Happy Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours week! It’s the summer edition, hosted by my friend Lindsay of The White Buffalo Styling Co. Welcome everyone from Hi Sugarplum! I’m SO excited to be sharing the reveal of our backyard patio! It’s been over a year coming, and the timing couldn’t be better to give you a little tour before summer hits hard in your neck of the woods.
This is a big post full of lots of photos, click below to read more!
If you’re new to the blog and don’t know much about this space, see the before here. The abridged version is, we bought our house in early 2014 right before we had our first kid. The house was fine, but needed a LOT to make it our own. The backyard was a giant dirt wasteland, and just before summer last year we renovated this entire space except for any furniture or foliage in the perimeter. This year we planted dozens of drought tolerant plants and decorated the space with some lounge and dining furniture. This is what it looks like today!
I hope you enjoyed the tour! Thank you to Lindsay for hosting the BSHT Summer Tour! Hop on over to my girl Shannon over on Burlap & Lace for the stunning tour of her new home!
Below is the schedule for the full week, take a minute and catch up on the beautiful spaces.

Thank you, I love the concrete bench and fire pit and would love to do something similar! I’m assuming the fire pit is gas?

so gorgeous! My hubby would be totally jealous of that bocce court ;)
Obsessed with everything!! LOVE!
Gorgeous!! I love how all the different textures and materials work flawlessly with each other! Where did you get your pots from? I think I recognize the one from west elm but I can’t figure out where the cement one with the tree in it is from! I just got new fiddle leaf fig plants that need a home! :) Thanks!
Thanks Bonnie! I bought the white cylinder pot from a garden in Irvine CA, and I’ve been on the hunt for another ever since! I can’t seem to locate it online, but once I do I will share!
Thank you!!
Thanks so much!
Are these outdoor rugs? If so I am dying for a source list!
They’re vintage persian rugs that I sell on http://www.thevintagerugshop.com, and no, sadly they’re not outdoor rugs. No big deal to bring them in after enjoying them outside!
Where is the leather pouf from?
Great question! I imported this pouf (and a couple others) from Morocco, and will soon sell them in my shop.
This looks awesome! I love the concrete seating areas.
Hi Brittany!
Your backyard looks amazing!
I love the corner floating wood bench! Did you do it yourself? If yes I’d like to know how is it done?
Thank you so much!

Did you ever post info on the concrete fire pit area and how this was done? Looking for sometime on the other side of my pool wall and like to know how this was done. Any info or plan and you can share?
