Finally Finished

Well I have finished most of the deck. I just have to paint the back of the posts.  I am so excited and can't wait to have a cookout.

Love the swiss chard and basket in the corner

The rug is called Mad Mats and I bought it from our local Gracious Designs store. Mine is the Clover pattern that they had in the store.

Love the "grill" on the table. HA

I adore these deck planters that I purchased several years ago at our Evergreen JC store. You just need to make sure you buy the correct width for your deck rails. I made the mistake of not measuring and had to take several back.
Can't wait to show you some more pictures from the garden next time.

Fixin' Friday

I don't know if this officially counts as "gardening" but I am redoing my deck.

As you can see, it has been awhile since it has been painted. Unfortunatly, I don't think the railings have EVER been painted.

I went to Lowe's and bought some solid color stain to restain the deck. I really liked the green color. I know it is hard to tell that is what it was. The stain I chose was Olympic Maximum in Woodland Green. I decided that it would match my "woodlands." BONUS- all the materials I bought, from the paint to the brushes and roller were made in America. WooHoo!

Hopefully I will have great looking pictures when it is finished.
