Contained in the graphic is: a tutorial for making your own pallet furniture, a lesson in tiling your patio, and 4 awesome recipes that are all sure to make your guests extremely grateful for coming over.
Here are a few takeaways from the graphic itself.
Pallet furniture is quite easy to make. In fact, after making a chair or two, you can apply the same principles to make all different kinds of indoor furniture too (like sofas and coffee tables). If you are painting your furniture, keep in mind the cushions you plan on using. Make sure your paint is complimentary in color. And, if you are trying to conserve on paint, only cover where the cushions aren’t covering the furniture.
A tiled patio is a little bit of an involved process, but the benefits outweigh any apprehension you may have at first. Tiles have the ability to match any style and they’re easy to clean. Make sure that you do choose a frost-proof tile, which means it won’t absorb water. And, a slip resistant model is preferred to prevent any nasty falls. (You want your guests to come back, don’t you?)
And, finally, the best part, and perhaps the most rewarding— the menu. summertime is all about fresh ingredients— think watermelons, iced teas, mango, mint, and more.
