What was I thinking?
(Click here to see original post. and here)
We didn’t get finished, but we’re feeling much better about our neglected space.
Removed the splinter.
Wood screen doors replaced with vinyl.
Fallen tree stumps became side tables.
Removable, washable slip covers.
A roadside rescue table got a new home.
Cleaned the yard sale wicker.
Added stick blinds and Goodwill sheers.
Accessorized with old shells in an aluminum container,
galvanized metal, green plants,
and burlap.
We bought more lumber today,
I hope you’ll come back.

I love that “roadside rescue” table…why do I never see things like that! Seriously, though, your dock area looks like it will become a much loved place to sit and while away summer evenings. I think you will need to treat yourself to a bottle of something chilled and bubbly when it’s finished. It looks great now, so it will be fab when you’re done!
Now you already know that I am presidentof your fan club….but seriously…..you have outdone yourself! I love the colors and the fresh look! Can’t wait to see more! You truly have accomplished your “impossible.”
Thanks for participating in our party!

Casters on those tree stump tables was pure genius. I know how heavy those suckers can be! Your re-styled area looks wonderful. Everything you salvaged and saved certainly was good on the budget, too. It all looks wonderful! I have a deck that need MAJOR splinters removed. Can you say 4-5 inch peeled back ones?! LOL
Just loving what you’ve done! I adore that space you have there on the water.
Thank you so much for taking on our “Impossibilities” challenge!
