Lowe's Spring Makeover Update: Who, what, where?

First off I want to say Thank You! Thank you to all the wonderful families who applied for the Lowe's Spring Makeover. Thank you for your patience through the selection process. We received so many applications full of beautiful families and equally beautiful stories. It was nearly impossible to choose because I would truly love to come to all of your homes, meet you and help you with your spaces!

With that being said, I'm super excited to be traveling to Alexandria, Virginia to help the Glenn family transform their patio into an urban oasis! The Glenn's are a young couple who had the chance to snag an adorable row house minutes from D.C. and desperately want a space to host friends and family (and their pup!) as they grow. We all know how hard it can be starting out young and wanting to hold onto people when it feels like everyone is going their own way. I know I would have died for this opportunity when I was just starting out!

The Glenn's have become a part of their transitional urban neighborhood and they want to continue the revitalization by connecting with neighbors and nurturing relationships with existing friends and family! I know we are going to have a great time making their patio dreams come true!

Project:

Not only are the Glenn's an adorable couple but they also have the patio spot of my dreams! It's like a blank slate, right up my alley, and I've been dreaming of twinkly lights, fire pits and bar carts ever since I saw it! If you saw my deck makeover and my front porch reveal then you have a good idea of my favorite elements for a fun outdoor space!

Inspiration:

Here are a few inspiration pics but I'll definitely keep you updated with our design and how things come together.

Cheers!
