#ad We’ve been working on a few refreshes in our backyard this year! The sun has worn down a lot of our furniture out here so we are swapping out our weathered umbrella tables with these gorgeous black fluted tables from @veradek . I already had the matching planters out here (and love them BTW), and decided to add one more in the SandStone color for a bit of contrast. #myveradek #reimagineoutdoors #meetyououtside

Almost everything in here was either brought from our Washington home 3 years ago or bought second hand! Piece by piece this room has become a cozy space for our family over the last 3 years. The new stairs are staying and will work into the new design, I love them so much.

It was tricky. But I’m glad we kept going because the look is everything we envisioned and exactly what my son wanted. I still have lots more to do in here, it’s not even close to being finished. But I’m sure loving the dramatic before and after so far. Linking all sources.
