    This gave me so many great ideas for our backyard space. We're on a budget so new furniture is out of the question, but I love to thrift, so I'm going to seek out things I can recycle or upcycle. I love all your lanterns, and the black and white theme. I'm definitely going to make a foliage wall with some faux greenery and flowers. Brilliant idea!

    Beautiful BUT u definitely should have STAINED the wood before putting all this furniture on it. It needed it bad

    Great furniture pieces. Love the black, white and cream color scheme. I have never heard about Article furniture before. Both areas compliment each other.

    Every makeover video I have watched, except for Alexandra Gater's, combines white, grey and black with some plants and string lights thrown in. Just saying lol. Are all of you afraid of color?

      I completely agree. Even some colorful accessories that you can change out over time would be nice

      @@zoeb.72 Glad to hear I am not the only one. Design is more than white, grey and black. Use some color and imagination people and don't be afraid. As they say, ?it's only paint.? I do like the more muted colors and would never paint a room red.

      I also prefer black/white/brown furniture but I do add colourful accessories. Those are easy to replace, the big pieces are too expensive to replace every time you want a different look.
