Scheming...Outdoor Living

We have work more building work going on at our place at the moment, bringing the end in sight for our new re-vamped outdoor living space! I'm now up to all the fun stuff - picking colours, lighting, decor and all the rest. As usual, we are limited by budget, but that just makes the challenge more interesting!

I am going to make my own light fitting, as I have throughout other areas of my house... I am thinking of a market basket. I have also inherited some cane lounges, similar to these lovely Hamptons style armchairs below, which I am restoring and re-upholstering.
Heres a bit of a concept board for what I have in mind...
1. Roof Colour - Colorbond, Windspray 2. External Wall Colour - Taubmans, Ashen Mist 3. External Trims & Doors - Dulux, Vivid White 4. Chair Upholstery - Warwick, Kristian Seafoam 5. Chair Upholstery - Warwick, Ingamar Seafoam 6. Rattan Chair - French Dressing 7. Butler Tray Table - Whiteport 8. External Wall Lights - Masters Home Improvments 9. Table Accessories - Aura Home Home 10. Outdoor Table - TOFS 11. Basket Light - DIY 12. Outdoor Chair - TOFS

Stay tuned for the finished product to see how it all turns out!
