      I also liked how you provided a one year update. It still looks beautiful.
      One recommendation, consider buying bulbs and plant them in some buckets. They can be planted based on the seasons and if you plan it right you could get flowers all summer long without having to replant anything.

    If anyone needs to add drainage holes after planting, they work well when drilled on the sides of the container, too. Just do it as low as possible.

    Girl, you and I are kindred spirits. I know about “the zone”. I would do all sorts of home improvement while pregnant. Once I painted a dining room during a tornado warning with sirens going off, WHILE PREGNANT. My friends were in their basements and crawl spaces and I was painting 😂. My three kids are 20-somethings now, but I am still a DIY queen. I am about the stain an air conditioner unit screen I built right now. If you got the skills, keep your money and keep up the good work. Your balcony look very nice.

    Absolutely love how it turned out! I'm all for making the patio or balcony an extension of your home, not just a storage dump. Mine is simple, a table and two chairs, a grey outdoor rug (wall to wall) and a flower pot, but I keep it tidy and I love that it's a nice looking extension of my small living room. But most of all, I LOVE and appreciate the sweetness and respect with which you address your adorable babies.

    4:08 I've done a fair amount of rehab and construction work, for pay, (!), and it does me good seeing another woman who is capable with tools, builds, DIY, and fam! It gets old looking at do-overs of massive gardens, by companies I'd never afford, or the same old DIY stuff from Dollar Stores. Keep up the great work.

  • @BuntstiftKunst

    I really love it!!! Its amazing how the balcony looks kind of enclosed but at the same time open with more privacy, a bit like a winter garden... In germany its sadly forbidden to make many changes of the appearance of the balcony people can see from the street. At least in rented flats. But the plant trays are great idea for our big windows for inside 💗 thank you so much 😘

    @jlheelan Рік тому

    Loved this tutorial! I did something similar but based on your experience with the buckets, I opted for clay pots. And I treated the ends of the posts to prevent them from rotting while in contact with the soil. Then I drilled drainage holes where the cement levels off using a downward angle to ensure complete drainage. Next I plastered 2" dia landscape fabric to hide them and sprayed the whole thing with textured paint. I planted vining jasmine and even a year later everything looks great. Thank you for the inspiration!

I am also super impressed that you did all this work while pregnant! The smell of paint made me nauseous back in my pregnancy days! Then again, pretty much everything did. I liked the gutter planters more than I expected I would. Perfection! Try keeping some flowering annuals in their plastic pots and add them to the buckets. Maybe they will survive. Your little boys wrapped up in the blanket, because they wanted to watch and be near you, are so adorable!

I involve him in the safe , age appropriate parts of the project. Happy DIY; ing to everyone out there.

    New subscriber here from Australia. Thanks for sharing your renovation on your patio. It looks fantastic BTW. You and your husband did an awesome job, especially as you were very pregnant. Me, I would have fallen off that patio whether I was pregnant or not. Your children are adorable and very well mannered, kudos to you both for raising them to have good manners. I think they will all be very hard workers when they grow up from watching their parents doing a lot of work together. My kids are all pretty hard workers and all my grandchildren (21 of them) all like to do lots of work outside in the garden or in the shed. It’s great watching them do things. Looking forward to more of your videos. God Bless you and your family.
