I don’t know which I like more- the deck or the dog! We took on a composite decking project this past spring- turned into quite a long project but hopefully it will last a long time and not require much maintenance
Such beautiful patio ideas! Truly worth sharing.

Love your patio!! I wish ours was covered, a day bed would be so much easier than finding expensive patio furniture! Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks Amelia!! Yes I think the day bed was around $100 and we have enjoyed it so much. In the winter I just take the pillows and bedding off and cover it with an outdoor patio cover and to protect it.
