DIY fan Kilee (@kileerainbow) is really good at finding budget-friendly ways to amp up your home.
In a TikTok video, she took viewers outside to show how she renovated her back patio using affordable products.
From start to finish, she showcased how she took it from drab to fab.
At the start of the video, she joked in a subtitle that “this was the project that made me question my sanity a bit.”
“My back patio was in need of attention. It was looking a hot mess, which I can relate to,” she said in a voice-over.
First, they started off with new furniture, which included a hot tub that she got for her husband as a bribe for helping her.
“He would have helped me anyway because he’s great, but the hot tub definitely did sweeten the deal,” she added.
Because it’s hot where they live in North Carolina, they invested in a shade and put cheap plastic planters from Five Below and filled them with plants.
Then, they placed them at the bottom of each base to elevate the look.
They also put up some lights and on another side mounted a flat-screen television to the wall.
“I was feeling a little bit extra, so I also put up this glass wall,” she said.
She used the Linx Pergola system to put all of the beams together over the hot tub and create a canopy.
“Without that, I could not have done this on my own,” she praised.
In the end, the content creator said she “absolutely loved how it turned out.”
Many people complimented her on her creativity and appreciated the tips.
One viewer said: “Great job!!!!” while another commented: “Waittttt SLAY.”
Another joked: “Sending this video to my husband haha.”
