Patio Makeover - More Than Halfway There

Don't worry, the shutters aren't hung yet.  This is just a quick post.  I mentioned before I had a two days off to make it a four day weekend for me to work on and finish this project.  Things we're going smoothly until it all of the sudden came to a screeching halt.  My mother-in-law fell ill and had to be admitted to the hospital.  She's stable and will probably be there a couple days more. Not sure when we'll get to finish this project but I'm sure it won't be too far off but this is what I have so far.  In the meantime, spend precious time with your mothers and make sure to let them know how much you love them!

  1. I hope your MIL makes a full recovery...yes, our worlds can be turned upside down in an instant.

    I wanted to tell you how much I like your ideas for the patio. Did you know they make static cling vinyl stick-ons to cover the window that look like the lace curtains in your inspiration photo?

    Might be easier than curtains!

    1. Rettabug, what a splendid idea! I have some old lace curtains from when we lived in Germany but I will definitely check the decal ones out. It's amazing what they come out with these days. Thank you also for the kind and understanding words about my MIL. She unfortunately is not doing better and is under hospice care already. She's hanging on by a thread :( not sure when I'll finish my patio but it will just have to wait a bit more. Thx again for everything.
