Getting Ready For Summer

Summer means lots of days spent out on the patio enjoying the sun and watching the grandkids paddle around in the pool. Our stamped concrete was a little worse for the wear so we decided to paint it. Try to match the color of natural looking stone with paint is challenging. Even though we could not duplicate the look exactly we like what we ended up with. 
The color of the majority of the patio was a light brownish taupe color. The trim was a lighter tan color. The trim came out looking odd and too bright when we painted it so i decided to model the tan color with a little of the main color. It took a while but we like the results. So bring on the sun and fun!


The next project...the deck. New stairs and new stain.
