Outdoor Living | The Perfect Pergola
If you have been with me since last summer, you know that we have yet to do anything with our backyard because we will be putting in a pool in the coming years. While we have the backyard drawings done and the timeframe for the project nailed-down (given the age of our boys), that doesn’t keep us from longing for it now.
This past weekend we finally had the chance to dine outdoors (we usually do in the summer), and I found myself tossing out the pool design for a plan that’s doable today. I found myself day dreaming of beautiful backyards, complete with; semi-mature trees, an array of colourful annuals, an outdoor dining area along with an outdoor living room. One thing I keep chatting up is having a pergola in the design - I love them. I especially love them equipped with lighting…
It seems I’m building on my ‘likes’ from last year… barn board tables, outdoor cabanas, outdoor showers or read all my outdoor living posts here.
