Amazing deck.. Lovely Home furnishing items. I love to spend my vacation at this place.

My summer project goals are to finish painting the outside of house (started last year and only have a few spots to finish up on - and if we don't finish soon it will sit for 6 more years), add edging to 2 of the front flower beds and the third project (and why I share is it reminds me of your project) is to add 3 of these backyard privacy screens to the yard. I don't want to add a fence, but would like some privacy and when I saw these knew it was the perfect solution: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/91831279878407704/

Good luck with your projects and look forward to your sharing the outcome.

Funny! I do hope you get your projects done and get to enjoy them. Love the trellis! My outdoor space horrible right now! With 40 mile an hour winds, dust, and even a few tumbleweeds, we don't get to enjoy outside much right now.

Oh absolutely people leave their pressure treated wood to "sit"--we are in a new area and surrounded by a sea of pressure treated fences now waiting 3, 4, 6...8 years to stain! We stained ours after a year and were told by some we had "lost the beauty of the wood." Maybe if you used beautiful cedar or hardwood, but pressure treated?! We used Benjamin Moore stain after many people told us it goes on and lasts better, although I don't really have experience otherwise. That and our neighbour knew a guy at the store there too! If your budget allows, I would really get a few tester pots to try first-local variations will change a colour so much-the colour of your house siding, how much shade etc. Even the colour on a rainy day vs a sunny day! We are hoping to finish off our yard this year finally too--we've been here for 4 years, but have had two more babies in that time so projects have crawled along! My advice for deck planters when you have a newborn--succulents! Large pots--less watering! And my favourite trick is to buy the giant already grown hanging planters and transplant them into my own deck pots instead for instant giant planters. Good luck with the new baby!

Our new deck has been "sitting" without stain for 8 months now! As soon as the rain stops, it is our plan to decide on a stain and get that stuff on there! I'm fairly certain we will go with a Benjamin Moore stain, which one I don't know yet. Decisions, decisions, decisions...
