Hi there friends! Even though my current view is of our snow covered lawn, outdoor living is on my mind. On my weekly trip to Target the other day I found myself lost in their “outdoor section.” I spent a good 40 minutes there, taking pictures, thinking, measuring. Leave it to Target to once again cloud my mind and leave me wanting a complete outdoor makeover. Whether you are looking for a few modern-rustic additions or for an entirely new look Target has something for everyone. And we all know how good their prices are, especially when you take into account their ability to be right on trend.
Hi there friends! Today is the day, I am finally sharing my new outdoor privacy screen!! It’s a nice blend of modern & rustic and it gives us a little more privacy from the road. We live on a corner lot across from the bay on a very small piece of property. So any additional coverage that makes it feel like a retreat away from the rest of the world is exactly what we need.
Hope you are having the best start to your spring! I can’t tell you how much I am enjoying the warmer days and being able to play outside later. Everything is beginning to bloom and that is inspiring me to start creating my outdoor spaces again. Each year I make a few modifications, I add some new things, do a few DIY’s and move pieces around to make it feel fresh and different than the years before. This year my first order of business is to change the seating on my front porch. It is an expansive space and I know it can handle a big piece so I decided it is time to add an outdoor sectional to the main area.
