A lot of us like to host house parties and BBQs during festivals and vacations or family events. But we need a big space for that. If your backyard isn’t big enough or you don’t have a porch or your house doesn't have a terrace, we have a clever idea to make use of the space most of us have - A Carport. It makes the classic space for a party for your friends and family.

You know how some seasons in life are defined by certain projects? Well, this summer our main goal has been stepping up our game in our outdoor space and the biggest item on the list was completing a carport makeover so we could use it as a large covered porch! I really wanted it to feel like you were on the porch of a fun Airbnb in Palm Springs and so far it's been a game changer in our outdoor/entertaining life— I'll show you all the changes we made just in time to enjoy the end of summer and the start of fall...
This is a cheap and simple patio cover made from easy to find materials and requires almost no experience to build. The cost for all the materials is only about $700. Once the parts were all cut, my wife and I were able to build the entire frame in a day. I can't tell you how much this has improved our backyard time. The cushions on our patio furniture used to always be wet. Now we have nice dry chairs to sit on every evening, rain or shine. I purposely designed this to use only materials that were cheap and easy to transport. Basic 4x4's, 2x4's, and 2x6's. And nothing over 12 feet long so it would all fit in my 4-Runner. No heavy parts or complicated cuts. I designed the overall dimensions to fit my house/patio situation (Roughly 10' by 13'6"). I do recommend the Kreg K4 Pocket Hole system for this project. I use a lot of pocket holes in my designs because it produces strong joints that look clean and professional. Plans include: - List of Materials - Animated Video and instructions - Cut List - Detailed Assembly Drawings - Digital CAD file for reference (STL and Parasolid*) *I recommend uploading the .x_b file to Autodesk A360 file viewer and using it for reference on your phone or tablet as you build. It allows you to select each part and see the part number. This is VERY useful and makes the building process super easy.
Our All the Angles Moroccan Wall Stencil is a great modern, Moroccan-inspired, geometric stencil pattern. With tile elements reaching almost 10 inches in the large size, this triangle allover pattern can be used as floor stencils for a faux tile design. The medium size helps you achieve a Wallpaper effect on any wall you stencil it on. Large, 5 inch tile shapes can be easily painted in various colors, or paint a stripe of color as a base for an interesting focal point to your finished wall. Both include a FREE ceiling filler element for easy stenciling at the ceiling line. To decorate small DIY projects with a similar look, use our All the Angles Moroccan Craft Stencil.

Have you considered that you should invest in a carport? Check out these 3 reasons why we think it's a great idea!
Okay, here is part two to this post. Those of you who are good at this blogging stuff need to tell me how to download more than five pictures at a time. This is getting frustrating. Anyway, this is the carport that went with the patio in the first post. John and I want to build a carport similar to this one when we can afford it. I grew up in a small ranch style home with an open air carport attached to it. I have many great memories of birthday parties and tricycle riding under that carport. My own children loved riding their scooters there. I would love to recreate that at my own home. Notice the ceiling fans. Isn't that a nice touch? Do you see the side porch. They called it the man porch. Here is a closer view of the man porch. Do you know why it is called that? An even closer view still doesn't reveal the reason. Just step around the corner and you will see....the grill! Now isn't that porch every man's dream? I know John would love it. I hope you got some great ideas from this double post. I sure did. Now, all I need is some money to make it happen. Tomorrow I will share my very favorite garden of the tour. Hope to see you then.
