The outdoor dry bar is our new favorite spot! And we are so excited to share with you what we did. I took my kids’ abandoned playhouse that had honestly become a bit of an eyesore in the backyard and gave it new life!
We repurposed this playhouse and made a rustic DIY outdoor dry bar. For our project we started with a solid structure and only needed to make a few small structural changes to the front wall. We were able to reuse the wood from the wall to make the bar top. We then add a few coats of fresh crisp white paint. Remember to use exterior paint rather than interior paint. And for even better longevity use an exterior paint with a primer. It will hold up to the elements much better. For storage and functionality we added shelves to the back wall and installed a pendant light fixture over the bar. To bring this project all together we added some rustic decor accessories. Oh of course we added the drinks!

After some hard work and love we were able to transform this well-loved playhouse into a unique place to entertain guests. This type of project can certainly vary in cost and time depending on what your end goal is. Our project was relatively inexpensive because we were able to repurpose a lot of materials and accessories.
No matter what DIY project you’re working on, have fun and give yourself the space to be creative. Paint and decor can always be reimaged!
The new year truly starts once spring rolls around. Springtime is usually associated with a fresh start (especially in places with seasonal extremes!) as everything comes back to life after the many months of colder weather and weaker sunshine. That’s why many of us feel the urge to update our homes and embrace the new green energy that comes with the seasonal change. With that said, deciding on what to redecorate or how to do it can be difficult, especially if you don’t have a ton of experience in interior design. In this article, we’ll provide you with some fun tips and tricks to help you update your home and give it a rejuvenated feel without having to make any drastic changes. Let’s get started!
Some people have a hard time finding the value of sculptural objects and often refer to them as one of those unnecessary interior design things that are just there to make things look a certain way. And that’s understandable to an extent—it’s kind of challenging to place an object that has little to no purpose in the middle of your coffee table without it looking awkward or out of place. That being said, sometimes those decorative objects that have no tangible purpose can actually become the centerpiece of a room and the one thing that truly holds it together! If you want to learn about how you can take a decorative object and turn it into a statement piece in your home, then below, we will give you several tips for achieving just that.
When it comes to finding a professional to make a room or space as perfect as possible, you might be wondering: what’s the real difference between an interior designer and an interior stylist?
