Our Poverty with a View

Clean it up

Posted by Brittney | Filed under Decorating

We’re lucky enough to have a private patio right off our living room at our apartment. There is a privacy fence around it so it sort of feels like a bonus room.

We had to do some serious cleaning before we could do anything fun with it. So I swept and dusted and then was immediately grossed out by how filthy it was.

I scrubbed down our Adirondack chairs. Can you spot my faithful helpers?

I added a small throw rug to soften up the concrete. It’s an inside rug but with the weather being perfect 99% of the time we aren’t too worried about it being ruined.

We’re also scouting out a cute little table from IKEA to set our drinks on and maybe a plant or two. Right now it’s perfect for us to enjoy the summer!
