- You’re not going to believe how this neglected patio has transformed into a beautiful, functional & colorful outdoor living space in my backyard! Today I'm making over our patio from start to finish with some DIY furniture and gardening hacks! Because this makeover needed to be completed on a serious budget, we filled this patio with free or secondhand outdoor furniture & decor. By adding in small, affordable changes like $10 string lights and basic landscaping, I’m confident we can effortlessly entertain and lounge around in the summer months! I hope these affordable design tricks give you some inspiration to revamp your own backyard, patio, rooftop or balcony space - despite your budget or experience!

Why do I like her channel so much? Laid back coolness? Realistic? Cool girl? I genuinely have fun watching 👀 and learning. I thought you did a spectacular job using what you had. You pulled it off. Like you said, enjoying your living space.
I know right? She's so calming idk how to explain it. Can't get enough!
Wow, thank you! This is so kind!!🥰
😍😍
I agree, I'm definately following😊
Hello Ladies… we like her because she’s real and reality is what we all need if we are going to be friends that follow and Help each other!
Great job, very mediteranean vibes and perfectly suited to your spanish revival house. Its great to see updates done on a budget as it takes creativity and hard work not just money thrown at it. It also shows the power of paint. Small suggestion about your tiles, a jug of boiling water tipped on any little emerging weeds will kill them overnight and save the need for further weeding.
Thank you! Mediterranean is the perfect way to describe it! And wow thanks for that great tip, I had no idea😍
Drill some holes in the corners of the round green table so I won’t hold water anymore….Sams has the best deal on solar lights
Maybe turn the top upside down?
This is such a great example of how doing what you can with what you have is not only totally feasible, but the result can also be really fun and thoughtful and unique to your personal tastes! I love, love, love how this turned out.
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰
All of your hard work definitely paid off. It looks beautiful.
😍😍Thank you for saying that!
Every room you touch turns out beautiful
This is so sweet and kind thank you!!!😍
It’s amazing, I want to sit out there sipping on iced tea chatting and listening to some smooth jazz. Cards too😊
Right!! Thank you!!
Can’t wait to see the mature plantings
Me too!!
Very nice. I love it. You made everything come together. I make my own mosquito yard spray every year & have never had any issues. It’s pet & kid friendly too. Take 1 bottle of cheap blue mouthwash like the kind you get at Walmart. 3 cups of Epson salts and 3 cans of stale cheap beer. I open them the night before and pour them into a bowl to go flat. Mix it all together until the salt dissolves. Pour into a spray bottle and hit the yard all over. Choose a day with nice weather and no chance of rain for at least 6 hours. It will last for a very long time but you may need to reapply it after a heavy rainfall. I use this recipe too when camping and it really does work. I used to live on a farm and as you spray you can literally see the mosquitoes, moths etc fly out of the lawn.
Have a great Summer enjoying your new chill space! Show us an update on how your gardens are doing. 😎
You nailed it! Can’t believe this is your first outdoor space. Really turned out so pretty & great color choices!
So kind! thank you! ☺
You have a nice large area to plant and design in. This is the first time I have seen your channel. I am so happy to hear a woman who is will spoken and who is able to think of alternative ideas when worķing on a budget. Good Job!
Thanks so much and 👋 welcome!!
Beautiful! Your back yard looks like a lovely space to spend time alone or with friends and family. I hope you'll show updates as the space evolves.
That's the plan! Thank you!
Things can be so difficult when having to stay on a budget (I know this personally), but you were able to pull off a beautiful well thought out patio for not much money. Good for you. I also love your soft speaking voice. Your video is great. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much!
Love the color of the bench with the orange in the terracotta tiles plus the white chairs.
Me too! It makes me happy just looking at it haha
Wow what an amazing job. Must have a party now to show it off. 😊
Absolutely love your delivery. Very impressed with your style, especially the blue bench. Good finds on all!!
Aw thank you so much!
The bench and coffee table are perfect and beautiful! 😮 great job!!!❤❤❤
Thanks so much!! ☺
Looks really good! Lots of work, very ambitious. You were fortunate that previous tenants left items behind that you could incorporate into your plan. I really like the bench and the color. It's a very nice area for relaxing and enjoying all your work!
Thanks so much! So true so grateful
She’ is that Neighbor Friend Next Door- that love to help as well share!
🥰🥰😊😊thank you!!
Just found her today, 5/21, loved it 👍🏼
That was great no nonsense narration and a beautiful make over.
Thank youuuu!
Omg you have become my absolute favorite DIY and extreme makeover with an affordable budget channel!!!!! 😭😂♥️😮💨 You are amazing beyond words could describe especially after watching your sister and nieces bathroom! Wow just wow. You should be so proud at how talented you are ♥️
Thank you so much!! This is so sweet : ) 😊😊☺
@@livingwithlk Your videography skills are great too. I didn’t even skip one second to see the results because watching you rearrange broken stone-step rocks is just that entertaining 😂 jk jk. As a stay at home-work-dog mom of six dogs and a cat (she’s basically a dog at this point) I would love to do something similar to my horrid bathroom and horrendous patio deck. I live on the intercoastal, and 10+ boats come by everyday.. everyone and their mom can see that “deck.” I call it the haunted area, but it’s hard to find the time and money so these vids are perf. The pups have their little balcony with their fancy faux dog grass, but not enough room even though they’re tiny devils. Thanks again for making content for us viewers 😭♥️
What a fantastic job you did on your patio area! Looks wonderful. So much hard work! Loved every bit of this video. 🥰. How great was it that some pots and stones were left behind for you to work with. You spent your money in all the right places. Many thanks for this fun video. So enjoyable to watch! 👌🪴🥰
Right! Felt so lucky honestly.. 🥰 Thank you so much!!
I love it! I love that you reused many of the items you already had but made it look fresh.
Thank you!
Guuuurrrlllll…..🤯 I thought here we go another power washing video,boy was I wrong. Everything looks absolutely amazing. Plus I always learn something watching your content. So good. Definitely worth all the effort to enjoy such a cool spot.
ahahah thanks!!😍😊 if only I could afford a power washer!
Looks great, you really pulled it together, kind of upscale with a casual vibe. Who needs Matha Stewart?
Haha omg I love it!! Thank you so much!
You did a great job.
It looks amazing! Love that you are also budget conscious and Facebook marketplace is a great place to take someone else’s unwanted things and make it a treasure. Beautiful job.❤
It really is!
You did an awesome job! The patio looks very inviting now! I know you’ll enjoy many good times there with your family!
Thank you so much!! ☺
It turned out really pretty❤
You are going to be big on UA-cam! I ❤ your channel. So many great, helpful videos. Thanks!
aw omg thank you!!😊🥰
I'm so happy this came up in my suggested videos! This is exactly the type of content I love to watch. You did a fantastic job! I absolutely love the outcome!
Yay! Thank you!😍😍Welcome!👋
Gorgeous!!! So creative!!
I was raised in Fresno, married and raised my family there. But, we moved out of CA, and we now have 80 acres in WI. I am new at gardening, my 3rd yr. My husband did all gardening in CA. Now he grows 2 huge veg. gardens, and I'm doing the flowers. I have 8 flower gardens which is a lot of work for me. My show pc. is a claw foot bathtub which I painted like a cow, and my friend made me a huge wooden head and she painted it. So cute! I have trailing petunias and it is just beautiful. Your free bench is so cute. Great job!
That’s so cool! I love that you both are gardening :) I LOVE it I’m so glad we have some space to do it.
You are a natural gardener!! Your curation skill and attention to detail make everything you do beautiful. Wow to California, it’s just already bursting with stunning flowers, those pink flowered camellias are amazing, even your weeds are magnificent. Spring here in the NE is much slower to come. Love your Dollar Tree finds, I grabbed some wire hanging baskets and coir liners in January, they’ll be gone by now. Going to get some seeds if there are any left. You made a gorgeous space, the bench is a great piece.
thank you so much! Spring is the one season I love in CA because it’s perfect weather (when it isn’t raining haha). and yes you have to buy all the spring stuff so early before it sells out! I hope you can find some because gardening is so therapeutic :)
Looks super cute! 😊 Idk if you would like that but maybe you can move the green side table between the two chairs, they can both use it for drinks
Thanks! I tried but because of the slant the patio is on it didn’t sit evenly :/ so that was the only set up where all four legs of everything could touch the ground haha
You did an amazing job and you ended up with a beautiful sanctuary !!!!
😍😍😍Thank you!
Beautiful transformation. You are not afraid of hard work. ❤
Very true and thank you for recognizing! 😍😍
This is awesome, all the sweet touches! Looks like it could be featured in sunset magazine
That would be so cool! Thank you!
Overall, it’s fab! I love almost everything you did; the rug is stunning, and the green and orange combo is one of my favorites. I just wish you’d kept the bench a shade of green or a coral. The blue feels like the third wheel on the date.
ah thanks! but that’s not my style 😊 I think a shade of green would have been too matchy matchy for me, and coral isn’t my thing (in design/but clothing wise i love the color!). I really love the blue bc it’s so different and a complimentary statement with the orange and green. thanks so much for watching and letting me know what you think!
Fantastic makeover! Love the blue and orange/terracotta combination. Just beautiful!
Thanks Amanda!!😍
The one thing I don’t have at my place, a 1920s condo that I love and have recently finished renovating and decorating, is a backyard space of my own. There’s a communal deck, but that doesn’t count. I used to love gardening! So, second best is watching someone else garden. I love the unpretentious nature of your garden and the fact that you like things wild but also well kept. I think the makeover is lovely!
Thank you! and I feel you! This is my first time having this space and I know what it’s like to have literally nothing haha. Even then I used to just pot up some small herbs and succulents even if it was communal it helped me feel more connected to nature. So cool you got to renovate and decorate an old place!
Looks lovely and eclectic! Love how you do things on a budget which is always harder and requires a lot of creativity and talent! You rock! ❤❤❤❤
Yay thanks!! Yes its so hard, definitely a labor of love 😊
It looks so good and now I have inspiration to re do my tiny patio.
Awesome!!! I hope it turns out great : )
Love this!!
Love the color of the bench 💙
So cute!!
You did an excellent job. Very attractive and creative.
Thank you so much 😊
Beautiful!
So cute. Well done!
What an absolutely gorgeous backyard glow-up! You have inspired me to get my backyard together!
Amazing!! Thank you so much!😊
Lovely!
Love it!
Absolutely love it. Shared it with my daughters and my grandson.
Awesome! Thank you!
Beautiful! 😍❤️❤️
Love it. Some great ideas for my patio
I really love it, one thing I do not like is a uniformed back garden. It’s got your own personality in it, looks homely and definitely Got a Mediterranean look/feel to it. I go to Spain and italy Greece It’s so reminds me of the cottages and villas I’ve stayed in and have family that live there in Italy it’s lovely, mine in UK is similar as I copied from Mediterranean yards and gardens.
Thank you so much! I didn't really realize it until afterward and a few other people mentioned that but I totally see the mediterranean vibes and its so funny because I LOVE that look.. I have always been obsessed with Santa Barbara, coastal Italy and Greece and I just find outdoor living to be so chic and enjoyable! So glad others are loving the vibe too 😍 I seriously love hanging out, out there! Also I LOVE all of the LUSH UK gardens and garden shows like Ground Force and anything UK countryside vibes is amazing to me 😍 considering I lowkey live in the desert haha
❤ you did a fabulous job.
Try planting some creeping rhyme between you patio pavers. You won't need much to start with as it will "creep" or spread, it is tough and can be walked on and smells good too. Before winter, dig a few pieces with roots and pot up. If you lose any outside over winter you can replace it with what you potted up.
Thank you for this thoughtful tip! I’ll definitely check it out 😊
I absolutely love it. You did a great job it all came together so beautiful.
Your patio is so inviting!
New to your channel. I have searching yt for great patio ideas. I love how you took old furniture and redid it. You did an amazing job on the furniture, the garden and patio. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hi and welcome!! 👋🏼 That’s awesome!! Thank you!
Very quaint and adorable ❤
Wow! You did such an amazing job. 👏 Great video, very relatable. 😊 Can't wait for another one. 🦋 🐦 🌞
Thanks so much! 😊 More to come throughout the year most definitely : )
Very cute!
I can’t wait to see how it looks in June! 🌸🌷🌺

Awesome! Thank you!
Looking beautiful 😊
Loved it, the transformation was awesome ❤
Wow so beautiful
Looks great.
Absolutely amazing. You have worked so hard
Looks great. I am also trying to redo my backyard on a budget. I brought those stackable planters and haven't really used them. I also brought a ton of seeds. I am now inspired to use them. Hope I get some fruit and flowers.
Omg definitely get out there and start planting! It’s so rewarding 🥰😊 You just need to have patience haha 😊 Thanks for watching!
Love the beautiful colors and how well it all works together! Great job! Enjoy your beautiful space this summer!
I love it ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great job. Over here in UK we use a lot of wooden fencing 6'x6' and I painted them blue, it was fantastic for colour and a backing to all the green shrubs
Great job on the patio’s remodel, love the bench save!
Thank you!!
Fantastic job!
Beautiful Job!
Very inspiring!
Such a fantastic job. Have to undertake my own back space in a rental also - no patio just a wide path but enough room for a table and two chairs and some plants - and definitely lights. I'm in Ireland so we don't get that much good weather but I love to be able to sit out when I can. Enjoy your space. You've certainly earned it. Bravo.
Its so beautiful over there! I can't wait to visit someday.. Thanks so much!
It looks amazing & so vibrant!! ❤️ There’s only one thing I would change & that is to put the little round table between the chairs.
Great job and what a differance it's beautiful
Looks great enjoy it huni 👏👍😉💛
Way to go 🎉🎉❤
Looks very nice !!
Looks very nice!
Wow! What a transformation! It looks great!
Thanks so much! 😊
I like how you did your patio on a budget. It turned out nice, but I would love to see you expanded to world. You can have more space. I’d like to see what you do with it. Have a beautiful day.
That's the plan! Thank you!!
So good💚💚💚💚
You did a great job !!!
GREAT JOB!
You did an excellent job🎉
Wonderful job for such a great price. Love it.
