Hey Guys!
I hope you enjoy this 2021 DIY Patio Makeover! I’m finally painting my patio pavers, building a diy patio bar, and putting together some new patio furniture to create a lounge space!
I hope you enjoy these patio ideas and are inspired to try your own patio diy!
💛💛💛
Amazing makeover👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖 I love your touch simple and gorgeues .. Love you 😍😍😘😘
I love it 😍 and you are a lovely person, thanks for sharing beautiful ideas. Kisses from Tici (Ireland 🇮🇪😘)
Great job. Looks amazing. Just a question what makes the cinder blocks from shifting. No idea about diys lol. Love from Australia
Sorry you answered it lol.
Megan, I really appreciate you sharing your patio makeover ideas 💡 with all of us. Your Patio turn out to be one beautiful space. I am now motivated to do and complete my own patio and have started with refurbishing my mother’s antique cast iron dining table which turned nicely. I will be building a couch, and refurbishing a swing, picnic table and old Adirondack chairs. Whew!!!! I have a plethora of other do to projects that I will be working on it may time to complete, but I will get it done. Again, Thank you so much. God bless. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️
I like how you talked about your husband 😊lucky to have helpful husband so take care of him ,nice video 🤩
I am very lucky 💛
I agree, it was so touching to hear how much you value him. And I'm sure he feels the same way about you!!! 🥰😍
I always appreciate your hindsight advice! It's always genuine and transparent!!! Xo
Just came to comments as she invited solution ideas in comments- I wanted to see if any given. AND saw your comment🧡....it was exactly my thoughts....love that she appreciates and comments on her husband.
You and your husband are so loving towards each other. Never forget that love and take it for granted. This life is way too short. I love your patio ideas and my husband of 41 years and I are about to tackle something really similar. Thanks for giving me the ideas and that sweet little ode to your husband. They are so wonderful to have around and they love us no matter what. Most of the time. LOL. 👍🏼🤍
I would make another shorter “bar top” for over the frig, using shelf brackets instead of the cinder blocks (but keeping it the same height) moving the frig out of that corner and putting it against the wall that has the hose spigot. That would protect it from the rain, give you a place to put stuff that goes into the frig, etc. and provide a cohesive look. Good job, you two.
We have to keep it in the corner because of where the plug is
I agree but leave it in the corner and just make a corner shelf. It will be helpful to have a shelf there to put stuff on to bring out or going back in the house when y’all are eating on the patio.
@@lovinglifeasmegan I would put an awning onto the back side of the patio area to not only keep the refrigerator covered but that other bar area as well. It can be decorated to match your other decor look really nice and keep your family dry if coming in and out if raining.
I like a DIY and the purpose of labor of love or sweat equity concept. The teamwork and finish was nice.
Team work makes the dream work 😉
All of that power washing was so satisfying! I think my favorite part was refinishing the patio pavers! Well done, you two! The decor is gorgeous as well. XO
Thank you! 💛
@@lovinglifeasmegan you’re welcome, and idk of you watch The Golden Girls? Your rug outside on you’re patio reminds me of Blanch’s room! I love it 💚💚💚
You did a gr8 job...I just love it! All your hard work paid off! Do you happen to know what tree or bush is planted in your back yard? You guys have so much privacy. We would like to also but the rabbits keep destroying what we plant. I love the way it looks so lush and green. Thank you!
Megan, granny hugs an thank you !! My new apartment is nearly done. All I have left is move my china hutch from storage. Your tips have helped me have an organized tidy home I love. At nearly 70, this will be my last home.
Yay! So glad you’re in the homestretch!
Awww, let's give your man a hand!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It must be great to have a hubby who has such flexible times from work. Such a help.
You never cease to amaze me! This is an absolutely incredible hang out space for your family. Job well done girl!!
Thank you! We have been LOVING it! I think we finally found a setup that we can enjoy for a long time 💛
Great job ,and has definitely given me some inspiration for my back yard 😍😍
To cover the fridge, just put a shelf over it or a corner like table that’s a little higher and little wider over it... it can be used as an xtra counter space or put a beautiful plant pot on it
It’s an odd shape, so a table would definitely not work
Tell him often how much you appreciate the help he gives you.
I do 😂
You are such a dear person. I like your style and the fact you save for your make over projects and you keep it real. Thank you for sharing. I know it is not easy to make these videos. Having all the camera angles would drive me crazy LOL. May God Bless you and your family. Enjoy your new patio make over.
Filming these projects definitely makes them take longer than if I could just get to it & get it done 😅
Absolutely beautiful!! I am so glad Derek let you get the chair. So cute.
Loved your vid. My husband just did this same thing for a bar/TV stand for me on our patio!!! We also did the same with the patio pavers and painted it gray. I did go with a stone look alike vinyl on the patio because it is covered and he glued that down. Besides I did not have enough to do a real stone slate job. I am budgeting for that in the future. Oh, Derrick needs to purchase a hand truck/dolly to move stuff around. My husband and I are older with bad backs. lol. You all definitely need that dolly in the yard and moving stuff around especially those blocks. Every home needs a hand truck/dolly.
Great job and a standing ovation for hubby's help🙂🙏
🤗🤗
Your patio looks awesome!!!!! If and when you can, string up some patio lights, you can add some posts into some large planters, fill with some cement to hold the posts in place, then add some rocks, or add dirt/ soil to plant some flowers or fun grass. Put up a large corner shelf with brackets over the refrigerator to keep the rain off it, put plants and an outdoor speaker if needed. ENJOY.
I absolutely love this patio makeover! It is so beautiful. I also love your honesty in talking about your budget and how the paint wasn’t in the budget last year. This is only the second time I have watched you but it certainly won’t be the last.
Thank you! I try to always be as honest & encouraging as possible. 💛 it’s easy to feel restricted by your budget, but I prefer to feel freedom in it 💛💛
Love this makeover! Very cool. The only thing I was thinking though is how about butting up the bars so there isn't a space between them? I think that would be a more finished look.
I’m not sure what you mean.
@@lovinglifeasmegan she means that the bar against the wall, move it a little to the right so its even with the other bar, ..
You and your husband did a wonderful job. I admire your beautiful work
Thank you 😍
I love how your husband helps. I too am blessed with a team player too.
Love the way it came out! Maybe build a wood wall around the AC unit to keep it concealed, but still accessible.
We aren’t too concerned about it 😊
It’s going to be noisy when it kicks on
Gorgeous!!! For around your fridge, maybe have it sit on some of the painted cinderblocks and make a weather proof surround (wood or deck boards) might work. (Not sure!!) Good luck and you and your hubby did a beautiful job :)
Thank you!
Yeah Derek! Good job, both of you.
You’re so blessed with your very loving hubby through his actions. Action speak louder than words 😃
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 amen!
My husband takes over my projects. He means well just over enthusiastic lol
😂😂😂
I absolutely love the patio makeover, it looks amazing you both did a great job. So excited for you getting the egg chair
Thanks! We love the egg chair! I was so excited when Derek finally agreed to it! 💛
Wow! So beautiful❤️ Good job! I would definitely be living out there🥰
I have been 😅 I love it so much 💛
You can make a small little table just over the refrigerator to hold cups and stuff
Add some outdoor candles!! ❤🤗🥰🙌 its perfect lighting for hanging on the patio at night
I have some outdoor citronella candles 😊
absolutely love how the space turned out!! and I love that set from target, but the egg chair sealed the deal and it looks so comfy!!
It is! It’s my favorite part of the patio! 😍
Soo looking forward to this video, your last patio makeover is when I started watching your chanel, and have been hooked since, you are inspiring, and I love your content!
Thank you! I hope you enjoy this one just as much!
Suggestions
Paint steps, paint under siding to patio floor, raise refrigerator by using cinder blocks and paint them. You can take 4- 4x4 s put a wrap around top, add a piece of plywood on top of wrap around for a ceiling to protect refrigerator. Your patio looks fantastic
I don’t want to paint the foundation of the house lol
This is why your my favorite channel!! Your so talented and I love how you save for your DIY projects!!, may I suggest getting the fridge off the ground? May be on a layer of cinder blocks to protect the bottom of it. And paint your entry stairs the same color as your cinder blocks. Love what you did with your patio
We aren’t going to paint the stairs lol
Great job!! Everything looks aesthetically pleasing “but”, the concrete that shows beneath or the lower part of the house needs to be painted or power washed. Just saying 😉
Yes ! I was thinking that as soon as she started the paint .
I agree and being OCD, I also noticed the area behind the steps could have been power washed for a more complete and thorough washing of the structure, even though the area was eventually hidden once the steps were replaced.
Yes !! I hope she sees this and paint it
Good job giving him props. God bless!
Gray is timeless and so clean looking.
👏🏻Derek
Sail cloth
I definitely prefer that neutral look. You can do so much with it!
You are blessed to have help on your DYI projects!
I am 😊
Try building a triangle wooden shelf over the refrigerator matching your bar tops. You can use it to keep your bar wear glasses or serving platers for your guests. Stain it the same as bar tops. You can even place some potted plants on top to add color.
You need to put your fridge on a shelf or table. It will look nicer and no bending to get drinks. It’s all lovely! Enjoy!
It’s way too heavy for that
That's good you're giving your man props. 👍
Always 🤗
That pressure washer is a beast!!!!!
It’s so worth it!
You could do a mini bar over the frig. and that would be a great place to put food or snacks...maybe a little lower than height of the setting area so kids can reach food or snacks....Looks great!! Maybe a canopy in the future, another DIY project!! Tfs 👍💕😎🇺🇸🇵🇷
30 Seconds outdoor cleaner cleans removes algae, mold and mildew from anything outdoors, different size bottles. I've used the one that can attach to a garden hose. I spray on wait 30 second. Then spray off with water, of course follow the package directions. Bought at Lowes. I've used this produced many times. It does an excellent job.
That power washer is fantastic, works great on everything.
It is amazing! Well worth the money!
You never cease to amaze me. You and Derek did an awesome job on your patio makeover. It looks absolutely beautiful. You and Derek are so blessed to have each other… team work makes the dream work 🤗
We are very blessed 💛
We are retired and live on a very strict budget, so I totally understand. It's amazing what learning the difference between a "want" and a "necessity" is and go accordingly. I have to say that those "wants" are not missed!!
The patio is amazing!
This space is definitely a “want” but there’s nothing wrong with saving up money over time to be able to make the dream a reality. 😊 that’s the beauty of living on a budget, it gives you so much freedom to have your needs & your wants!
Oh I agree. We surprise ourselves sometimes with being able to afford a "want" and get more satisfaction out of it when we do! 😊
For the mini fridge.. you could build a little cubby from cinder blocks or pavers to protect it. Something to Incase it in?
That wouldn’t do well on top of it though
@@lovinglifeasmegan I don't think I explained that correctly. I meant building a " cabinet" or cubby that you could slide the fridge into. Not to set on top of it or anything, but just a protective barrier. Like a smaller form of what you had, plus it will give you another table top in that corner. 🤷🏻♀️
Oh my gosh thank you for giving your husband praise, I am digging the fact there are husbands like yours exists.
Peace
I try to always express my gratitude 💛
You could get this deck kites..they come in many differt sizes and colors..we just used pvc pipes in garden size pots or mounted the hooks on the roof you could do that and anythg not near the house get a nice size pot pour some rock at pot, pour in cement..all but a few inches to top...once PVC pipe is secure in concrete you can add dirt if you want to plant plants for colour or just finish with mulch...then you can run outdoor light strings along the edge of the kite...looks cozy and lights up your bar
You’ve done a terrific job. Everything looks great. My suggestion for the refrigerator would be to get an outside air conditioning cover. That might work well. I do have one concern with regards to your bars. If the cinderblocks are not attached to each other, my concern would be if someone is leaning too hard on the end the whole Bar could topple over possibly hurting someone.
I envy your egg. Your whole patio looks great! You might want to try an offset/cantilevered umbrella in that corner. If you got an 11 foot umbrella, it would shade most of your sitting area. I've used them for years on my patio. They last a long time, and I can't praise them enough for the shade they provide.
I think we have a 9ft one, but I’ll look into the 11ft 🤗
Megan & Derek: You may want to think about triangular "sails" for both shade & cover. They have a large grommet in each tip (so, 3 each sail). They are anchored, tied off with rope--to, either poles sunk into the ground, and/or into large "eyes" screwed into your house siding. They come in several colors or neutrals, & are very sturdy & weather-resistant. And, they look cool & perform well.
Our friend Kilee did that in her patio makeover!
This space looks beautiful and so inviting, love the goodie basket for the kids too x
I also painted the cement all the way up to the siding on my house, it made a big difference and I was pleased with the out come.
Yes that’s the first thing I noticed, paint the cement up to your siding AND paint your steps to match!!!!
We would have to paint the cement all the way around the house & the color would not match with the rest of the house.
It’s such a shame that the first thing you would notice is what we didn’t do, and not what we did do. Painting the steps to match would be a safety hazard.
@@lovinglifeasmegan I'm not sure it was a negative criticism , with the power wash work, it wasn't hard to notice 'those little bits' especially from the camera angle. Maybe you could do the stairs the same colour as the bars tops xx You defo got a 🥳🥳🥳 bargain with furniture AND the egg 🤑🤑🤑 My yard is too small for it, but want to get a rug similar pattern to yours. You both work very well together x
It’s refreshing to hear people be financially considerate of themselves. I have a couple projects around my moms home I want to tackle when the disposable funds get there.
Improving our homes is definitely something worth saving for 💛
WoW Super Well Done. Your hard work completely paid off. Looks Super Nice. Egg Chair nice choice.
Thanks so much!
Love what you did!!
Well done! Your patio makeover is amazing. Love the patio furnitures especially your egg chair
Good Job! It looks great!
Congratulations this looks great!! Can’t wait to see the bar after you stain & protect the bar tops.
AMAZING, Beautiful outdoor area Megan and family enjoy.
Thank you so much 💛
Wow, the floor, lots of work but it looks amazing. Final outcome is beautiful.
It was so much work, but so worth it!
I love how it looks! I’m so happy for you!

This is couple goals right here! They support each other and appreciate everything the other one does! 😁👍🏻
So beautifully done! I saw a decor show they said men do not liked to be closed I. Maybe that’s why he didn’t like the egg chair? I love it all! Congratulations
Derek loves being cozy lol. He just didn’t like the way it looked, and didn’t think it would stand up to the weather.
Megan, I like your back yard patio great start to your makeover .
