Look! DIY Outdoor Dining

062608_outdoor.jpgEating, having a drink, hanging out with friends, it's all made even better when you can do it outdoors. It doesn't take a sprawling deck and fancy lighting to make it happen. Check out this awesome backyard set up complete with a wheelbarrow turned table and a blackboard for...notes?

 
 

We see so many images of the perfectly choreographed outdoor areas that we love it when we see one that looks real and like people actually use it! Goes to show that all you need are some plants, a place to sit, and a place to set your drink or plate down and you're good to go. Of course great lighting doesn't hurt either...

What does your outdoor area look like?

I like that idea of repurposing, reusing. Even if you DO use the wheelbarrow sometimes, it can be used for other things when it is not being used as a way to transport dirt. Or to mix concrete.

Put it to use.

But they need to get one of these for the top:

You just watch, those will all sell out now.

I made a suggestion awhile back on acrylic nesting tables from Target, and they sold out.
