In preparation of outdoor spaces for the summer, there is nothing more exciting than being frugal about it. I have a mix; from some of my very old iron patio seating to roadside and thrift shop upcycles. Each summer, I add or change things to make our outdoor living spaces come together.
 |
This year we are adding our "new" curb alert pieces. Road Rescue! |
 |
A little cleaning and painting for a new life at a new home. |
 |
This bar stool will be added to a high top piece I built last summer. I'll add that post later when I finish the concrete countertop. |
 |
Just a couple of coats of outdoor black spray paint... |

made these road side pieces match up with my old wrought iron set. (I'll be posting the whole deck and patio tour here soon.) |
 |
Discarded and old is wanted and new again. |
 |
Then at the same time, my thrift shop snag to add to the mix is this iron scrolled coffee table. Patio perfect! |
 |
Well, not perfect yet. Red splattered touches aren't my style. It looks like it came from a TV crime scene. |
 |
Black to go with the rest of my mix and match outdoor space. |
 |
Our older camp chair was green. Spray paint changed that too while I was at it. |
 |
Now, placed on the deck at my grilling area.
(I'm the grill-cook-queen and I wanted to have a little setting in the grill-throne-zone. The "grill throne" is recycled landscaping block and then a concrete pour project along with some lattice panels. A how to and photos to follow. ) |
 |
This became perfect for sipping lemonade or wine while grilling dinner. |
