  • New patio who this? Since it's now officially summer in our new home, it's about time I got my porch ready for all kinds of outdoor chilling. I made a super affordable outdoor couch plus finished the space with lots of boho decor.

    Advice: get some dollar store transparent shower curtains and hang them behind the couch. Even if you tuck them away behind the mesh when it isn't supposed to rain. Doesn't look like it gets a lot of light there and it would take FOREVER for cushions to dry, and they get smelly if they hold water for too long. Learned that the hard way my self! Protect your investment. 🤗

    • @Jessa8891
      @Jessa8891 6 років тому +24

      The rain will just go through the trellis ceiling though. It has a screen on it but rain will just go right through.
      I just don’t think those cushions will stay white for long.

      Jessica Nicole the trellis has plastic roofing on top of it. You can see it at 3:08

    • @Jessa8891

      itsreallymefyi, it’s not plastic you can tell it’s just a screen.

      Jessica Nicole No, if you look above, you can see the plastic. Look past the trellis and the screen.

Thank u so much... I don't have a roof but I'm gonna find a way to put up 4 pillars and hang some curtains
