Looking to add something to your yard or outdoor space so you can actually sit down and enjoy it? Even the most beautiful, inviting spaces need some furniture to truly be able to stay and enjoy them, and the patio and backyard are no exception. However, for some reason, outdoor furniture tends to be super expensive, sometimes even more than the regular furniture you would put in a home. I am not sure why this is, but I certainly do not have it in my budget to spend $5000 or more outfitting my porch with outdoor seating. However, I love having friends over, and when my family gets together every year, it is pretty much an all day outdoor thing because there are so many kids. DIY your way into outdoor decor and look at these budget-friendly projects you can make for your yard. From couches and chairs to tables and carts for the plants, you are sure to find some easy ideas here. Make a few next weekend so you can start enjoying the outdoors in style.
