How to Paint Concrete—a Patio Makeover (Page 3)

Psst…this is part 3 of 3. In case you missed it, here is part one and part two.

It still wasn’t rug-like enough for me though. So I decided to hand paint on fringe with this small brush. This was a little nerve-racking since I am not the best freehand painter, but I went with it and LOVE how it turned out. I think the fringe might be my favorite part!

Our patio looked so lovely that we couldn’t bear to put our old furniture back. So we purchased some new outdoor chairs and décor and have already spent several afternoons sitting on the porch after work, talking about life. Now we aren’t embarrassed to say hi to our neighbors either. 🙂

I am so thrilled with how our porch looks. I love the stripes and the fringe and how clean and fresh everything feels!

We still have more outdoor projects coming up (like some awesome DIY shutters!) but for now let’s admire the before and after.
