Whilst waiting to build ,we are renting a home that has NO Alfresco area, NO verandah,not even a mere hint of an outdoor entertaining space. This saddens me for two reasons
1.We live in a wonderful climate that allows for outdoor living, especially in the evening, for at least 8 months of the year.
2.Our previous house had a beautiful alfresco area that my very clever dream guy built & it was one of my favourite parts of that house.
He started with a blank canvas....
He measured twice, cut once.....
and settled for no less than perfection.....
& what do ya know.....
It was time for ME to go furniture shopping & sew the perfect cushion covers.....
& toast a job well done....
AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! The serenity!!!!!
I miss our alfresco area, not to mention our beautiful furniture that has been in storage for the last 12 months.
So now I need new inspiration for the dream house.
We have planned an alfresco area as well as a front & back verandah's or porches as some would like to say. I would love a mix between a traditional Aussie homestead & a Hampton's style beach house.
a swinging chair over looking a pool would be a dream come true.....

Your out area at your old house was so beautiful, reminded me of a resort walking between the trees up to the veranda and toasting it was definitely fun!!
I cant wait to see what you guys come up with for your next out door area! x
Thanks for that, im sure when we toast the new outdoor area we won't need to be rugged up in blankets in the summer time. This climate is certainly a lot warmer in the evenings!!!!
I love your funky cushions.
