It started with purchasing the large metal "Paris" sign from Decor Steals which I hung by my side patio, and now we have a "french" area on that side of our home. It has been so much fun to create and use this space. I love how yours turned out as well!

You improved your house by putting in French doors that not only give access to your new outdoor living room but also a view of it from inside the house. The pea gravel looks great and will be less work and more environmentally sustainable than grass. Your little conversation areas, the parasols, the lights, the raised beds--they break up the space and make it intimate.

We are in...Your transformation is really fabulous! We are in the process of updating our shallow backyard and are going with a similar design. I love a gravel patio. I had an epiphany reading this blog post. I have a set of cushioned patio furniture that worked great on our large open deck at our last house but our current property has an enormous pine tree that drops needles and sap everywhere. The cushions look nice for about 15 minutes and at $100+ per chair I can't keep replacing them. I think I need to run to Lowes and just buy new chairs for 2/3 the price of a new cushion set! <br /><br />Thank you for the inspiration!
